Verdict

None of these can be ruled out with preference for FALCO DES PINS, who continues to impress with his jumping. The Winslow Boy is next best with his latest run easily excused.

5	Capitalised on a falling mark with something to spare at Ludlow (2m) in February and followed up in similarly comfortable fashion at Leicester (15.9f) last week. Remains well treated on pick of his French form and hat-trick certainly looks possible.

4	Failed to build on novice hurdle success here last season but back on track sent chasing when third over C&D on return. Latest run best excused (slithered on landing half way) and can make presence felt. 2nd Pick 4 The Winslow Boy Jockey: Ben Poste Trainer: Tom Symonds J: Ben Poste T: Tom Symonds	100	-	-	-	17%	Scratched

3	Bred to make a chaser and immediately improved on the form she'd shown in maiden/novice hurdles when making a winning chase/handicap bow at Uttoxeter on return. Disappointed at Wincanton since but worth another chance back from a break. 3rd Pick 3 Blacksamssenorita Jockey: Brendan Powell Trainer: Joe Tizzard J: Brendan Powell T: Joe Tizzard	98	-	-	-	29%
