J P Manus owns Kandari

"Kandari seemed to get outstayed by subsequent Cheltenham winner Attaglance at Market Rasen but he travelled strongly through the race and can go one better..."

Timeform run the rule over the Betfair. Don´t Settle For Less Handicap Hurdle at Newbury on Friday...

Petit Robin was a very smart chaser in his time but not seen since fracturing a shoulder in January 2011. Betting should guide as to what is expected from him back from a break and over hurdles.

Topolski won his first 3 outings over hurdles, completing hat-trick in Grade 2 at Aintree last spring. First signs of promise this year when third at Fontwell last time but needs to progress again.

Gibb River won his first 3 starts over hurdles last season and made promising start to this campaign, close third in good Sandown handicap in December. Disappointing next time but still lightly raced.

Dream Esteem is lightly raced over hurdles, showing herself better than ever last month when winning handicap at Chepstow by 1½ lengths from Charm School. 9 lb rise does make life a bit tougher.

Chesil Beach Boy - NR

Grams And Ounces left Seamus Durack and was much improved for new yard to win handicaps at Hereford, Leicester and Ludlow in December/January. Another 13 lb higher mark to contend with as he bids for 4-timer.

Tony Star made a winning debut over hurdles at Huntingdon in January 2011, and right back on track with good second at Wincanton in December. Not seen since injuring himself at Cheltenham later that month.

Kandari was a Fairyhouse maiden winner and County Hurdle fifth back in 2009 for Noel Meade. Very lightly raced since but well backed for new yard before finding subsequent Festival winner Attaglance too strong.

Sacrilege is an ungenuine hurdler who is one to avoid these days, often causing trouble at the start.

Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Kandari
2. Gibb River
3. Grams And Ounces

Timeform View: Kandari seemed to get outstayed by subsequent Cheltenham winner Attaglance at Market Rasen but he travelled strongly through the race and can go one better this time. Gibb River and Grams And Ounces could prove best of the rest in a competitive event.
