A winner of a hurdle race at 2m 1f on good to firm ground, but that win was over two years ago. Third of 15 behind Tinseltown beaten 14l at 20-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Wetherby over 2m (good to soft) in May.

CHANGING THE GUARD won with any amount in hand at Uttoxeter last week and a 7lb penalty shouldn't be enough to stop him following up if reproducing that level of performance. Red Riverman looks an obvious danger on the back of his workmanlike victory over C&D, while Stravita, the mount of McCoy, and handicap debutant Bingo Des Mottes, are others to consider in what looks a fairly competitive opener.
The likes of Red Riverman and Bingo des Mottes would be of major interest in most races at this level but they come up against a potential blot on the handicap in Changing The Guard who bolted up when dropped to 2m for the first time over hurdles a week ago and will take some stopping under a penalty.
Placed in a hurdle race and a NH flat race from ten starts. Fell 3 out when 4-1 at Kelso over 2m 2f (good) in a hurdle race won by Stags Leap in May on his latest outing.

This could go to the in-form TALK OF SAAFEND. She backed up her cosy course success over 2m3f with a game win on the Flat at Musselburgh last time and looks capable of doing some more damage despite a 10lb hike in the ratings. The Lemonpie arguably produced his best effort since sent hurdling when runner-up at Hereford two weeks ago and ought to go close if in the same mood here, while Allformary and Pas Trop Tard make up the shortlist.
Talk of Saafend has been in excellent form under both codes of late and is taken to notch another win here. The Lemonpie and Lawgiver are a couple with more solid profiles than most, while market support for Iktiview on handicap debut would also bring him into the reckoning.
Placed in a hurdle race and a NH flat race from four starts. Well beaten at 18-1 behind Lucky Vic when seventh of 11 on his latest outing in a maiden hurdle race at Uttoxeter over 2m 4f (good to soft) last month.

LUCKY LANDING should prove difficult to beat with the champion jockey on his back for the first time. Tony Coyle's representative boosts winner form over fences at this venue and was probably sent for home too soon when idling and finishing runner-up in this sphere latest. He can go one better today if ridden with more restraint, while Trop Fort and hurdling debutant Indian Voyage look to be his biggest dangers.
Trop Fort is the pick on hurdling form but didn't always find a massive amount when the chips were down for his previous yard and Lucky Landing is perhaps a more solid option with McCoy up.
Successful in two hurdle races at 2m 1f and 2m 4f on good to firm and good ground. Well beaten at 12-1 behind Top Smart when 11th of 15 on his latest NH outing in a hurdle race at Sandown over 2m 4f (good) in February. Having his first run for a new stable today.

It could pay to side with GEORGE WOOLF. The form of his runner-up effort over 2m4f at Hereford looks rock solid with the first and fourth both winning since and the way he finished off that race suggests that this extra furlong can only help. Dirty Bertie showed a likeable attitude when landing the spoils at Fontwell last time but an 8lb rise looks harsh, so course winner Dipity Doo Dah is most feared from lower down the weights.
With her yard in fine form, Dipity Doo Dah is taken to get her head in front after a trio of placed efforts recently. King Mak shouldn't be far away, while Dirty Bertie ought to go well despite a harsh-looking hike in the weights.
Placed in a hurdle race from six NH starts. Third of 10 behind Present Your Case beaten 9l at 5-1 on his latest outing in a selling hurdle race at Perth over 2m 4f (good to firm) in July last year.

COOL STAR is taken to make a winning debut over fences. He posted a couple of decent efforts when competing over hurdles around this time last year and has since notched up four victories between the flags. Lion On The Prowl faces his easiest assignment since sent chasing and ought to be there or thereabouts, while course winner Fennis Boy certainly isn't out of it either on his return from a break.
None of these are bombproof, but it's worth taking a chance on multiple point winner Cool Star getting off the mark under Rules. Despite the concerns over their attitude, Lion on the Prowl, Fennis Boy and Schism are the other realistic alternatives.
He has won two hurdle races and a chase from 2m 4f to 3m on good to firm and good ground. Well beaten at 50-1 behind Penny Max when eighth of 10 on his latest outing in a chase at Newbury over 3m (soft) in December last year.

KIRKHAMMERTON likes it around here (won once and placed three times from six visits) and looks to have a big chance off bottom-weight. He enjoys a nice swing in the weights with Delgany Gunner for a half-length defeat at Uttoxeter and remains ridiculously well treated on his best form. Neil King's inmate still warrants respect but the biggest challenge may come from Silent Snow, who won nicely over C&D last time.
Silent Snow is relatively unexposed and patently had more in hand than the bare facts of the result when winning here last time, so is selected to supplement that success. Airmen's Friend looked a different horse on his chasing debut and is feared, whilst Taffy Thomas is another with more mileage in him over fences.
Placed in two hurdle races from ten starts. Finished 12l behind Rich Buddy when fourth of 11 at 4-1 on his latest outing in a maiden hurdle race at Worcester over 2m 7f (good) last month.

The form of MILLERS REEF's gritty Hereford success has been franked with the third and fourth winning since and, although a 7lb rise in the ratings is sure to make life tougher, he gets the vote to follow up. Blue Hills is sure to have plenty of supporters having won four of his last five starts, while Endeavor and first-time blinkered Clever Dick are others worthy of consideration.
Millers Reef certainly had more in hand than the margin of success suggests when winning at Hereford last time and looks sure to go well again. Molko Jack is narrowly preferred, however, as he was in the process of running well at the same track last month and looks as if he's just about to click. The bang-in-form Blue Hills is another who warrants respect once again.

MULLIGAN'S MAN is fancied to make a winning debut under Rules. He was snapped up for 20,000 pounds by Donald McCain shortly after his comfortable success between the flags at Stradbally in May and is sure to be ready for this. Be Devious and Langley House have both displayed a fair amount of ability, but Sedgefield third Party Girls is expected to ask most questions in receipt of all the allowances.
Berea Court and Be Devious make most appeal of those with experience but Donald McCain has won plenty of these races with imports from the Irish pointing field and Mulligan's Man is taken to add to the tally here.
