DIAMOND KODA (1) did a reasonable job when he finished second in a hurdle (3900m) at Doncaster two runs back. Franked that form when just 15 lengths away in second last time out in a hurdle (3800m) at Haydock Park. In form and will take some stopping. POLICE ACADEMY (2) returns from a spell of seven months, and has been successful first-up in the past. Kicked off last prep with a solid second in a hurdle at Uttoxeter over 4000m. Solid top-three chance. DOC MCCOY (4) has not been a factor of late. Two starts back was out of the money in a steeplechase (4340m) at Fontwell Park. Most recently he was eased out of the race in a steeplechase (3900m) at Fontwell Park. Capable of getting things back on track. VICTORIA MILANO (3) has missed the frame since a minor placing three starts back, the latest effort a fifth in a hurdle (4800m) at Ludlow. Bold showing expected this time.
