The Disengager has been knocking on the door over hurdles and he is a likely contender back over larger obstacles here. Stormhoek also looks set to give a good account with blinkers applied for the first time but it might be worth taking a chance on TIMETORING. He finished well beaten on his chasing debut over this C&D last time but does look attractively handicapped now on the pick of his hurdles form and the application of a tongue-tie could help his cause.
