Successful in two hurdle races at 2m 4f on heavy and yielding - soft ground, but last win was over two years ago. Well beaten at 16-1 behind Sweet World when seventh of 8 on his latest outing in a hurdle race here over 2m (good) last month.

SAGREDO had to settle for second best over 2m5f at Wetherby last month but the drop in trip should suit and he is entitled to come on for that as it was his first run since October. The Boss is considered but he might find this trip on the sharp side and the same comments apply to Diamond Eclipse. Kusadasi was well beaten over hurdles here on his first run for David Pipe but better can be expected today. Olympian is also respected.
Kusadasi has a lowly chase mark to go to war with on his first run in this sphere for David Pipe and he might be worth chancing in a race featuring a few questionable characters. Diamond Eclipse has a small race in him and he could provide the main opposition.
He has won three hurdle races from 2m 1f to 2m 6f on good to firm and good ground. Pulled up having jumped the last when 8-1 at Newbury over 3m (good to soft) in a hurdle race won by Sivola De Sivola in November last year on his latest outing.

LIKE MINDED was a beaten odds-on favourite on his only previous run over fences but he has the highest hurdles rating of these and he has the scope to make a useful chaser. Valento, a winner over hurdles at Kempton last time, is worthy of consideration on his chasing debut and Sangfroid is also entitled to make his presence felt. Henry Daly's mare, Francesa, can also take a hand and Caddie Master could not be ruled out with confidence on his debut over larger obstacles.
Caddie Master is an interesting recruit to chasing and he is taken to get the better of Valento and Like Minded.
Winner of two hurdle races and three chases from 2m 1f to 3m on ground varying from good to firm to heavy. Pulled up at the 14th when 25-1 in the Group 3 bet365 Gold Cup Chase at Sandown over 3m 5f (soft) in a Grade 3 chase won by Tidal Bay in April on his latest outing.

Qaspal is becoming disappointing over fences but he would take all the beating here if reproducing his best hurdles form. That is looking less and less likely now though. LOUIS PASTEUR will find this much tougher than the Newton Abbot hunters' chase which he won last month but he did score with plenty in hand and he can go well here. Herons Well has decent claims if bouncing back to his best and Swing Bill is interesting with blinkers applied for the first time.
Qaspal has been threatening to come good in this sphere and is taken to get the better of Newton Abbot winner Louis Pasteur, with Herons Well also expected to run well back over a more suitable trip.
Well beaten at 25-1 behind Anna's Arch when seventh of 11 on his racecourse debut at Bangor over 2m 1f (good) in August last year. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with R Ford.

LISTEN AND LEARN was narrowly denied when runner-up on his debut at Newton Abbot last month but that was a sound effort and he should take plenty of beating this afternoon with improvement likely. My Lad Percy should improve for his debut experience and he could make the frame, whilst Parkam Jack, who has shown ability between the flags, is also respected on his debut under NH rules.
Listen And Learn could well be in a different league to these and can take this en route to better things. Handsome Buddy and My Lad Percy can make a place.
Placed in two hurdle races from nine NH starts (latest flat win was in February). Pulled up at the 11th when 33-1 at Fontwell over 2m 6f (heavy) in a chase won by Master d'Or in January on his latest NH outing.

Bob Casey is beginning to look very nicely handicapped on his best form and he is respected here, along with Pierre Dubh, who has been raised 9lb for his Wincanton success last month. Native Breeze took a step in the right direction at Stratford last week and she could get involved but a chance is taken on HERO'S CALL. She showed glimmers of ability in novice hurdles and although she finished well beaten on her handicap debut last time, she might still have more to offer.
Hero's Call and Native Breeze shaped better last time and enter calculations, but it might be worth chancing Johnny No Cash on his hurdling bow, with new trainer Dai Williams back among the winners this week.
Winner of two hurdle races and three chases from 2m to 2m 6f on ground varying from good to firm to heavy. Well beaten at 66-1 behind American Spin when 11th of 18 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Haydock over 3m (soft) last month.

Qulinton looks fairly treated on the pick of his form over larger obstacles but he was well beaten over hurdles at Haydock last time. His stablemate, Midnight Tuesday, has been raised 8lb for his C&D success last month but he merits respect as does Warne's Way, who has the assistance of McCoy. Unpartou is considered on his handicap debut and Harry Tricker could not be ruled out with confidence but ULTRAVOX gets a tentative vote. He showed signs of a return to form when third at Newton Abbot last time and he could be ready to capitalise on his attractive mark.
With the majority of the field having something to prove for one reason or another, it's hard to get away from recent C&D winner Midnight Tuesday. Unpartou may well get his act together now handicapping with headgear on, and he could emerge as the chief threat.
A winner of a NH flat race at 2m 1f on heavy ground, but that win was over two years ago. Well beaten at 4-1 behind Alverstone when fifth of 12 on his hurdling debut at Chepstow over 3m (good to soft) in October '10.

Bens Moor is an interesting contender despite his lengthy layoff and dual Irish point-to-point winner Shinrock Beat is respected on his debut under NH rules. Martial Law finished runner-up when odds-on favourite at Towcester last month but that form gives him solid claims today. However, slight preference is for PEARLS LEGEND, who ran well over 2m here last time and should be suited by the step up to this trip.
This looks a straightforward opportunity for Martial Law to open his account over hurdles. Tiquer can grab a share of the place money if recapturing the form he showed in France, while Pearls Legend showed enough when third here last month to think he too will also be vying for more minor honours.

Point-to-point winner ACCORDING TO TREV showed a good attitude to score in a Folkestone bumper over 2m2f on his NH debut. With this trip no problem, he could make a winning hurdling debut. Wild West was narrowly denied in a Market Rasen bumper last month and he looks a likely contender on his hurdling bow. Earth Tremor must also be considered on his first run since joining the Tim Vaughan yard.
Wild West is bred to make his mark over jumps and gets the nod to win at the first attempt on his hurdling bow. Point winner According To Trev made a winning bumper debut at Folkestone in February and is another interesting hurdles newcomer. Earth Tremor had his chances in Ireland, but is still respected in first-time tongue tie.
