A close-up second at Fontwell on his hurdling debut, PROFIT COMMISSION has the best recent form on show. He can land this with normal progress at the chief expense of Velvet Cognac, who has gone backwards of late having placed on a couple of occasions last year. It's hard to make any sort of case for the remainder with hurdling form but Until Forever showed a glimpse of promise before fading in a bumper at Huntingdon and may figure on her first start hurdling.
