APPLAUS made a winning seasonal debut over C&D at the beginning of the month and a 5lb rise in the ratings for that success may not be enough to stop him from taking this contest as well. Sarasota Star is another recent track-and-trip winner who merits the utmost respect this afternoon, while Coole Well and Meteorite complete the shortlist.
BOBNDAVE figures on a good mark so looks the one to focus on given he should be spot on now after an eye-catching fifth on his return at Hexham. Tom Symonds has his string in excellent nick so his Plumpton second Meteorite rates the chief threat with C&D scorer Amberose much respected too now she gets back on soft ground.
Third hurdle success when seeing off 4 rivals in 19f Haydock handicap when last seen 11 months ago. Shaped quite well in 2 runs over fences prior to that and should be more to come in this sphere.
He has won three hurdle races from 2m to 2m 3f on ground varying from good to heavy. A winner at 3-1 in a hurdle race at Haydock over 2m 3f (heavy) on his latest outing in December last year, beating Chti Balko by 3/4l.

Heartbreak Kid defied a penalty to win a novice hurdle impressively at Sedgefield recently and that performance suggests that this former winning pointer could be hard to beat today. That said, preference is for HIGHWAY ONE O TWO, who won a Grade 2 over hurdles last season and he is surely capable of better than what he showed at Ffos Las last time. All of the rest have claims but Cheddleton is arguably the pick of them.
There were excuses for HIGHWAY ONE O TWO at Ffos Las and he's well worth another chance given the level of his hurdle form. Cheddleton, Captain Moirette and Heartbreak Kid are all useful chasers in the making and should ensure he doesn't have things all his own way.

GASTON PHEBUS won well on his Rules debut over 2m4f here last month and that form was boosted when the second scored next time out. With that in mind, the son of Coastal Path is hard to oppose this afternoon, despite having to carry a 6lb penalty. Legends Ryde brings solid form to the table and could prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Honor Grey and Wetlands.
GASTON PHEBUS beat a next-time-out winner when making a successful start under Rules here last month and may be capable of defying a penalty with improvement on the cards. Wetlands can step up on his hurdle debut third and provide the chief threat ahead of Jamie Snowden's Legends Ryde.
Fairly useful hurdler who has made great start over fences, much improved on return when landing 3m listed event at Market Rasen. This is tougher still but she's much respected.
Winner of two hurdle races, a NH flat race and two chases from 2m 1f to 3m on ground varying from good to firm to soft. A winner at 11-1 in a chase at Market Rasen over 3m (good) on her latest outing earlier this month, beating Casablanca Mix by 1l.

CHILLI FILLI impressed when scoring on her reappearance in Listed company at Market Rasen earlier this month and should have taken a step forward from that. Henry Daly's charge handles varying ground conditions and, despite the drop in trip, is fancied to be suited by the stamina test that this track presents. Happy Diva was in the process of running another solid race in the Paddy Power Gold Cup when falling a Cheltenham a couple of weeks ago, while My Old Gold is better than what she showed in Lincolnshire last time when pulled up in the same race as the selection.
HAPPY DIVA is a really likeable mare and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to get back on track having departed 2 out in Cheltenham's Paddy Power Gold Cup earlier in the month when set to be placed. Chilli Filli returned an improved model when scoring at Market Rasen so appeals as the one to chase home Kerry Lee's smart mare, with Early Morning Rain the pick of the remainder.

MOUNT MEWS just bumped into one on his reappearance here four weeks ago and should have stripped fitter for that comeback effort. Donald McCain's charge also had wind surgery over the summer, and could be suited by this step up in distance off an unchanged mark. Planet Nine also shaped with promise on his first start of the season, finishing third at Ayr a month ago on testing ground, and could put up the most resistance. Rock On Fruity has won two of his last three starts but isn't getting any younger at the age of 11.
PLANET NINE looked better than ever on his Ayr reappearance, so providing this doesn't come too soon given his lightly-raced profile in recent seasons, his claims appear to be strong. Recent Kelso-scorer Rock On Fruity is feared most ahead of Mount Mews.
Well-established handicap chaser who looked as good as ever when making a winning return here in October. Good third at Kelso subsequently but mark looks about right.
Winner of three hurdle races, three chases and a point-to-point from 2m 3f to 3m on ground varying from good to heavy. Third of 11 behind Almazhar Garde beaten 4 1/2l at 11-1 on his latest outing in a chase at Kelso over 2m 6f (good to soft) earlier this month.
