Unbeaten in this discipline, ROCKS UP LATE has adapted well to chasing and has a big chance of extending his winning sequence to 3-3 over the larger obstacles. The son of Vadamos looked to be at the end of his tether stamina-wise when he won over 2m2f at Fontwell last month and this shorter trip can help to offset a 5lb higher rating. Jaipaletemps and Rathmacknee can make this a good test if matching anything like their best.

KING ROLY impressed when his breezed home in a three-runner event at Ffos Las most recently and a 3lb higher mark looks a readily scalable barrier here. Jet Smart has been in excellent form in point-to-points and he is one to monitor in the betting on his Rules debut. However, Jeudidee's Huntingdon success reads well in the context of this race and, as the more proven over regulation fences, he is likely to be a bigger danger to the selection.

FROMHERETOETERNITY went down fighting when she finished second at Warwick at the start of this month and were it not for landing awkwardly at the last, she could have been heading here in search of back-to-back wins. Running off just 2lb higher presents the Jennie Candlish-trained mare with a good chance of gaining some compensation this time. Vocito and Honneur D'Ajonc, who debuts for a new trainer, have respectable credentials and also warrant serious consideration.

TARAHUMARA was far from disgraced when finishing third in this grade at Warwick last month and he goes off an unchanged rating. With Harry Cobden booked, the nine-year-old looks the one to beat. Handlethekettle struck in this sphere at Taunton prior to disappointing over fences at Ffos Las, but he has to be respected on his first outing in a handicap over the smaller obstacles. Whizz Kid is another to watch out for.

AMBER WAVES has taken the silver medal home in both of her career starts and she could have lots more to offer. The daughter of Ulysses might only need to reproduce either of those runs in order to shed her maiden tag. Twirling is rated in the 90s on the Flat and goes for the Nicky Henderson team, so she is likely to be on the premises. Gordon Grey is another to keep an eye on.

Having justified favouritism to open his account over hurdles at Southwell recently, CARLTON is sure to prove a warm order to follow up. James Owen's charge scored with plenty in the tank and may make light work of a 7lb penalty. Ez Tiger ended his latest campaign with a runner-up effort at Uttoxeter and the eight-year-old may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of the lightly-raced Holy Legend.

Gore Point bagged his first triumph over hurdles when getting up in the shadows of the post on his handicap bow at Newton Abbot a fortnight ago. A 6lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another bold bid from the lightly-raced five-year-old, but STAR LEGEND may prove slightly better handicapped. The son of Galileo arrives on the back of a hat-trick on the level and a switch to this code could provide further glory. Fine Point is the pick of the remainder.
