The usual small field for the Kingwell and ALEXEI and Rubaud are the pair to focus on, with narrow preference for the former, an improving young hurdler who looks up to this level judged on the strength of his handicap wins in the autumn.

Has come back a bigger force this season, bagging valuable handicaps at Ascot and Cheltenham (soft) in November, notably the Greatwood. Shaped well when finishing third in another premier handicap back at Ascot last time and has excellent claims on his first foray into graded company.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosAscot1m 7f 157yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle3/13Cheltenham2m 87ySoftHurdle1/18Ascot1m 7f 157yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle1/11Chepstow2m 11yGoodHurdle2/9Newbury2m 2f 183yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle8/9- 1RubaudJ: Sam Twiston-DaviesT: Paul Nicholls15-5113Age 89/415/82/1

Smart hurdler/chaser who won the Elite Hurdle for a third year running over C&D in November. Ran about as well as could be expected when 9½ lengths third of 6 to Sir Gino in Christmas Hurdle at Kempton on most recent outing and big player back down in grade.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKempton Park2mGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/6Wincanton1m 7f 50yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle1/4Kempton Park2mGood (Good to Firm in Places)Hurdle1/4Punchestown2m 75yYieldingChase5/6Aintree2m 3f 200yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase5/9- 4Secret SquirrelJ: Paul O'BrienT: Hughie Morrison5/3F1F-Age 75/16/111/2

Benefited from a slightly more restrained ride when landing a good prize at Windsor (2m) last season. In process of running another good race when falling last (likely to have been placed) in William Hill Hurdle at Newbury on final outing. Off since and faces a stiff task at the weights here.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewbury2m 69ySoft (Good to Soft in places)HurdleF/17Windsor2mSoft (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle1/14Ascot1m 7f 152yGood to Soft (Soft in places)HurdleF/12Ascot1m 7f 152yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle3/10Sandown Park1m 7f 216yGood (Good to Soft in Places)Hurdle5/20- 3IntellottoJ: Robbie DavidT: Daisy Hitchins4/3-133Age 616/120/118/1
