HANSARD (1) represents a notable local yard and is expected to improve on second chase attempt after fading to be fourth of five on chase debut over 2m2f at Kempton nineteen days ago. Finished third in last seasons 2m G2 Kingwell Hurdle at Wincanton. Looks hard to beat in this line-up. Stablemate TAITA HILLS (3) made the frame twice at this venue last campaign. Below par ninth in a 2m5f soft ground handicap hurdle at Newbury during March but open to plenty of progress now chasing for the first time. Holds claims. Fellow stablemate OFFICER OF STATE (2) returned to jumping with a 1L success contesting a 2m2f handicap hurdle at Fontwell four weeks back. Can fill third spot.
