Only a few of these have any worthwhile recent form and it may be a good opportunity for STORM PRINCE, who was third in a stronger race than this over course and distance a couple of weeks back. The race probably came too soon when disappointing four days later and he's preferred to Watch Out and Capistrano.

METAPHORIC was much the best of these on the Flat and has made the most promising start over hurdles, too, winning a decent juvenile event at Warwick prior to finishing a creditable fifth in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham. He's still open to improvement in this sphere and can get the better of Charlie Mann's How's Business, who won at Wetherby on his hurdling bow, and Julie Camacho's Hello Nod.

AIR FORCE ONE has quickly emerged as one of the leading staying novice chasers with easy victories at Folkestone and Fontwell early in the season and has run sound enough races behind Alberta's Run in both the Reynoldestown at Ascot (second) and Royal and Sun Alliance at Cheltenham (fifth) since. He's impossible to oppose here with Gardasee likely to take his first preference at Southwell.

WUN CHAI was off the track for well over two years prior to his reappearance but has come back better than ever, winning at Wincanton on each of his last two starts. He's clearly going the right way and is well suited by this trip on a sharp track. Silver Seeker and Role On can give him most to think about.

MOMENT OF MADNESS hasn't won for a while now wasn't beaten far when third at Sedgefield last month. He looks on a fair mark having been dropped since and ran well on his only previous visit to the track. Stagecoach Amber and Cash On Friday both come into it at the top of their game and also have claims.

Mister Friday is the best of these on the pick of his form but was only fourth when returning from a lengthy absence in a point-to-point in February, so preference is for FULLARDS. Pam Sly's inmate has no recent form under Rules but has won her last two outings in points, the most recent of which was just eight days ago, so is at least in good heart currently. Gabor appeals most of the remainder.

None of the newcomers make obvious appeal on paper so it looks a good opportunity for SINDANNA to get off the mark. Alan King has a tremendous record in bumpers and his representative has shown more than enough ability on her two starts so far to suggest she's up to winning an average contest such as this. Mansonn Leda and Jenny Potts are each-way candidates.
