Race preview
FOR PLEASURE has enjoyed a fine year and completed a hat-trick when landing a novice hurdle under a penalty at Stratford last month. Alex Hales' thriving five-year-old rates the one to beat on these terms and can add this Listed contest to his bow. C&D winner Fidelio Vallis is on an upward curve and is expected to be match-fit for Paul Nicholls for this reappearance assignment. Recent Uttoxeter second Sangha River looks best of the rest.
