Lord Brendy's Kelso victory sets the standard amongst those with hurdling experience, although May's Boy could prove best of the bunch, in receipt of weight, having shaped as though the step up in trip would suit when third in handicap company last month. However, DEGOOCH boasts the most attractive profile as a point winner with solid bumper form, and the five-year-old ought to prove tough to beat on his hurdling bow with Donald McCain's string continuing in good form.

Able Deputy and Hallmark Star are feasibly handicapped on the pick of their efforts, but overall records of 0-16 and 0-24 respectively are enough to look elsewhere. The suggestion, therefore, is SWALEDALE LAD, who is entitled to strip fitter for his reappearance second at Bangor and will be well suited by the return to this C&D. Big Water looks the pick of the remainder.

Stanley Bridge bumped into a progressive rival when second at Sedgefield last month, but a subsequent 5lb rise leaves him handicapped to his best. Snowed In looks similarly in the grip of the assessor, so Trend Is My Friend and MOMKINZAIN could be the pair to focus on. The first-named will need to settle better if he's to get home on the back of an absence, so preference is for Lucinda Russell's charge, who was weak in the market when returning from a break at Perth, but is entitled to strip fitter returned to better ground.

HIDDEN HORIZONS confirmed she remains on an upward curve when second to a well treated rival at Perth, and a subsequent 2lb drop leaves her very attractively weighted off a mark of 115 so long as this doesn't come too soon. A 5lb rise for Blenheim Brook's last-gasp Haydock success still leaves him competitively handicapped on the pick of his efforts, but the bigger threat might emerge from Bradley, who has run well since landing the Grand Military at Sandown and will be well suited by this stiff track.

Age might be catching up with KNIGHT VALLIANT, but the 11-year-old threatened to land a race of this nature over the course of last season and his latest effort, when pulled up behind the re-opposing Funky Munky here, was too poor to be true. He is worth one final chance, with the unexposed pairing of Jazz Man and Viking Chief likely to give him most to do, although Solway Dornal warrants respect returned to hurdles.

TALKIN THOMAS has yet to live up to his early promise over fences, but the eight-year-old travelled nicely for a long way at Sedgefield and the combination of a drop in trip and application of first-time cheekpieces can see him regain the winning thread. Allow Me was well backed when second at Kelso over timber and holds claims reverting to this sphere, while Purcell's Bridge can undoubtedly win off a mark of 105 if putting it all together.

Stuart Crawford is gaining an increasing reputation for success in this sphere and his TANIOKEY. a Scorpion filly from the family of Supreme Novices' Hurdle winner Destriero, makes plenty of appeal on paper in receipt of weight from the principals. Noir Girl might struggle to concede a penalty for her Worcester success, so point winner Grace Tara could prove the biggest threat with the champion jockey booked on her Rules bow.
