GIOVANNI CHANGE showed signs of ability on stable debut for Mark Walford when third at Southwell earlier this month and could be a force to be reckoned with over hurdles when learning to settle. A bumper winner in Ireland for Emmet Mullins, he has a turn of foot and could put this opposition to the sword. College Oak bumped into one at Ffos Las five weeks ago and should be up there, while Black Pirate returns from a 615-day absence.

TARADA gave a talented winner plenty to think about on his chase debut at Huntingdon 19 days ago and this is an ideal opening for Oliver Sherwood's charge to open his account in this sphere. Unexposed under Rules, the six-year-old has some smart overall form in the book and could prove too hot to handle for Coole Hall, who was third behind eventual Grade 3 winner Sam Spinner here last month. Too Wise Man probably has a bit to find.

GOOBINATOR created a strong impression when scoring in good style on his hurdling debut over C&D and based on that performance, he is capable of giving weight to all of his rivals. Cawthorne Lad ran well on his first attempt over timber at Catterick 10 days ago and can enter calculations along with Lucou, who has been gelded since his latest start, and Gordalan.

CHESTERFIELD remains open to further progression on his sixth outing over fences and has produced two decent efforts so far this season including when placed in a strong Newbury handicap last month. Eamon An Cnoic is capable of winning a prize of this nature and is just 2lb higher than his recent second at Cheltenham, while Hawk High and Tonto's Spirit are others capable of being in the mix.

NO NO JULIET looked to have plenty in hand when winning by a comfortable eight lengths in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell earlier this month and Oliver Sherwood's six-year-old can follow up off a 5lb higher rating with that headgear retained. The hat-trick seeking Sheneededtherun has been in the best of form this winter and has scored over track and trip in the past. Pretty Miss Mahler won this off the same mark 12 months ago and is another to consider.

QUASHA offered plenty of encouragement when fourth at Market Rasen earlier this month and Charles Pogson's six-year-old could be the answer off a 1lb lower mark. Dontdelay looks to need a real stamina test to be at his best and the recent Hexham winner would be interesting if there was plenty of rain around, while a mistake two from home cost Ballyfarsoon when he was third at Doncaster and he's well worth another try over this trip.
