Itso Fury is the only one of these to have run over hurdles recently but he was pulled up at Exeter having never really travelled. Honneur D'Ajonc could be interesting back over timber for the first time since March last year but Call Of The Wild probably has a bit to prove now. KILLALOAN (NAP) was pulled up when on a four-timer at Sandown in April and tailed off when favourite on the Flat at Bath last month but it would be no surprise to see the Nicholls runner bounce back here ahead of the returning Tanganyika and Ilanz.
