One of those races that are normally filled with horses on recovery missions. This year is no different. Are the stayers Hurdle contenders? Probably not! Are they Champion Hurdle horses? Definitely not!
One horse that stands out for me is Irancy. Seventh in the Supreme before winning at Fairyhouse and Punchestown in Grade 2/1 company.
Failed to fire so far this season in two runs, so it's up in trip for him. He has looked a tad slow so far this season. Is this a run to get a nice handicap mark for the spring festivals? Or is he here to win over this trip and open more doors? He's rated above the majority of these. If he settles and stays, then surely he's too good.

I love the way this lad has been campaigned with this race in mind. Former point winner. Won a couple of early affairs at Market Rasen before disappointing at Cheltenham. Willing to forgive him that.
Then bumped into Old Park Star before regaining the winning feeling at Ludlow.
On form alone through Old Park Star, he must be close here. He's yet to race on forecast ground, but all Twiston-Davies horses handle it. Some even improve for it!
This lad is hardy, has a lovely mark, and will enjoy the fast pace. Fantastic each-way angle.

Whether he actually runs or not is another story, but if he does (I think he will), then he simply is the one to beat. It's his first time in open company and he lacks experience, but he is just top class. He has so much scope over a fence, looks straightforward enough to ride, and has plenty of improving to do, which is scary. This will be a test of his ability. Nicky has used this race for plenty of his novices, so it's a well-trod route. I think he wins this before going on to absolutely hack up in the Arkle.

I love this mare. In the past I have called her the most talented horse in the yard, and I still stand by that. She has slightly disappointed over fences after having a positive start in the Colin Parker early doors. Back hurdling today is a great idea. She is a Grade Two winner over hurdles. I'm not sure the favourite is all that reliable. Hollygrove will really dig in and fight today, and I don't think they can match that desire. She wins.

A horse who continues to be underrated. Winner of the Savills at Christmas. Always runs his race and is a model of consistency. The win at Christmas was no fluke. He clearly stays the trip and handles the forecast going. With plenty of question marks around the opposition, he surely is a solid option.

A competitive affair, as you would expect for a Pertemps qualifier. This season, Double Powerful has been unlucky and good. He started novice chasing but only finished one of those three races. He went back hurdling and got really unlucky when the jockey was unseated after a faller in front of him. He ran in the Lanzarote and then put it all together to finish a fine second. I expect more improvement to come here today, back up in trip. He handles any ground, so is a solid option in what are normally messy races to predict.

Yet to really show everyone his true ability. He was a brilliant novice hurdler but just fell short of Grade One level. In novice chases he showed promise before coming undone with two non-completions. He returned this year with two runs. His last run on New Year's Day was better. The key with this lad is the ground. He needs cut, which he will get plenty of today. In fact, the slower the ground the better. That's where I think he can really stand out here. Handicap debut ??" his mark could be stiff, but he's the old graded horse in a handicap shout. Dan the Man on board. So many positives.

I really like this mare. She was a brilliant hurdler, winning a top mares' race at Sandown. Chasing this season, she was beaten on debut but made amends when winning next time out. I fancied her for the novice chase at Warwick on Saturday, but unfortunately that was called off. She's improving, her jumping is getting better and the yard are having a fantastic season to date. This race. On paper looks well within her compass . Italy personal opinion but it's possible that she is the best horse in the yard at Jamie's.

French Ship has been a revelation this season so far, winning easily at Cheltenham and then Newbury. Cobden gave him a peach last time. He smuggled him into the race and won cozily. Now, this is a very competitive handicap and he carries top weight. Callum Pritchard is a very talented claimer and takes 3 lb off, which makes it slightly more reasonable. The thing with French Ship is that he may well be a great horse in a handicap. If he is, he should win this; regardless, it’s very hard to see him not placing.

She is going under the radar here slightly. She won the lucrative Mares' Hurdle at Sandown last season. Chasing this year, she was 3rd in the Colin Parker, which is strong form even though she wasn't at her best. Won last time at Exeter in calmer waters. Back up in trip to 3 miles here. I think she will handle the trip and track perfectly. Same can't be said for some of the opposition. Yard is going well. I think she's potentially the best horse in the yard.
