Formscan - LITTLE THUNDER (8) was a decent third at this track in a handicap hurdle earlier this month on his last start. He scored over 3800m at Dieppe in May 2023 and should be back to his best form. IBAN ROQUE (5), who was below par in the same race last time out. He is better judged on his previous consistent placed form, which includes a second over track/trip in 2023 in a Listed hurdle. ICEBERG DU LARGE (6) and KING OF SAINTLY (7) can duel for minor honours.
