After the Bank Holiday bonanza, a quieter day's racing, but Ffos Las plays host to what looks a very competitive handicap, where a case can be made for almost all the runners...

Yes Mr President is a lightly-raced handicapper, who was very impressive when winning the Old Borough Cup in the mud at Haydock last September. He bombed out in the Cesarewitch next time, and this is his first race since.

Gala Evening has been a reliable servant over hurdles and on the Flat in recent years, recording his fourth win over two-miles on polytrack at Kempton on his recent return. He was not extended there but he has a career-high mark to overcome now.

Sheshali is a useful hurdler and he has won his last two starts on the Flat, staying on late to land a handicap at Wolverhampton in January. He has bombed out back over jumps since but he is still unexposed in this sphere.

Hindu Kush won a listed event at Leopardstown last spring but has mainly been below form since. He has tumbled in the weights as a result, though, and he is of serious interest on his return for Ian Williams.

Manjam was a fairly useful performer in France for Freddie Head. He won twice over hurdles for his current yard, but produced a laboured effort last time and he is not easy to weigh up on his return to the Flat.

Hearthstead Dream has not won for a while, but he has not been running too badly over hurdles for his current yard this winter, catching the eye at Gowran last month. He has a fair bit on his plate here from 6 lb out of the weights.

Verdict

Hindu Kush is potentially thrown-in on his first start for Ian Williams, and looks the one to side with, Sheshali is unexposed in this sphere and rates as the biggest danger.
