ARCTIC VOYAGE got off the mark over timber in impressive fashion over 2m at Hereford a month ago and the four-year-old clearly sets the standard based on that evidence. Arbitration was useful on the Flat and has to be noted following his 67,000gns purchase last October. The rest all have questions to answer, but Louis Des Landes is the pick of them.
A weak novice hurdle in which likely favourite Arctic Voyage is surely worth taking on under a penalty. The 4yo seemed to benefit from having all headgear removed when finally off the mark last time but he could be vulnerable now under the extra weight. Let's take a chance on hurdles newcomer ARBITRATION. He was a fair sort on the Flat, has joined a good jumping yard and should have conditions in his favour. The mare Medina Blue brings some potential from the pointing field also.
Poor run back hurdling down the field in a handicap at Leicester most recent; in good form prior; effective 2m, acts on good; bit more needed in both codes to defy current mark.

EVENING TESS took a step forward when filling second place in a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter earlier in the month and that efforts suggests that an opening mark of 96 should be workable on her handicap bow. Reel Orange only found one too good last time and that followed a victory at this venue last month. On that evidence, she could be the main danger ahead of Blackwater Lilly and Isabella Islay.
REEL ORANGE has found some form, winning two starts back before bumping into a well handicapped rival last time. She ought to go well once again with her mark still looking fair and her having shown a real liking for this venue. Blackwater Lilly continues in good form and is now starting out for a new yard. She ought to go well under top weight with handicap newcomers Isabella Islay and Evening Tess, both 4yo's, respected also.
Did it cosily, improved up in trip and down in class landing a handicap by 22l off a 7lb lower mark at Plumpton last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on soft and good; progressing over fences, could remain ahead of mark.

| T | Jamie Snowden | 7 | 3 | 0 | 42.9% |
All of these have claims, but MOVE WITH THE BEAT gets the vote. A winner at Wincanton and Warwick last month, Jamie Snowden's gelding could make it a hat-trick just 4lb higher than last time. Siam Park is more than capable of going well, but his jumping has let him down the last twice over fences, while Inca De Lafayette edges out Anyharminasking to be best of the rest.
Inca De Lafayette hacked up at Plumpton last time and a 7lb rise is probably fair enough while he has a good rider claiming a handy 5lb. The progressive MOVE WITH THE BEAT is taken to get the better of him, though, the 7yo being on a hat-trick and still looking well treated after his latest 4lb rise. Siam Park is third choice although he is coming off a fall. He might be suited by the step back up in trip.

COBBLER'S BOY thumped his two rivals to break his chasing duck here last Wednesday. Dan Skelton's charge reverts to hurdles from the same mark and looks to have been found an ideal opportunity to score again. One Island was 25 lengths in arrears of the winner when second at Chepstow but he now goes handicapping in first-time cheekpieces and must be respected, whilst Blacksamssenorita might fare best of the remainder.
The 4yo One Island is a possible improver now handicapping and the first-time cheekpieces might make a difference. He's likely up against it trying to keep a lid on COBBLER'S BOY, however. The selection hacked up over fences at the course last week and gets to run off the same mark here - the rating of 116 he was given for that is 11lb above his official one. Blacksamssenorita ran well in first-time blinkers when back hurdling last time and she comes in as third choice.
Outclassed from stiff mark when down the field in Topham Handicap Chase at Aintree most recent; in good form prior; effective 2m4f-3m, needs decent ground, likes Kempton; could go well here.

VIROFLAY struggled in the Topham last month but he'd been holding his form well prior to that. Olive Nicholls gets a good tune out of the lightly-raced nine-year-old and he is expected to bounce back in these calmer waters, as is Hoe Joly Smoke, who should do better on his second run following a wind operation. Lord Baddesley might be able to dominate from the front and would be a threat to all if doing so.
Hoe Joly Smoke ought to be seen to much better effect this time back on better ground on his second run since a wind op, but VIROFLAY can make these go despite top weight and earn himself a first since of the new season. He found the Topham too much last time but can boss this field while his rider gets on well with him. Certainly Red made a pleasing return from a lengthy absence and is entitled to come on for that, making him third choice.

It is very hard to oppose GOLDEN SON, who failed to make an impact in the Aintree Foxhunters' Chase last time but that followed a fourth in the Hunters' Chase at the Cheltenham Festival. A repeat of the latter performance would see Paul Nicholls' gelding home in front here. Regatta De Blanc has to be respected following a couple of wins between the flags, while High Game Royal is next best.
Golden Son sets the standard having finished an excellent fourth in the big hunter chase at Cheltenham in March, but he's since flopped at Aintree and has to concede 20lb to former stablemate REGATTA DE BLANC taking rider's claims into account. The selection has won her last two in points, including over 4m last time, and comes into the race with a better prep than the top one. High Game Royal is third best in the new headgear combo.
Modest debut well beaten in a bumper at Hereford only start; improvement likely but needed.
Well beaten at 40-1 behind Crystal Jet when seventh of 11 on her racecourse debut at Hereford over 2m (good) last month.

Mirabello and Lundy View are the pick of those with race experience but they do not set a very high standard. With that in mind, a chance can be taken with FLORA HOBBS, who won a British point-to-point last month and could make a winning debut under Rules. Any market support for either of Newbridge or Unflappable would have to be noted.
A weak bumper than can go to point bumper winner FLORA HOBBS, who is getting weight from plenty of these being a 4yo. Mirabello improved from start one to two when fourth at Plumpton last time and ought to go well once more, while Lundy View should improve on her modest course debut.
