Those with hurdle experience don't set the bar high so this may be dominated by Flat recruits, with CELESTIAL FORCE getting the nod to make a winning start for Paul Nicholls ahead of the Emma Lavelle-trained Smarter. Bumper-winner Chazza is likely better than he showed when a well held second on his hurdle debut and may prove best of the remainder.
