MY FRIEND SEAN (1) brings consistent form this season following a 3.25L victory in a 2m handicap hurdle a month ago at Chepstow. Leading contender. UGO BINGO (4) won at Wincanton Boxing Day and recorded another strong run when 2.5L second contesting a lower level 2m2f handicap hurdle at Fontwell. Can do well again. The Moore team have two in this with OFFICER OF STATE (3) and LUNA EFFECT (5). The former posted a 7.5L runner-up effort at Fontwell and maintains ability to go close while the latter arrives unexposed but holds course experience. Interesting.
