Harry Whittington's THE DUBAI WAY was an impressive performer last season winning three of his four starts over timber, with his only defeat coming when pitched into Grade 3 company at Sandown in March. The six-year-old went well fresh last autumn and can make a bright start to his chasing career. Mcgroarty routed the opposition at Huntingdon last week and is respected despite a 7lb penalty, while Flashing Glance should be suited by the drop to 2m.

MARINERS MOON has gone up 4lb for his neck defeat at Warwick late last month, but that performance over 2m4f can be built on now with Caroline Bailey's seven-year-old trying 3m for the first time. Tim Vaughan saddles two useful geldings in Presenting Berkley and the visored-for-the-first-time Kovera, while course and distance winners Shaiyzar and Corner Creek are others who could get involved at a venue where repeat winners are common.

Emma Lavelle's DISSAVRIL burst onto the scene when taking a Listed bumper at Market Rasen on debut and, despite disappointing when well fancied for the Grade 2 at Aintree's Grand National meeting, she had excuses and is expected to bounce back going hurdling for the first time. She can confirm Market Rasen form with Kimberley Point in this, with Alan King's five-year-old thus far unable to build on her Warwick debut when second, while more is expected of Mabela now hurdling.

Fidux had been in decent form earlier this year and warrants plenty of respect on his return to action, but race-fitness could give SHINING ROMEO the edge. Like the former, Denis Quinn's charge was running well during the spring and there was plenty to like about his comeback third at Plumpton last month. With that effort likely to have taken the edge off, he can play a leading role here. Of the others, the lightly-weighted Solstalla makes most appeal.

ASKING QUESTIONS can land the spoils on his first outing since April. The six-year-old lines up off a 7lb lower mark than when second over fences at Newcastle last time and keeping Harry Skelton in the plate is a big positive, particularly as his brother, Dan, is represented with Welcome Polly. Black Anthem competes off the same mark as when third at Fontwell latest and having Sam Twiston-Davies aboard boosts his chances, while Oscar World might improve for her comeback sixth, and for the switch to handicap company.

The betting is likely to prove a good guide in this race full of newcomers, but MEGAN'S CHOICE gets the vote. The son of Doyen is certainly bred to have plenty of ability, being a half-brother to Flat/hurdle winners Titus Bolt and Little Green, and his stable boast an impressive level stakes profit with their bumper runners over the last five seasons. Adjourned represents powerful connections and is respected, as is Aidan Coleman's mount Especially So.
