WHITEWINEWEDNESDAY goes off the same mark as when landing a Sedgefield handicap hurdle under Patrick Mullins last week so this former point winner looks sure to make a bold bid if taking to fences. Walk In The Valley is another with a pointing background and the fact his good second in a course handicap hurdle last November came off a 9-month lay-off suggests his absence since may not be an issue.
