A few with chances, but CAPTAIN COBAJAY is fancied to get back in the winning groove now he reverts to fences given he still figures on a winning mark.

RACE SUMMARY The vote goes to LONDON EYE, who has taken well to hurdling and the manner of his C&D novice success suggests that he has more to offer. The 5-y-o may have most to fear from Burristo and Hackbridge, both of whom are also making their handicap debuts in this sphere. The latter has been knocking on the door on the Flat of late and he is second choice. 1-2-3: 1.LONDON EYE (USA) 2.HACKBRIDGE 3.BURRISTO (IRE) KEY colours
