PRECIOUS MAN (1) has undergone a wind-op since finishing a highly respectable runner-up in the G2 JCB Triumph Trial Juvenile Hurdle at Cheltenham on British debut. He showed some useful form when winning over hurdles at Auteuil in France and could have too much quality for his rivals now dropping in standard. POURQUOI PAS PAPA (6) also ran nicely when second on his stable debut at Sandown last month and should go well with that experience under his belt. Flat winner KING AL (5) finished back in fifth that day and may take a step forward. WERTPOL (8) cannot be ruled out having delivered a professional performance to make a winning hurdling debut at Taunton.
