TIMEFORM VIEW Runner-up 3 times off higher marks over hurdles last season and came on from his reappearance when scoring at Aintree off this mark 18 days ago.

RACE SUMMARY:

CREMANT won off this mark over hurdles at Aintree 18 days ago so a reproduction of that back over fences would make him the one to beat. On Springs has taken well to chasing and is feared along with the top-weight Captain Ivan.
