Formscan - RICES POOL won on his Rules debut at Taunton before showing up well for a long way in a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree. The son of Milan has the potential to be one of Ben Pauling's better novice hurdle prospects and gets the vote in what may prove to be an informative contest. Midnight Jukebox commands the utmost respect after winning a bumper here in February, while the Dan Skelton pair Rene's Ocean and Ricky Roma are worth a market check.
