STAND GUARD....+17 - WON 2/1
VALDAN....+14
UNDER FIRE....+10
HUCKING HEAT....+9

Five in-form rivals to consider here, but STAND GUARD was a very impressive winner for us last time out over course and distance a fortnight ago, and although he has been raised 12lb since, he won as he pleased that day and is capable of defying the rise!

BETTING ADVICE : 2 POINT WIN : STAND GUARD - WON 2/1
"capable of defying the rise"...12lb higher in the handicap, STAND GUARD confidently completes his hat-trick as predicted at 2/1 . Another All Weather winner for betcast365 members!

NORMAN THE GREAT....+16 - WON 9/4
FLOW GENTLY ALONG....+3

NORMAN THE GREAT is undoubtedly, one of the most disappointing and frustrating novices in Alan King's high profile yard. He made a very encouraging hurdles debut last season when beaten 6 lengths by Nicky Henderson's Binocular. Considering that one's current position in the Champion Hurdle betting, it is clear to see why Norman The Great has far superior form to his rivals here. He failed to progress in three subsequent outings last season and quite frankly, his attitude to the game has to be questioned. However, he did turn in another top-class performance when reappearing at Acot two weeks ago, battling all the way to the line behind highly-rated Leo's Lucky Star. A reproduction of that form would make him a formality here and despite the question over his consistency, he is clear top-rated and must be backed!
