Second in a Listed handicap at Market Rasen last month, the progressive PISGAH PIKE sets a high standard in a race like this and can concede weight all round. Hugos Other Horse ran over longer trips over hurdles season but has won a bumper over this distance and is probably capable of better than he’s shown so far. Peace Prevails finished third at Fontwell on his jumping debut but was beaten a long way. Cherry Cola was beaten when unseating her rider here last month but has place claims.
