There is very little between the top three in this race when it comes to official ratings. Slender preference goes the way of ROGER POL (3) who will find this easier than when pulled-up in a competitive hurdle at Sandown last time. Holds strong claims on a runner-up effort at Leicester prior. Form of a latest RECOUP (2) novices hurdle second at Sedgefield took a boost when the winner followed up at Hexham. Could go well. MEATLOAF (1) brings some smart jumpers flat racing and may strip fitter for his fifth-placed finish here last month. DAN'S CHOSEN (7) is also considered.
