TARA ITI has held his form well during a busy spell under both codes over the last month or so and reverts to hurdles with a major chance of extending the sequence. Having been hit with just a 3lb rise after winning at Fakenham on his latest hurdles run, the James Owen-trained gelding does need to post another personal best. This may create some hope for the likes of the in-form Winds Of Winter and Blended Stealth, who are fellow last-time-out winners with solid credentials.

SCOTS POET was a close second over C&D last month and must hold every chance of going one better from just a 2lb higher rating. Conquer The Breeze and Follow Your Arrow come into this with similar profiles and command respect on these terms. However, Nathan Wells posted a good effort on his only previous try at this venue and he could be a bigger danger to the selection.

With three consecutive course-and-distance wins under his belt, KICKSAFTERSIX is hard to ignore at his seemingly favourite venue and is fancied to readily handle the 4lb rise imposed for his latest success. College Causeway's Irish form reads well and there could be plenty more to come from him on just his second run with cheekpieces added. Take A Hike and Ballydangan are others to keep an eye on in the betting market.

Pergamon made it two from two over timber when on target at Kelso last month but although respected in this hat-trick bid, it is SHARP GLANCE that shades preference. Alan King's mare was able to record a narrow success at Newton Abbot latest, having travelled by far the best. Officially rated 4lb lower than the first-named whilst receiving 6lb, she looks to have an excellent chance. Teofimo has few miles on the clock and is worth a market check on his first start for the Adam Nicol team.

MISS MAVERICK made every yard of the running to score by six lengths at Uttoxeter last month and she looks ready for this step up in grade. Gary Hanmer's mare struck over C&D two starts ago and looks the one to beat again. Sea The Clouds showed a lot more when filling the runner-up spot at Cartmel last time and he has to be respected, despite being 3lb higher. Of the remainder, Well Educated makes the most appeal.

MATCHLESS accounted for his nearest rival by over a length in this grade at Southwell last time and he now has his first attempt at this distance. The seven-year-old has shaped as if he will stay and, if doing so, he could prove tough to beat. Belvedere Blast finished second at Cartmel on his most recent start and should remain competitive off a 1lb higher mark. My Friend Yeats steps back into handicaps after his maiden victory and is another to note.

MORNINGTON BEACH struck by seven lengths between the flags in April and is a half-sister to hurdle/chase winner Corrigeen Rock. George Bewley's mare looks to have found a nice opportunity on her first start under Rules. Point-to-point winner Matching Energy needs to be monitored in the market on his first bumper outing. Fleet Street Flyer could improve on his fourth at Sedgefield and he completes the shortlist.
