MRS HYDE arrives in terrific form having landed a brace of Listed contests at Kempton and Wetherby, the latter occasion saw her claim the scalp of Verdana Blue, and Brian Ellison's mare is capable of successfully giving weight to all of her rivals. Politesse wasn't disgraced in a Grade 3 at Down Royal on her latest outing and she commands plenty of respect along with Estelle Ma Belle, a winner at Ffos Las on her first run for Paul Nicholls.
MRS HYDE has been a revelation for her new yard over hurdles this season, and with the form of her Wetherby win already working out, she's taken to make it 3 on the spin in listed company. Politesse shaped well in a Grade 3 on her return and remains capable of better, while Galice Macalo has earned a crack at this level after defying a penalty with ease at Stratford.

BF Was beaten favourite last time out |
NEXT DESTINATION made a very pleasing return to action for Paul Nicholls when runner-up in the West Yorkshire Hurdle at Wetherby having not been out since landing a Grade 1 at the Punchestown Festival in April 2018. The eight-year-old was expected to make a strong impact as a chaser before being kept off the track due to niggly issues and, with that recent outing under his belt, he could prove a tough nut to crack. Kalooki was impressive on his chase debut here earlier in the month when accounting for One For The Team, who was held when unseating at the final fence, and the pair are likely to be in the mix along with Hold The Note, who appeared to be in need of his first outing behind Shan Blue at Wetherby.
The talented NEXT DESTINATION made a cracking start for Paul Nicholls when runner-up in a Grade 2 hurdle at Wetherby and, with the promise of more to come switched to chasing, he boasts excellent claims despite being rather thrown in at the deep end. Kalooki is an obvious danger on the back of his ready success at this course earlier in the month.

KAPCORSE won this contest two years ago when getting the better of Brelan D'As by 10 lengths and remains unexposed over the larger obstacles despite returning from a lengthy absence. Highest Sun is open to improvement from his return at Hereford earlier in the month with the handicapper dropping him 2lb, while Court Master, who finished fourth at the course last time, and Almazhar Garde are both likely to enter the reckoning.
A typically competitive renewal which can go to CAP DU NORD, who shaped very well indeed on his Wincanton reappearance 3 weeks ago. That spin will have teed him up nicely for this and he's just 1 lb above his last winning mark. Kapcorse, successful in this race 2 years ago, remains unexposed and is feared greatly, despite the lengthy layoff. Highest Sun and Court Master are also shortlisted.
Fairly useful hurdle/Flat winner who returned after 4 months off with encouraging third in first-time cheekpieces in 20f Bangor handicap hurdle. Should be spot on now so much respected.

Dual 2m hurdle winner in 2018 but he didn't wholly convince over fences last term, despite often running with credit. Reverts to hurdles now so no forlorn hope for top yard.
He has won two hurdle races and a point-to-point from 2m to 3m on good to soft and soft ground. Beaten 11l behind Milan Native at 5-1jt-fav when seventh of 23 on his latest outing in a chase at Cheltenham over 3m 2f (soft) in March.

BF Was beaten favourite last time out |
Useful winning hurdler at his best but only twice raced last term. Back from another 9-month absence now and this is no easy comeback. One of three for Henderson yard and market can guide.
He has won three hurdle races and a NH flat race from 2m to 2m 5f on good and soft ground. Well beaten at 7-1 behind Cervaro Mix when sixth of 10 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Huntingdon over 2m 4f (good to soft) in February.
