MISTY BLOOM has gone well in her last two bumpers and has shown enough to suggest that she will make a decent hurdler at this sort of level for Emma Lavelle. This decent ground is expected to suit the daughter of Yeats and she can account for No No Juliet, who looked to need the experience at Taunton last time but should improve, and Passing Dream, who has just her second start for Seamus Mullins.

COPPERFACEJACK made a bold bid to make every yard when just beaten in the final strides at Warwick last time out and is fancied to have come on for that outing. That was his first run since November and the booking of Richard Johnson is certainly a positive one. Bassarabad isn't the most consistent but is a capable type at this level on his day, while Mahler Lad arrives here in good form and should appreciate this slight drop in trip.

Major Davis appreciates this decent ground but does have a 311-day absence to overcome for Warren Greatrex, while Stonecoldsoba only won a modest race at Huntingdon last month and has been raised 9lb for that success. Nikki Steel remains unexposed, but SALIX is a more intriguing contender. Fourth in a hot Kempton race last time, an opening handicap mark of 105 looks fair and he can take advantage under Daryl Jacob.

Point winner COOLE CODY needs to leave behind his comeback effort over timber at Aintree, when pulling-up, but makes strong appeal on his best hurdles form last year. He completed a hat-trick when scoring in a Cheltenham handicap in November and could go well on these terms if taking to the larger obstacles. Ordo Ab Chao debuts over fences too and looks the main danger ahead of Our Three Sons and Hartside on these terms.

DRUID'S FOLLY was runner-up on his most recent start at Warwick last Monday and this looks an ideal place for the son of Beneficial to get back to winning ways. Barney From Tyanee won at Wincanton back in March and can prove competitive off a 4lb higher mark, while Kastani Beach ran his best race for a while at the same track last month and has to be respected off 5lb lower.

PORT MELON is the class act in the field and made a successful start in the hunter chase sphere at Kempton last month and the step back up in trip is definitely in his favour. Royalraise looks the main threat on recent form having placed on his most recent outing at Southwell and should be in the mix along with Letbeso.

JEN'S BOY should have learnt plenty from his debut effort at Newbury in a much stronger bumper than this when behind Caribert and this relation to Regal Regatta and Three Musketeers can get off the mark at the second attempt. Granitic comes from the family of Maljimar and looks capable of a decent showing on his racecourse debut, while Eurkash looks best of the remainder.
