THINGER LICHT was beaten in a seller when last seen over hurdles but he's made giant strides since joining Dan Skelton and was in good form over fences in May. Bridget Andrews rode him to victory at Worcester and he'll take some stopping off this mark if transferring that progress back to the smaller obstacles. Lucky Landing has also been chasing but doesn't look as well treated. The winner failed to frank the form of Hawdyerwheesht's Worcester second on Friday but Cut The Corner should go well having chased home Street Entertainer at Worcester last month. Kings Bayonet has had six runs on the level this year in decent company so is also respected.
