6 Horses Challenge At bet365 Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)
Mr John Nallen
Dual bumper winner who put his experience to good use to get off the mark over hurdles at Killarney (2m) in August. Found life tougher when third of 6 in Grade 3 company latest but very much the one to beat back in calmer waters.

Le Soleil Racing
Hasn't been at his fairly useful best on the Flat since joining his present yard but made quite an encouraging debut over hurdles with cheekpieces refitted when second of 8 in 2m maiden at Uttoxeter recently. A big step forward required to trouble standard-setter Minella Hollow, though.

Claxby & Co
£31,000 4-y-o, Sholokhov gelding. Dam, fairly useful 3m hurdle/chase winner, is a sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) Ten Ten. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points in April and worthy of consideration now going hurdling, for all that he may require longer trips in due course.

The Acre Bottomers
£14,000 6-y-o, Diamond Boy gelding. Brother to fair hurdle winner/chaser Hardy Diamond, and half-brother to modest chaser Mistymal. Off mark in Irish points at third attempt in April but Loopy Mag is seemingly the stable first string on jockey bookings.

Peak Racing
Fair maiden on Flat for A. Slattery (stays 10.5f) but hasn't offered any encouragement on either start this year and looks best watched on this switch to hurdling.
