BETHPAGE (5) filled a minor prize two back in a hurdle (4100m) at Cheltenham then again ran a good race to finish second last time out, beaten a neck, in a hurdle (4600m) at Market Rasen. Major player again. JAYTEE (6) returns from a 489-day spell. Concluded the last prep with a win in a hurdle (4900m) at Doncaster, scoring by 7 lengths. Has the ability to pose a serious challenge. UP FOR PAROL (2) wasn't far from the placegetters when resuming from a layoff last start, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth in a hurdle (5100m) at Cartmel. Normally hard to beat with the run under the belt, with two wins from five second-up runs. Decent chance in this line-up. LIHYAN (3) missed the frame two back in a hurdle (4860m) at Haydock Park. Bounced back last time to greet the judge by 1.3 lengths in a hurdle (5000m) at Huntingdon. Must be included.
