KASHMIRI SUNSET finally got off the mark over hurdles at Limerick in July having benefited from a small break. The fact he hasn't run for 47 days suggests that he may need time between his races. Gordon Elliott's charge should prove too strong for recent maiden hurdle winner Round Tower, who is in decent form himself of late over timber. Our Cat has been performing with credit over fences this summer and looks best of the remainder.

SON OF MY HEART probably doesn't quite see out 3m but this looks a very winnable contest with plenty of question marks about his three rivals. The likely main threat should come from Whats Up Woody who has to bounce back from a disappointing effort at Aintree in June but had some solid form with Scotswell at Kelso which gives him every chance here, while Solway Legend ran a better race last time at Market Rasen and has claims if able to replicate that effort.

MIRSAALE showed a decent level of form on the Flat and had no trouble in getting off the mark on his hurdles debut over C&D. The son of Sir Percy could prove too classy under a penalty with his main challenger Miro having taken five attempts to get off the mark over hurdles. The first time hood may help the latter's chances, while Pads ran well in a bumper here in July and should appreciate the first time hood.

Most of these have questions to answer but not Realt Mor, who was successful at Ballinrobe last time out and he finished third in an arguably stronger event over this C&D the time before. That said, the yard also have MOUNTAIN KING in the field and he has the best form, as in December last year the son of Definite Article chased home Mon Successeur in a valuable heat at Ascot from 3lb higher in the ratings. The rest look limited but Tangolan would arguably be the pick of them.

This is a moderate contest and the most solid pick is clearly BLAKE DEAN, who won over C&D back in July and was only narrowly beaten by an in-form rival over fences at Sedgefield last week. Shine A Diamond may need this first run since October but on the pick of his form the eight-year-old is a player in this event. Others to note are Arantes and Thankyou Very Much.

WEST END arrives here seeking a hat-trick following wins here and at Worcester earlier in the year, the last of which came in hunter chase company but he did beat a useful rival on that occasion and that pair pulled well clear of the remainder. Johnny Go was an impressive C&D winner in July and a 4lb rise in the ratings looks very fair. The consistent Baysbrown and Mighty Leader are others who can go very well.
