DAY TO REMEMBER was very impressive on his hurdling debut at Market Rasen and, with further improvement likely, should be good enough to defy his penalty here. The Ring is also respected, despite suggesting a step up in trip would suit when failing to overhaul Pee Jay's Dream at Newcastle last time. Easy Kelso winner Bywell Beau and Sedgefield third Naiad du Misselot should be best of the rest.

King Killone is developing into a decent staying chaser and easily beat Silver Knight over this C&D prior to finishing third in a hot race at Newcastle. But the one to beat today may be OSSMOSES, who was highly progressive on soft ground in the spring and will be all the better for a spin over hurdles recently. Ross Com stopped quickly last time and Sleeping Night and Sir Rembrandt also have questions to answer at present.

ASTON LAD finished behind Through The Rye over 2m4f here on his reappearance but will be much better suited by this longer trip and shouldn't be far away. Colourful Life has dropped to an attractive mark but clearly isn't the force of old, and more interesting is stablemate Totally Scottish, who was tackling better company at Cheltenham recently. The versatile Great As Gold also has claims.

This looks an open race and a chance is taken on KENTUCKY BLUE, who hasn't raced since the spring but will love the prevailing ground and has run his best races here. Ela Re has proved disappointing over fences since a promising debut at Carlisle but has every chance if putting his best foot forward and looks a better bet than Bestofthebrownies, who was pulled up at Hexham on his latest start and would prefer further.

Jimmy Bond likes it here but disappointed on his latest start at Newcastle and preference is for LE ROCHELAIS. Still a maiden over fences, he's run some sound races, however and can be forgiven his effort over an inadequate trip at Southwell latest. Spring Lover may be a fraction high in the weights at present, but there are possibilities about Sedgefield second Your Advantage despite a higher mark.

From a stable that's running into form, ROARINGWATER may be the answer in this finale. The seven-year-old may have just found 2m6f too far at Folkestone last month. Cash On Friday produced a much-improved performance at Hexham last time, but more interesting are Sedgefield winner Cloudmor and recent C&D winner Ever So Slightly. Speedro looked unlucky at Ayr last time and must also enter calculations.
