Quaviste was still in contention when falling here last month. He could bounce back representing a trainer that has won five of the last nine renewals, while Japetus won a maiden hurdle over C&D and also merits consideration, despite his penalty. However, a large chunk of FOUR SPRINGS' penalty is negated by his conditional rider's 5lb allowance, so Ben Pauling's charge is taken to confirm the promise of his emphatic victory at Hereford and go in again.

Fourth over timber at Huntingdon recently, Clap Of Thunder will need to improve off his current mark on his first start over fences, but NORDIC TIGER looks more attractively weighted. Harry Derham's charge finished a respectable second at Ludlow on his chasing bow and, having won off a 2lb higher mark over hurdles, the six-year-old is set to make another bold bid. Benmore is preferred to Kykorock and Maghlaak of the recent winners.

WELCHESTON WARRIER shaped well to finish third at Leicester on his return to action. The runner-up has subsequently boosted that form and the five-year-old looks on a workable mark on only his third start in a handicap. Gms Prince scored over a shorter trip here in September and could have a say in proceedings, while Roxby Belle has more scope than most and offered something to work on when third at Carlisle.

This represents DELGANY DEADLINE's third start in a handicap and he could improve past his rivals. Dan Skelton's charge finished a fair fourth over an extended 2m3f at Chepstow on his return and may have more to offer over this longer trip. Orange Diamond has tasted success in three of his five outings for the Tom Ellis stable and put in another good display when second at Doncaster last time, so he has to be respected. Hawkseye View is the pick of the remainder.

Ali Star Bert won going away to complete a double at Southwell and boasts obvious claims, but QUEENS WISH's triumph at the same venue was arguably more impressive last month. The daughter of Shantou made her way through the field to score readily that day and may have been worth more than the winning margin suggests, so she can defy her 7lb rise. Red Delta completes the shortlist.

Despite Jack Andrews dropping his reins at a vital stage, SECRET VINO still managed to score by over a length at Southwell last month and is now 7lb higher. The step back up in trip could bring out the improvement required to go in again. Nowmelad occupied the runner-up berth at this level at Uttoxeter earlier this month and has to be respected, despite a 2lb higher mark. Smart Decision has only been defeated twice in six starts and is considered on handicap debut.
