It could pay to side with Irish challenger, RUDIGREEN, here. This 2m4f hurdler scorer was up in the van at Limerick last month before fitness possibly kicked in and he faded into fourth and that first outing in almost a year will have blown any cobwebs away. Thehillofuisneach has shown flashes of promise in three novice events and warrants respect on his handicap debut, while Frameit is worthy of consideration after a much improved effort at Folkestone recently.
Quite a few unexposed ones here and the betting should guide. Baan and High Kite look interesting but Thehillofuisneach appeals as very much the type to do better now handicapping and is given the nod for in-form Jonjo O'Neill.
She has won three hurdle races at 2m on good and good to soft ground. Won on her latest outing in a hurdle race when 10-11fav at Wetherby over 2m (good) in October, beating Whoops A Daisy by 2 1/2l.

It's difficult to look past ALASI on her chasing bow. She was some way clear of these on official ratings over timber and looked better than ever when landing a Listed contest in that sphere at Wetherby last time. Another tackling fences for the first time, Be My Light, rates the biggest threat having been in cracking form over hurdles recently, while Kings Queen wasn't completely disgraced on her chasing debut last month and may have improved for that first start since March.
Alasi is a smart hurdler, and although Be My Light will give her something to think about, she looks to have been found a good opportunity to make a successful chasing debut.
Successful in two hurdle races at 2m and 2m 1f on good and good to soft ground. A winner at 5-1 in a hurdle race at Wincanton over 2m (good to soft) on his latest outing earlier this month, beating Tony Star by 1 1/2l. Carries a 7lb penalty today for that success. Has also won at Bangor this season.

Pinerolo makes plenty of appeal on his handicap debut for a Sue Smith stable who have been in cracking form recently, but DINEUR edges the vote. This consistent gelding was fairly impressive when making all to win over 2m at Wincanton last week and a 7lb penalty may not be enough to stop him if in the same mood. Keep Talking also shoulders a penalty for Sunday's Warwick success and must come into the reckoning.
Dineur was value for extra when making a successful handicap debut last week having help set a pretty strong pace, and looks the one to be with under a penalty. Fellow last-time-out winner Keep Talking and Kayaan are the obvious threats.
Winner of a hurdle race and six chases from 2m 2f to 2m 5f on ground varying from good to soft. Well beaten behind La Segnora when eighth of 9 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Auteuil over 2m 5f last month.

SOMERSBY could prove difficult to beat representing the stable that has won five of the last nine runnings of this Grade 2 contest. After easily brushing aside Aiteen Thirtythree at Kempton in October, he stepped up significantly on that when runner-up behind an impressive Master Minded in the Amlin Chase at Ascot 19 days ago and seems sure mount a bold bid here before heading to Kempton for the King George Chase on Boxing Day. The Nightingale is most feared after his promising reappearance in Grade 1 company at Down Royal last month, while it's difficult to overlook the progressive Mr Moonshine.
Somersby is the one to beat on recent form but he is yet to win a Graded chase out of novice company, and although this is easier than many of his assignments, his supporters have had their fingers burnt in the past. With The Nightingale perhaps best in the mud, this could be a chance for Gauvain to gain quick consolation after a tumble in the Tingle Creek on Saturday.
Yet to place in five starts. Finished 12l behind Cucumber Run when fourth of 16 at 66-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race here over 2m (good to soft) in January.

GLEBEHALL BAY wasn't without support when winning impressively on his seasonal reappearance over an extended 3m1f at Hereford eight days ago and, despite being burdened with a 7lb penalty, he will be fancied to complete a quickfire double. Inga Bird returned to form over hurdles at Carlisle last month and could figure prominently on this first start over fences, while Eliades Run looks a lively outsider off bottom-weight.
Glebehall Bay won with authority at Hereford last week and looks good to defy his penalty. Eliades Run and chasing-newcomer Inga Bird are put forward as each-way alternatives to the selection.
Successful in two hurdle races at 2m 1f and 2m 4f on good to firm and good ground (latest flat win was in February). Pulled up at the last when 10-1 in the Group 2 totetentofollow Persian War Novices' Hurdle at Chepstow over 2m 4f (good) in a Grade 2 hurdle race won by Fingal Bay in October on his latest outing.

ITALIAN MASTER gets the nod in what looks an above average novices' hurdle. He was bought for 240,000 after winning his only point-to-point start to Dromahane in March and connections will be hopeful of a big run on this NH debut. Tuscan Gold won twice on the level for Sir Mark Prescott and has reportedly schooled well prior to today's hurdling debut, while Dawn Commander, Bowdler's Magic and Hit The Headlines are other exciting prospects.
Faultless Feelings may prove best of those with hurdling experience in view of Florafern's unfortunate fall on debut recently, but neither face an easy task with a plethora of interesting new recruits to overcome. Italian Master, Hit The Headlines and Tuscan Gold make the most appeal on that front and are preferred in that order.
Half-brother to Caid Ali, won at 1m 2f. A winner at 9-1 in a NH flat race at Downpatrick over 2m 2f (good to firm) on his latest outing in August, beating Warwickshire by 2l. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with John Joseph Hanlon in Ireland.

GO SET GO has displayed a fair level of ability in three bumper starts thus far, only a length behind exciting prospect Cinders And Ashes on debut at Fontwell, and he appears to have been found a decent opportunity to open his account today. Amalric made a pleasing introduction at Bangor last month and could go close here if building on that, while Well Mett was bought out of John Joseph Hanlon's yard after winning first time up at Downpatrick in August and has definite claims.
None of the newcomers makes any stand-out appeal, so it may pay to stick to those with experience in bumpers, Amalric and Go Set Go getting the nod over the penalised Well Mett.
