FIRST CANDIDATE, who won over 3m in her point-to-point days, showed her versatility when she made all to get off the mark over hurdles at Haydock last month. The progressive six-year-old picks up a 7lb penalty but looks readily capable of taking another step forward. Silvereen wasn't beaten far over C&D on her most recent start and is respected in representing a yard that does well here. Her stable companion Briery Rose and Enya, who tries a first time tongue-tie, are others to note.
FIRST CANDIDATE can defy a penalty. She made good use of her experience when an easy winner from the front last time and that form is a long way ahead of what anything in this line up has achieved. Silvereen left her debut form behind when placed here last time despite still looking green. She can chase the selection home ahead of Briery Rose who may want further in time but should be staying on at the finish.
Fell in a handicap hurdle at Southwell latest when beaten; effective at around 2 1/2-3m, suited by decent ground, acts on soft; generally consistent.

SHORTEN SASSY is the pick of this bunch and can get off the mark at the 10th time of asking. A respectable third in a mares' handicap at Southwell most recently, the six-year-old gets the vote in what appears to be a winnable contest on paper. Briery Butterfly was looking held when falling two out in that race. However, she was a well-backed favourite and better was obviously expected. This is no tougher and she could bounce back. Edna E Mode and Churchman complete the shortlist.
EDNA E MODE returned to form when placing at a big price last time and could belatedly shed her maiden tag if building on that here. She brings in some good course form and has shaped as if in need of this step back up in trip. Briery Butterfly was taken on up front and went too fast last time but has shown a consistent level of form for some time so looks the biggest danger. Slack Alice bounced back to form here last time and Sean Bowen takes over so she should also be on the premises.
Returned to form beaten 3l off this mark at Wincanton last time; effective 3m on a sound surface; should come on for latest and looks a big player
He has won two chases and a point-to-point from 2m 7f to 3m on good and soft ground. Beaten 2 3/4l by Broomfields Cave when second of 5 at 15-2 on his latest outing in a chase at Wincanton over 3m 1f (good) last month.

Zacony Rebel was the surprise winner of the Boyne Cup over C&D last month. However, the 11-year-old showed plenty of zest on that occasion and a repeat dose can see him on the premises off just 3lb higher. However, the well-handicapped HALL LANE could have a bigger say on these terms. Set to run off 10lb below his last winning mark over fences, this could be a good time to catch the Fergal O'Brien-trained gelding. Nazare and Sunset Boulevard are the pick of the rest.
LAW OF SUPPLY hasn't won in a while but he's now 1lb below his last winning mark and finished runner up to a progressive rival last time. A sharp 3m on good ground suits ideally and he is picked to defeat Nazare who has lost his form over hurdles following a pair of victories in the winter. However the handicapper has relented and the switch to fences could spark a revival. Redbridge Rambler is back below his last winning mark and had been running back into form until a poor run last time. He may fare best of the remainder.

All three of Zucayan's career victories have come over C&D and the nine-year-old bounced back to form when filling the runner-up spot over track and trip in December. He is bound to play a leading role, but the one who appeals most is PERGAMON. Jennie Candish's charge sprung a 22/1 surprise when returning to winning ways at Huntingdon last month and could complete a double. Of the remainder, Soleil D'arizona makes the most appeal for the in-form Dan Skelton team.
Dual purpose performer Zucayan is certainly of interest off what looks a good mark based on his Flat form. He was last seen finishing runner up over this C&D but he may just need this after a break. UFOURIA was disappointing last time but the Irish bumper winner's previous form has been franked so she is chosen to continue her yard's decent record here. Lord Cauvelliere is yet to fire over fences but handicaps are likely to suit the point and bumper winner better so he isn't ruled out at a bigger price either.
Outpaced, rallied, ran to form appreciating the better ground beaten a neck off a 2lb lower mark at Stratford last time; effective 2m4f, suited by decent ground; consistent sort who likes this venue.

Northern Air made a pleasing start for her new yard when second over 2m1f at Newton Abbot last month and she needs to be taken seriously, but the vote goes to CLAIM DU BRIZAIS. Dan Skelton's mare failed to justify favouritism when only fourth at Warwick on her most recent start. However, she was dropped 1lb for that effort and might be worth another chance. Regal Renaissance looks best of the rest.
This looks a match race between Claim Du Brizais and REGAL RENAISSANCE. The former ran better than the finishing figures suggest last time just tiring after a late error and should be capable of better if brushing up on her jumping. However preference is for the top weight who is on a long losing run but has an excellent record at this venue. She arrives on her last winning mark and showed a willing attitude when narrowly denied last time where she appreciated the return to better ground. Dual hurdles winner Northern Symphonie has had a wind op and may do best of the rest on her chase debut.
Scored by 3l off a 4lb lower mark at Huntingdon penultimate start; ran to form fourth beaten 8 1/2l off 102 last time, 2lb lower here; trainer in form; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on any; back in form, mark demands a bit more.

MIDNIGHT VIEW had Snapius behind in fourth when getting off the mark by just over two lengths at Warwick and even a 6lb rise might underestimate the level of authority he showed that day. Provided Matt Sheppard's gelding can back that performance up, he will prove hard to beat. Jafimgoso showed little when only seventh at Huntingdon, but his mark continues to drop and the bumper winner has Harry Skelton back on board.
Midnight View gained a first victory in decisive fashion last time and remains well treated on his novice form off 6lb higher. He had Snapius who was a winner previously in behind that day and the pair are greatly respected given their fine recent form. However it may be worth taking a chance with JAFIMGOSO who was well held on his reappearance but the market suggested that he would need the run. He has had plenty of issues and is yet to show much over hurdles but he is potentially thrown in on his old bumper form. It is notable that his top yard persists and it would be no surprise to see significant improvement now he has been upped in trip.
