Far too free and needed the run when well beaten on hurdle debut in a 4yo hurdle at Musselburgh last time. Wears a tongue-tie for the first time and may require more time to develop over hurdles.
Well beaten at 50-1 behind Falls Of Acharn when eighth of 10 on his NH debut in a hurdle race at Musselburgh over 2m (good to soft) last month. He is wearing a tongue-tie for the first time.

Bit free but improved from his debut when fourth, beaten 19l, in a 4yo hurdle at Wetherby last time. Usually held up, effective at 2m and acts on soft; probably one for handicaps after this.
Unplaced in both starts over hurdles. Finished 19l behind Klycot when fourth of 10 at 200-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Wetherby over 2m (soft) last month.

Forced wide from a poor draw and finished down the field in a handicap at Southwell most recently. Trainer is in form but he has plenty to find here and faces a stiff task.

Made too much use of when finishing down the field in a handicap at Kempton last time. Had been in good form prior to that and returns from a short break, but is hard to recommend on recent evidence.

Tired late but ran to form when comfortably held in a 4yo hurdle at Ascot last time. Effective at 2m and acts on soft; his French bumper form received a big boost in the UK and he holds strong claims down in class.

Ran to form when second, beaten 1 1/4l, in a 4yo hurdle at Chepstow last time. Effective at 2m and appears to hold leading claims on that evidence; should find a race soon.

Verdict
SENATOR built on a promising British/hurdling debut to fill the runner-up spot at Chepstow three weeks ago and could be hard to beat if improving again. My Kinda Ghaiy probably took a backward step at Wetherby but it's far too early to be writing him off, as it is with Nicky Henderson's Macshadow Des Crai, who didn't run too badly at Ascot.
Expert View Verdict
A tight contest can go to MACSHADOW DES CRAI who has been gradually improving for his top yard since a move from France. He will find this much easier than his latest assignment when he was beaten by the Fred Winter favourite and he can defeat Senator who has also been in good form over hurdles since joining his yard from France. The form of his Chepstow runner up effort looks strong and he can chase the selection home ahead of My Kinda Ghaiy who is capable of better than he showed last time if brushing up on his jumping.
