MUSNAD reverts to the jumps scene on the back of a creditable performance in the Silver Cambridgeshire at Newmarket last month and Brian Ellison's charge makes most appeal. He was last seen in this sphere finishing third off the same mark in a better race at Stratford in March and, with underfoot conditions set to suit the son of Mr Greeley, he has plenty going for him. Of the others, Miss Exhibitionist has threatened for Alan King this summer and her mark of 102 remains feasible, while Vimiero completes the shortlist.

The in-form Gougane is very much respected at the summit of the weights in the first-time cheekpieces and could be one for the each-way players with Kielan Woods taking off 5lb in the plate. Tregaro is another to take seriously, up 8lb for his Sedgefield success and bidding to complete a hat-trick, but BROUSSE EN FEUX edges the vote. Nigel Twiston-Davies' representative scored at Fontwell when returning from a 211-day absence earlier this month and, upped in trip for this assignment, a 3lb rise might not be enough to stop him going in again.

Mungo Park won a Hamilton maiden for Mark Johnston on the Flat and, while he hasn't been seen for almost a year, he must come into the reckoning making his hurdling debut for John Ferguson. WEEKEND MILLIONAIR and Dance Tempo are forced to carry penalties for their respective wins at Ffos Las and Worcester, but the former is preferred on this better ground and David Pipe's charge should score if up to his official rating of 133.

TOUR D'ARGENT is taken to make a winning debut over fences. With efforts such as his second in a Listed hurdle at last season's Aintree Festival, he earned a rating of 140 in that sphere (the highest in this line-up) and Nicky Henderson will have left no stone unturned in the schooling department prior to this chasing debut. Hildisvini was next best, on official figures, over timber and arrives here having won a competitive handicap on his latest start at Sandown in March. He commands respect first over the larger obstacles, as does Tom George's Forgotten Gold.

It could pay to side with VICTOR ECHO in what looks a fairly open handicap. He produced his best effort yet when a nose second over 3m at Uttoxeter latest (pulled 12-lengths clear of the third) and ought to go very close again today if reproducing that level of performance. Well Mett has been knocking on the door and looks sure to be in the shake-up once again, while Pairc Na Gcapall remains nicely treated on his best chase form and could get involved providing a fall over the larger obstacles at Plumpton 23 days ago hasn't dented his confidence.

Pure Style confirmed the promise shown between the flags when scoring comfortably on his debut in this sphere at Stratford last month. He warrants plenty of respect in his bid to follow up, but TICK TOCKER edges the vote in receipt of weight. The offspring of Beat Hollow was snapped up for 65,000 pounds by these powerful connections shortly after landing a point-to-point event at Dromahane in May and he is sure to know his job first time under Rules. Uttoxeter third Wet Wet rates an each-way player.
