Progressive hurdler last season who stepped up on return when runner-up over C&D in November. Not seen to best effect at Cheltenham since (helped force pace) and no surprise to see a better showing.

Successful over C&D from 7 lb higher 13 months ago but seems to retain little enthusiasm after a trio of lacklustre efforts there this term, well held fitted with blinkers dropped to a seller latest

Respectable efforts in defeat over fences last season for Philip Hobbs. Low-key return for new yard but bit of encouragement (on back of wind op) when midfield over hurdles here (21f) subsequently.

Timeform Verdict Timeform Verdict

An interesting race with the vote in favour of FRENCH PARADOXE. He got firly back on track when defeating next-time-out winner Flash Collonges at Newbury in December and further improvement is likely in the offing now handicaping. Miah Grace, Pop The Cork and Elysian Flame head up the dangers.

Betting Forecast

8/1 Shannon Bridge (Ire), 5/1 Miah Grace, 50/1 Some Buckle (Ire), 25/1 Sakhee's City (Fr), 25/1 Kayf Adventure, 11/2 Pop The Cork, 7/2 French Paradoxe (Fr)
