Hawkhill justified long odds-on favouritism when winning easily here last time but he shoulders a welter burden and meets CADORE on much worse terms than he would in a handicap. Lucinda Russell's representative has been expensive to follow but if he can reproduce the form of his narrow second to Cool Baranca here last month, he might be able to get off the mark today. His stablemate, Najlaa, showed ability on the Flat in 2010 and she is of interest on her hurdles bow.
Hawkhill posted a third victory at this level over C&D last time but the burden of another penalty makes him vulnerable to Cadore, who went within a head of opening his account at this venue in late July.
Successful in a hurdle race and a NH flat race at 2m on good and good to soft ground. Well beaten at 9-1 behind Banellie when sixth of 12 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Downpatrick over 2m 2f (good to firm) earlier this month.

A winner of a hurdle race at 2m on good ground, but that win was over two years ago. Well beaten at 11-2 behind Silver Coaster when fifth of 13 on his latest outing in a chase at Stratford over 2m 5f (good) earlier this month.

Ploopluck Bridge scored at Limerick last month and he is one to consider on his first run for Chris Grant. Civil Servant has been struggling of late but his trainer does well here and he should not be overlooked. Definite All Star might be better over shorter and Fog Patches would prefer a stiffer test. True Blue is considered but a tentative verdict goes to EYRE APPARENT. He might have gone close here last time had he not made a mistake at a crucial stage and he may be ready to capitalise on his fair handicap mark.
Fog Patches has gone from strength to strength with the cheekpieces applied over fences and can shrug off another 8 lb rise. Ploopluck Bridge is open to improvement now going handicapping for his new yard and is feared most.
He has won a hurdle race and two chases from 2m to 2m 1f on ground varying from good to yielding. Well beaten at 25-1 behind Bob Lingo when 15th of 20 on his latest outing in a chase at Galway over 2m 6f (good) earlier this month. Having his first run for a new stable today.

KIAN'S DELIGHT is progressive and his second to Local Hero at Market Rasen last month gives him obvious claims. Absinthe was just behind him in fourth on that occasion and he is 2lb better off so he should be in the shake-up. First In The Queue has been raised 5lb for his Bangor success but he is still considered along with Cause Of Causes. Ultimate is another with claims and Hunterview should not be left out of calculations.
Cause of Causes looked unlucky in the ultra-competitive Galway Hurdle earlier this month and looks the one to be with here. Kian's Delight and Absinthe both ran with credit in Market Rasen's Summer Hurdle last time and look the main dangers, with the latter just preferred for the forecast.
A winner at 13-2 in a hurdle race at Uttoxeter over 2m (good to soft) on his latest outing last month, beating My Oh Mount Brown by 12l. Has also won at Bennettsbridge this season.

KELLYS BROW ran out an impressive winner over 2m at Uttoxeter last month and with the step up in trip likely to suit, he can play a leading role on his handicap debut today. Raajih comes into this in good heart and he must be respected along with Ryton Runner, who has been knocking on the door of late. Catch The Fire can also make his presence felt and Momkinzain should not be totally overlooked.
Raajih has shown improved form in defeat on his last couple of starts and stands a good chance of resuming winning ways. Last month's Uttoxeter winner Kellys Brow is a likely improver on his handicap bow and rates a threat along with Ryton Runner, second on his most recent 2 outings round here.
He has won a hurdle race and two chases from 2m to 3m on ground varying from good to soft. Well beaten at 16-1 behind Lamboro Lad when sixth of 8 on his latest outing in a chase at Cartmel over 2m 5f (good to soft) last month.

Red Kingdom is at the top of his game at present but a 13lb rise for his C&D success last time might just be enough to halt him in this tougher contest. Bobowen completed a hat-trick when winning at Uttoxeter last month but the handicapper has now had his say and Moulin De La Croix looks handicapped right up to her best. TOUT REGULIER has been raised 6lb for her Bangor success but she remains fairly handicapped on the pick of her hurdles form and she has only had two runs for Tim Vaughan so there could be more to come.
Bobowen has continued his improvement over hurdles since making an emphatic start to his chasing career at Market Rasen last month and is worth sticking with to keep his winning spree going back over fences. The equally thriving Red Kingdom is also respected, alongside the rejuvenated Tout Regulier.
Has won two hurdle races and six chases from 2m to 2m 4f on good and good to soft ground. Finished 8l behind Tara Royal when fourth of 13 at 14-1 on his latest outing in a chase at Musselburgh over 2m (good to soft) in February.

Lord Redsgirth is respected on his first run since joining Lucinda Russell from Gordon Elliott and What A Steel must be respected despite a 5lb rise for his Cartmel victory last month. Quito Du Tresor is rated 9lb lower over hurdles than over fences so he is worth a second look and Wheyaye has each-way claims. GLINGERBANK has not been at his best in two runs this season but he is nicely handicapped on his best form and he won twice here in his younger days.
What A Steel arrives here in the form of his life and will doubtless be popular, but with this drop in trip not an obvious move, Wheyaye is a very viable alternative. Hunters Belt is also of interest fitted with a tongue tie.

ABSOLUTELY BYGONES might not have achieved a great deal when making a winning debut in a three-runner event at Hexham but he was impressive nevertheless and might be able to defy the weight penalty here. One In A Row showed some promise at Tipperary last time and he is highly respected on his first run for Alastair Whillans. Mister Pagan and Cumbrian Farmer are both worth a precautionary market check on debut, whilst point-to-point winner Lord Of Drums is also considered.
A market move for any of the newcomers would look significant but for now One In A Row gets the vote ahead of Absolutely Bygones.
