N J Henderson
Placed in two hurdle races from two starts. Beaten a neck by Goulanes when second of 12 at 13-8fav on his latest outing in a maiden hurdle race at Newbury over 2m 5f (good to soft) last month.
SEVEN WOODS went down narrowly at Newbury last month and that form took a boost when the third won last week so a reproduction of that effort would make Nicky Henderson's representative the one to beat here. Enter Milan shaped well enough on his hurdling debut at Worcester last summer and he can get involved if at the top of his game on his return to action. Loves A Brazilian and Mr Gee Jay should be monitored in the market for clues as to how they might perform.
