Sent off favourite on handicap debut last time, THEWOODCORNER wasn't able to find any progress when third at Newbury 22 days ago, but he shaped as if in need of a stiffer test so he could yet do better upped in trip. He is preferred ahead of handicap debutant Mossy Fen Coolio, with Manigod also considered.

Fair 2m Flat winner in France and has matched that level in 4 starts over hurdles, winning going away in a Chepstow juvenile in January. Unable to justify support on handicap debut when third at Newbury last time, but he's well worth another chance upped in trip.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewbury2m 2f 183yGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle3/9Huntingdon1m 7f 171yGood to SoftHurdle2/8Chepstow2m 16ySoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle1/7Sandown Park1m 7f 216ySoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle6/8Saumur1m 7f 200yFlat1/14- 10Mossy Fen CoolioJ: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.T: Jonjo & A.J.

Irish point winner who made encouraging debut under Rules when fourth of 17 in maiden hurdle at Wincanton in January, form boosted since. Ran to a similar level when second at Bangor 22 days ago and he remains with potential now handicapping.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBangor-on-dee2m 3f 123yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle2/10Wincanton1m 7f 50yHeavyHurdle4/17- 1MilldamJ: Gavin SheehanT: Jamie Snowden0-965P4Age 87/17/115/2

Without a win this season but bounced back from a lesser effort in a major 2m handicap at Newbury when fourth of 11 at Stratford last month, despite needing the emphasis more on stamina. Longer trip should suit as he drops in grade.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosStratford-on-avon2m 70ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle4/11Newbury2m 69yHeavy (Soft in places)Hurdlepu/15Windsor2mSoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle5/14Haydock Park1m 7f 144yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle6/9Haydock Park2m 2f 191yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle9/9- 5ManigodJ: Harry BannisterT: Warren Greatrex2221Age 515/213/27/1

Half-brother to high-class hurdler Vauban. Fair form on the Flat in France and stepped forward from finishing runner-up on first 3 starts over hurdles when making a winning handicap debut at Ludlow in February.

In first-time cheekpieces, was well backed on stable debut and got off the mark over this C&D last month. Without the tongue strap (now reapplied), ran creditably under a penalty 10 days later when third of 15 at Chepstow. One to consider.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosChepstow2m 7f 131yGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle3/15Ffos Las2m 4fSoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle1/8Ffos Las2m 7f 191yHeavyHurdle6/7Warwick3m 2fGood (Good to Firm in Places)Hurdle6/7Newton Abbot3m 2f 105yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle3/6- 11El GavilanJ: Richard PatrickT: Clive Boultbee-Brooks0721115Age 514/114/112/1

Rejuvenated since fitted with cheekpieces, completing a hat-trick at this venue when getting the better of Fresh Speculation in February.

Beat a pair of next-time-out winners in novice hurdle at Sandown in February last year. However, has run poorly in 3 subsequent outings (over fences the last twice).

However, well held on handicap debut at Cheltenham next time and, making first run since leaving Emmet Mullins, he was below form in a Chepstow novice in December.
