Made it 2-2 under Sean Bowen on latest hurdle start at Southwell in October, and having proved better than ever when runner-up in an all-weather handicap on return, he could be the one to benefit if the pace collapses.

Keen-going sort who didn't look to benefit from more patient tactics when eighth of 15 in a strong novice handicap at Sandown, though is still potentially thrown in on his Flat form (2024 Derby runner-up), if he can become more tractable.

Purchased for 8,000 gns from the Brian Ellison yard and ran respectably when fourth of 7 in a mares' handicap at Newton Abbot on stable debut. First-time visor (replacing cheekpieces) ought to sharpen up her jumping and she's weighted to be competitive back up in grade.

Quirky sort has recorded 2 decisive wins from 3 completed starts over this C&D. Wasn't able to dominate on the Flat at Windsor last time (following a second breathing operation) but could make a bold bid back in a small-field handicap hurdle.

Timeform Verdict

This should prove tactically fascinating given the headstrong tendencies of AMBIENTE FRIENDLY and Hello Sweety, with preference for the 2024 Derby runner-up, who remains on a very tempting hurdles mark.
