Successful in two hurdle races at 2m 3f and 2m 6f on good to firm ground. Fell 4 out when 10-1 at Newton Abbot over 2m 3f (good) in a selling hurdle race won by Arctic Watch last month on his latest outing. Has won at Stratford and Newton Abbot this season.

Successful in two hurdle races at 2m 3f on good to firm ground. Well beaten at 11-1 behind Occasionally Yours when 11th of 13 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Worcester over 2m 4f (good to firm) in June last year.

Highland River warrants respect now turned out under a penalty for a comfortable victory at Towcester last week and merits consideration along with Southway Star, who had the beating of TIGGER (second) at Newton Abbot in August. However, over this longer trip and now racing right-handed, David Pipe's charge is taken to reverse the placings. C&D scorer Heir To Be has dropped 5lb below his last winning mark and is also considered.
Southway Star has different conditions to cope with as she bids to confirm recent placings with Tigger, but the latter is becoming frustrating, and she's worth chancing. Diamanpeg must avoid the errors which have held him back recently, but is preferred to Highland River for minor honours.
Winner of two hurdle races, a NH flat race and four chases from 2m to 2m 7f on ground varying from good to firm to heavy. Well beaten at 5-1 when fifth of 8 on his latest outing in a chase at Exeter over 3m (good to firm) earlier this month.

Winner of five chases from 2m 5f to 3m on ground varying from good to heavy. Well beaten at 5-1 behind Monty's Revenge when 13th of 15 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Worcester over 3m (good) in July.

Petito has run well around this trip on the hurdles track here and would be dangerous if granted a soft lead at the head of affairs. Nevertheless, the safer alternative appears to be SURFBOARD, who knows what is required to win around here, has dropped 10lb lower than his last winning mark over fences, and ended his barren run when scoring over hurdles in August. Sadler's Star, up 8lb for his Fontwell romp, is also considered.
Recent winner Sadler's Star and Petito have to be respected, but the front-running Gunship could prove difficult to catch if back on song after a break.
Unplaced in all three starts over hurdles. Well beaten at 16-1 behind Caribbean Sea when seventh of 12 on his latest outing in a maiden hurdle race at Kilbeggan over 2m 3f (good to firm) in April. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with J Halley in Ireland.

Now fitted with a first-time visor, it might be worth chancing that BATHWICK SCANNO can reproduce the front-running tactics that saw him take second at Newton Abbot in September to try slip this small field. Captain Dash is feared most, ahead of Falcon Flight and Vicpol, as he fails to pick up a penalty for his recent chase win at Worcester now moving back over timber and looks well handicapped, being 3lb well in on official figures.
Captain Dash impressed over fences on his debut for Tim Vaughan and, able to race from the same mark here, is taken to follow up at the main expense of Vicpol.
He has won four chases from 2m 7f to 3m 5f on ground varying from good to heavy. Pulled up at the 14th when 9-2 at Newton Abbot over 3m 2f (good) in a chase won by Estates Recovery in April on his latest outing.

El Diego turned in his best chase effort to date when second in a small field affair at Exeter last time and shaped as if worth a try over this longer trip. Fontwell specialist Orion Star isn't handicapped out of things either and is entitled to go well, but SKIPPER'S LAD looks capable of landing his first course win if reproducing the form shown when second in a 0-115 contest here in March. Although he's now 6lb higher, there may be better to come.
Not a race to dwell on, with the returning El Diego selected ahead of Orion Star.
Placed in four hurdle races from five NH starts. Third of 10 behind Surf And Turf beaten 4l at 8-11fav on his latest NH outing in a maiden hurdle race over this course and distance (good) in April.

Giant O Murchu is 1lb ahead of the handicapper now turned out under a penalty for his 2m success at Towcester while Dancewiththedevil is considered even better treated with his 7lb burden as he's due to go up 19lb when his revised rating kicks in. Nevertheless, it might be worth siding with the less exposed SWIFT CHAP, who is making his handicap debut for Philip Hobbs today after showing plenty of promise in maiden company.
Impressive recent winners Dancewiththedevil, Giant O Murchu and Bolanderi look the 3 to concentrate on, the first named finally taking advantage of his reduced mark when trouncing an in-form rival at Worcester, and he looks the pick of the trio.

After failing to stay 2m3f at Fontwell last time, it wouldn't have taken connections long to muse over this drop in trip for Plug In Baby. Freedom Flyer is another with place claims on the pick of his best hurdling effort, when second in a Stratford claimer in June, but there is likely better to come from RAINY CHAMPION now he is dropped back to the minimum trip and, in an open looking affair, David Pipe's charge receives a tentative vote.
Given doubts over the well-being of Freedom Flyer and the resolution of Rainy Champion, it may pay to side with Guards Chapel, who should leave his first effort over hurdles well behind now fitted with a visor.
