My Champion looks the pick of the newcomers judged on Flat ability and market support would make him interesting. However, HIGH AURA has the benefit of experience in this discipline and finished just over five lengths behind a subsequent winner when third on her racecourse debut at Stratford. A similar performance from Dan Skelton's filly may be enough to open her account, while Timely Salute may fare best of the remainder.

Having found only a useful Flat performer too strong at Worcester at the start of this month, DIAMOND WHITE could be poised to strike. Jonjo & A J O'Neill have their string in fine fettle and their five-year-old edges the vote over Getmyfriend. The daughter of Getaway is entitled to build on her third-placed hurdling bow over C&D and she isn't taken lightly. The experienced Ask Peter shouldn't be far behind judged on the pick of her form.

It's A Breeze relished a drop back in trip when recently scoring over C&D and Paddy Hanlon negates most of the 7lb penalty with his 5lb claim. Another bold bid is forecast from Paul Nicholls' charge, while reopposing second The Gypsy Davey is expected to be in the thick of the action too. That said, it could be worth taking a punt on WATCHOUTITSCOOKIE, who has posted several creditable efforts in defeat over hurdles this year and has been cut some slack on this switch to chasing.

MAKINBECON has won two of his last three starts and a 5lb rise for the latest of those victories at Market Rasen may not be enough to stop him here. That said, Man Oh Man is an obvious threat following his short-head second over C&D a month ago, while Yanka Blue edges out Saucats to be the pick of the remainder.

Juggernaut failed to justify favouritism when beaten six lengths into third at Fontwell, but he remains on a workable mark and has to be respected. However, JAGER TIME had I Am Spider Man just under three lengths behind in third when hitting the woodwork over track and trip last time and is expected to confirm that form. Off just a 4lb higher figure, he looks the one to beat.

NO MORE NO was returning from over a year off when adding another victory to his record at Southwell last month. A 3lb rise for that success appears to be fair and it would be no surprise to see him score again. A close second over C&D when last seen, Honey I'm Good could prove to be the main threat, ahead of Premier Fantasy and My Girl Katie.
