Ballyrock is a winning pointer who showed promise in bumper in January and returned to make successful hurdling debut in 2½m maiden at Hereford earlier this month. Type to progress but thrown in at deep end here.

Double Ross' standout effort came when making all to win novice hurdle by 14 lengths at Folkestone (17f, heavy ground) recently. Longer trip should suit but taking on far stronger opposition now.

Fill The Power has progressed well of late and made it 2 wins from last 3 starts when beating South Leinster 7 lengths in novice at Newcastle (2¾m, soft ground) last month, though good deal more needed in this.

Fingal Bay looked something special in winning all 4 starts under Rules, including in Grade 2 events over hurdles around this trip at Chepstow, Cheltenham and Sandown. Will continue to be very hard to beat.

Hard To Swallow is a point winner who made a successful bumper debut at Ffos Las in March. Running much better race over hurdles when falling 2 out (close third at time) in Grade 2 Chepstow event won easily by Fingal Bay.

Top of The Range had to work hard to land the odds in bumper at Ffos Las in April, but impressed when making successful hurdling debut in 2½m maiden there last month and looks a smart prospect.

Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Fingal Bay
2. Top of The Range
3. Fill The Power

Timeform View: Fingal Bay is one of the most exciting prospects around and can stretch his unbeaten record to 5. The Nicky Henderson-trained Top of The Range was impressive on his hurdling debut at Ffos Las and could be one for the forecast.
