Having come good at the second time of asking between the flags, the JP McManus-owned HARRY LOWES could prove a useful prospect now debuting under Rules. The Walk In The Park gelding has enough speed in his pedigree to cope with an extended 2m and he edges the vote over Kado Sacree. Olly Murphy's charge boasts a similar profile and market support could prove significant. French import Aguellid - also in the McManus colours - is of interest too.
The standard is probably set by debut winner Kapitein Kool. He caused a shock that day but there was no fluke about it as he beat numerous previous winners so he isn't ruled out under a penalty. He could however be vulnerable to a talented newcomer such as HARRY LOWES. The selection was a winner in a point last time and has since joined top connections. He will have more to offer under rules and gets the verdict ahead of Aguellid who shaped well on his only start in France which has been boosted at Listed level.

Having maintained his unbeaten record over hurdles in a Listed event here in February, Fingle Bridge merits plenty of respect on his opening bid over the larger obstacles. He boasts all the attributes to excel in this discipline and isn't taken lightly, but Grade 1 winner LULAMBA will prove a tough nut to crack. Nicky Henderson's Triumph Hurdle runner-up is an exciting prospect for novice chasing and the sky looks the limit. Salver and Tripoli Flyer add further spice to the mix.
A strong race can go to LULAMBA who proved himself top class as a juvenile hurdler last time finishing an unlucky second in the Triumph before making amends at Punchestown. His trainer has always held him in the highest regard and suggested that there would be more to come in this sphere. Salver would probably ideally want slightly further than this on easier ground but he sets the standard on ratings on his best hurdles form so looks the obvious danger. Tripoli Flyer was also a Graded winner over hurdles and was going well when departing on his chase debut. If his jumping holds up he can also make his presence felt.
Went clear with ease for a highly promising debut when winning a maiden hurdle at Stratford over 2m6f by 5 1/2l last time; effective at 2m and acts on good to soft ground; strong bumper form suggests she could defy the penalty.
Successful in a hurdle race and a NH flat race at 2m and 2m 6f on good to soft ground. Won on her latest outing in a maiden hurdle race when evens fav at Stratford over 2m 6f (good to soft) last month, beating Followango by 6l.

There was plenty to like about A PATH TO RONDA's winning hurdles bow at Stratford and she looks more than capable of defying a 7lb penalty. Supreme Malinas finished just behind the selection in a Listed bumper at Sandown in March and is feared most on her first appearance over timber. Merely A Detail has placed in both outings over obstacles and is the pick of the remainder.
A PATH TO RONDA may be able to defy a penalty here. She was untested first time out over hurdles and though this is a better race she should be tough to peg back down in trip if putting her experience to good use. She also has a fitness edge on her main rival Supreme Malinas who was a Listed winner in buimpers last term. That form has had some knocks but she should provide the biggest challenge ahead of Betty's Daisy who was also highly tried in bumpers following a debut victory.
Travelled readily and improved when dropped in grade on chase debut, landing a handicap by 7 1/2l off 123 at Fontwell last time. Effective at 2 1/2m, acts on good ground and remains well treated on hurdle form with more to come over fences.
He has won two hurdle races and a chase from 2m 3f to 2m 5f on good and good to soft ground. A winner at 5-2 in a chase at Fontwell over 2m 3f (good to soft) on his latest outing last month, beating Hecouldbetheone by 8l.

REALLYNTRUTHFULLY bolted up on his chasing bow at Fontwell last month and although 7lb higher now, that experience could be crucial. The son of Jet Away can use it to his advantage and he might need to to repel the challenge of dual novice hurdle winner That's Nice, who makes her fencing/handicap debut. Others to note include Pony Soprano and Barlovento.
An open race where REALLYNTRUTHFULLY may be able to follow up on his debut victory. He beat some more experienced rivals in decisive fashion that day and has only gone up 7lb. Pony Soprano went off too quickly on his chase debut but was far from disgraced by a rival who franked the form at Listed level over the weekend. If ridden slightly more conservatively he can chase the selection home ahead of the highly regarded That's Nice. The mare was 2-3 over hurdles and likely has more to offer in this sphere for top connections.
Well backed and ran to form when second, beaten 4l in a handicap chase over 3m2f at Chepstow last time; has a chance.

The vote goes to point-to-point winner SPECIAL JOHN, who posted a number of creditable efforts over hurdles last term. Now in the care of Sam Thomas, whose team is in excellent form, he can progress for the switch to fences and continue that trend. Mythe Bridge shouldn't be far away if ready to roll on his seasonal return, while Moonlight Artist heads the remainder.
Point winner SPECIAL JOHN proved consistent in his short hurdling career and could now get off the mark under rules switched to the larger obstacles. He recorded a rating higher than his current mark on his penultimate start over hurdles and the form of that race has worked out well. Top weight Mythe Bridge has gone close on both starts over fences so far so looks the obvious danger while Fat Faced Columbo is also of interest at a bigger price. He shaped like a stayer on his last hurdles run and it is notable that the yard switches him to fences so quickly in his career.
Outpaced before rallying and ran to form when fourth, beaten 13l in a handicap hurdle here last time. Effective from 2 1/2m to 3m, handles any ground and looks progressive.
A winner of a hurdle race at 2m 6f on heavy ground. Finished 13l behind Stratton Oakmont when fourth of 14 at 16-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race over this course and distance (good) earlier this month.

HENRYSBROTHERJACK was on a sharp upward curve when last seen, winning three of his last four starts, although he is 8lb higher on his return to action. However, the yard could hardly be in better form and given that he has shown versatility regarding ground, it's possible he could find the required improvement. Diamatiste made a pleasing reappearance over C&D recently so must be considered, along with handicap debutant Jakar Du Moulin.
Point winner JAKAR DU MOULIN was still in front when coming down last time and is chosen to make amends off just 2lb higher on his return. He's completely unexposed at 3m in handicaps and is open to further progress following a wind op. The consistent Diamatiste arrives in form and should find this easier than his latest assignment. He could prove the main danger ahead of Kingston Gent who has shaped like a strong stayer so should relish this extra distance.
