Despite hanging badly right in the run-in, BLUENOSE BELLE managed to hold on by just under a length at Fontwell last month and is just 2lb higher. The seven-year-old makes only his second handicap start in this sphere and may have more to offer. Rukaana finished third at Hereford last time and sports first-time blinkers, so is one to watch out for. Remarkable Flight is the pick of the remainder.
Multiple flat winner RUKAANA remains a maiden over hurdles but has shown glimpses which make his current rating looking generous. This includes when finishing well into midfield in a race where the pace collapsed last time suggesting that this slightly longer trip should suit. If the blinkers can sharpen him up early he should be on the premises. Remarkable Flight is yet to build on her sole hurdles win but has had excuses the last twice and arrivess fit from the flat. She will be a danger along with course specialist Gms Prince who was given too much to do last time off a steady pace. He has a poor strike rate but could compete for a place.

ALL WELL AND GOOD put his underwhelming start over hurdles well behind him when finishing second at Ffos Las and is likely to have lots more to offer. With champion jockey Sean Bowen back on board, he will prove very hard to beat. Howth is a fair performer on the Flat and has to be respected on his first outing for the in-form Tom Lacey stable. Chantilly Moon has Brian Hughes booked and may prove best of the rest.
An intriguing maiden where the standard is set by All Well And Good a bumper winner who chased home a useful rival at a respectable distance last time. He should be thereabouts but may be vulnerable to a classier flat performer. Terrorise was successful over 10f last spring and thought well enough of to contest a Grade 1 on hurdles debut. This is much more realistic and he should leave that form behind but it is the former Ballydoyle inmate HOWTH who appeals most. A strong stayer on the flat he was a winner over 14f last year and showed a high quality level of form in that discipline. If taking to hurdling he will be tough to stop.

CLOUDY WEDNESDAY travelled powerfully to make every yard of the running to score at Fakenham last month and a 3lb rise might prove to be on the lenient side for the nine-year-old. Beat The Edge occupied the runner-up berth in a stronger event at Sedgefield and has to be taken seriously, while Kayce Dutton is another to keep an eye on.
CLOUDY WEDNESDAY put up a bold jumping display when repeating his 2024 success at Fakenham last time and is taken to follow up here with an easy lead possible once again. Veteran Topofthecotswolds has been struggling for some time but has dropped in the weights as a result and hinted at a revival the last twice. This step back up in trip will suit and a revival is possible. If doing so he will provide the main threat along with the consistent but frustrating Beat The Edge who is vulnerable for win purposes as usual.

CAN'T BEAT HISTORY continues to go from strength to strength and returning to this track is a major plus, having won here twice last summer. A 9lb rise for his most recent success at Warwick could prove lenient, and he gets the vote ahead of Giovanni Change, who bounced back to form with a determined success over C&D last month. A capable sort on his day, Choosethenews may also have a say in proceedings.
A tight contest which may go to veteran course specialist GIOVANNI CHANGE who is only 2lb higher than when a game C&D winner last time. He showed a willing attitude that day and still has plenty of mileage in his mark based on his flat and hurdles form. With an easy lead likely he will be tough to catch. The hugely progressive Can't Beat History who returned from a lay off with an easy hurdles win may prove the biggest threat back at his favoured venue. Ajp Kingdom wasn't disgraced in a better race last time and is also respected with that returning run under his belt.

BETHPAGE has returned to her best after wing surgery, and her most recent second in a valuable handicap at Cheltenham appeals as the best form on offer. Emma Lavelle's charge is likely to appreciate going back up in trip based on her penultimate success at Wincanton. Billy Boi Blue can give the selection most to think about after a narrow victory at Ayr's Scottish National meeting. A winner at Carlisle last time out off 2lb lower, Willaston is another to consider, as well as the consistent Scrum Diddly.
A seriously open contest where it may be worth siding with the progressive UOKHUN. This is by far her toughest test to date but she was worth much more than the winning margin last time and her 8lb rise is partially offset by her useful claimer. Bethpage is strongly respected as she looked a touch unlucky in a hot Cheltenham handicap over a sharp enough distance last time and was a cosy winner previously. Willaston remains well treated on his old form despite a game victory last time and this step back up in trip should be of benefit. This is his time of year and a follow up isn't ruled out.
Bit in hand landing a handicap by 2 1/4l off 93 over 2m3f here last time; step back up in trip a plus; hugely progressive; can follow up
He has won three hurdle races from 1m 7f to 2m 4f on good and heavy ground. A winner at 6-1 in a hurdle race here over 2m 3f (good) on his latest outing last month, beating Greatness Awaits by 2 1/4l.

A taking winner over shorter here on his first start for new connections last month, ROBBER'S BRIDGE is taken to continue his progression, despite a 6lb rise from the handicapper. Iron Heart hinted at a return to form when third at Ffos Las recently and is expected to be in the mix along with Knacker Trapper, whose form could be revived by the application of first-time cheekpieces.
A good opportunity for ROBBER'S BRIDGE to continue his progress and follow up on his reappearance victory. His 2024 form has worked out well and he was worth more than the winning margin last time over a sharp enough trip. This is his optimum distance and can see him account for Iron Heart who hinted at a revival last time and is 1lb below his last winning mark. With Sean Bowen back in the saddle better is expected again. Of those at bigger prices Whispering Royal could outrun his odds. He was keen and poorly placed to challenge last time but is now looking very well treated on both his flat and hurdles form from last year. He is a possible improver now upped in trip.
