FormscanBy John O'Riordan - A three-time winner over hurdles, WOODSTREAM LAD can exploit his lower chase rating. Given that he has only had the three starts over fences, the Philip Rothwell-trained gelding remains open to further improvement in that sphere. His prominent racing style should be ideally suited to this sharp track, especially in such a small field. Time Marches On returns to chasing, having run over hurdles of late. Almost certainly a better chaser, the nine-year-old has plenty of experience at this level. Third cover course and distance last month, Bynx should be capable of better after just the two runs over fences.
