(2) Asta La Pasta 11/8, A three-time hurdles winner last season around 2m and shaped encouragingly on his chase debut in a similar event at Ffos Las after 7 months off, despite looking in need of the experience in the jumping department. Sure to progress, though unproven over this far. 3 novice hurdle wins last season; encouraging third on chase debut and could build on that.

2nd (3) (14/1 -17%) Kilta
14
14/1(-17%)
(3) Kilta 14/1, Hasn't convinced as a chaser back on conventional tracks in 2 starts since his chasing debut win at Cartmel in May, jumping none too fluently under a patient ride at Worcester when last seen 4 months ago. Takes on 2 promising rivals on return and cheekpieces go on. Won on chase debut at Cartmel in May but two lesser runs have followed.

|F| (1) (4/5 -10%) Pic Roc
0.8
4/5(-10%)
(1) Pic Roc 4/5, Useful winning hurdler who ran two crackers in good Sandown handicaps over this trip to end last season. Will make a chaser and must demand serious respect on return. Strong handicap hurdle form at end of last term; could be type to make even better chaser.
12:00 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
PIC ROC (runner-up) readily accounted for Asta La Pasta (11th) when they clashed in a decent handicap hurdle at Sandown in March and the son of Mount Nelson, who looks every inch a chaser, can confirm his superiority if he takes to fences at the first time of asking. Kilta won a similar three-runner race at Cartmel on his chasing debut but has something to prove with cheekpieces added, having been soundly beaten on both starts since.
PIC ROC looks all over a chaser and is taken to concede 8 lb to the race-fit Asta La Pasta and make a successful start in this sphere. His yard has enjoyed plenty of winners first time out in the last few months and unlike Dan Skelton's charge, his stamina is proven.
Preference is for PIC ROC, who showed strong form in handicap hurdles in the spring and looks the type to do well over fences.
(7) No Questions Asked 4/9, Point winner who won a Market Rasen bumper and showed useful form when sixth in an Aintree Grade 2 in the spring. Good hurdles prospect and this looks a great opening first time up. Hood goes on. Creditable sixth in Grade 2 bumper at Aintree in April; strong claims on hurdle debut.

2nd (3) (9/1 0%) Cahier's Den
9
9/1(0%)
(3) Cahier's Den 9/1, €5,500 3-y-o, £20,000 4-y-o, Idaho gelding. Dam, ran twice over hurdles, half-sister to fair hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 29f) Ballyadam Approach. Won second of 2 outings in Irish points (May 5). 1 of 2 appealing newcomers for yard. Point winner; Brian Hughes rides stablemate Barrabooka, but not ruled out.

3rd (1) (9/2 -29%) Barrabooka
4.5
9/2(-29%)
(1) Barrabooka 9/2, Presenting gelding. Dam unraced sister to top-class hurdler/very smart chaser (winner up to 21f) Oscar Whisky. Successful sole outing in Irish points (Jan 2023). From a good family and makes plenty of appeal on Rules debut despite long absence. Point win in January 2023; absent since but no surprise if he goes well under Brian Hughes.

4th (8) (125/1 -25%) Powerofjet
125
125/1(-25%)
(8) Powerofjet 125/1, Third completed start in Irish points and well held in couple of 2m hurdles last month. Probably a staying handicapper. Displayed some ability in points but well beaten at triple-figure odds on both hurdle runs.
5th
10
5th (10) (16/1 -14%) Beorma
16
16/1(-14%)
(10) Beorma 16/1, Just modest form at best in bumpers for Thomas Gallagher this term, pulling hard under former owner/rider. Has joined Dan Skelton ahead of hurdles debut. Worth a look in the betting. Didn't achieve much in bumpers but Dan Skelton does well with recruits from other yards.
6th
9
6th (9) (11/1 +8%) Willie Shake Hands
11
11/1(+8%)
(9) Willie Shake Hands 11/1, Imposing sort but didn't do himself justice sent hurdling at Sedgefield in a hood/tongue strap having shown ability in a bumper for Ciaran Murphy 7 months earlier. Type to do better somewhere down the line. The switch to a right-handed track can suit on second hurdle start; not written off.
7th
5
7th (5) (28/1 +72%) Fond Farewell
28
28/1(+72%)
(5) Fond Farewell 28/1, Modest handicapper at best on Flat, well held twice in that sphere and in 2 goes over hurdles for current yard. Operated at lowly level on the Flat and well beaten at 150-1 on first two hurdle starts.
8th
4
8th (4) (25/1 +24%) Cringle Burn
25
25/1(+24%)
(4) Cringle Burn 25/1, Doyen gelding. Dam 2½m hurdle winner, half-sister to smart hurdler/high-class chaser (stayed 23f) Kalashnikov. Dam from talented family; yard enjoyed excellent October; not discounted on debut.
2
2
|PU| (2) (200/1 -100%) Barrister Blaster
200
200/1(-100%)
(2) Barrister Blaster 200/1, Modest maiden on Flat (stays 9f), down the field in handicap when last seen 16 months ago on final start for Mark Weatherer. Very modest maiden on the Flat and he would be a shock winner on hurdle/stable debut.
12:30 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Based on the potential he showed when winning a bumper on his Rules debut before finishing a respectable sixth in a Grade 2 event at Aintree last time out, NO QUESTIONS ASKED is an intriguing option starting out over hurdles at this level. As is the case with the selection, stable companions Barrabooka and Cahier's Den also boast winning point-to-point form and they, too, catch the eye on their first starts for a highly respected yard.
NO QUESTIONS ASKED was beaten only 6 lengths in a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree when last seen and may have been found a good opening for his hurdles debut. Donald McCain sends out a couple of promising point winners in Barrabooka and Cahier's Den, while Beorma is worth a look having joined Dan Skelton ahead of her first crack over jumps.
This looks a good opportunity for useful bumper performer NO QUESTIONS ASKED to make a winning start over hurdles.
12:30 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(9) We're Red And Blue 6/4, Debut bumper winner and shaped well when second of 10 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) 24 days ago. The form pick. Runner-up at Uttoxeter and there's a suspicion that form will work out well; key player.
2
7
2nd (7) (3/1 -9%) Jet To Vegas
3
3/1(-9%)
(7) Jet To Vegas 3/1, Easy winner sole outing in Irish points in May. Had breathing operation before shaping well when second of 7 in bumper at Carlisle last month. Interesting hurdling debutant. Point winner and bumper runner-up who could have a big say now tackling hurdles.
3
6
3rd (6) (7/2 -100%) Idaho Valley
3.5
7/2(-100%)
(6) Idaho Valley 7/2, Idaho gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Toss Again. Won his only start in Irish points in February so a likely player with Brian Hughes up on his hurdling bow. Won on debut in Irish point; half-brother to useful Toss Again; could play leading role.
4
1
4th (1) (16/1 +0%) Balcomie Breeze
16
16/1(+0%)
(1) Balcomie Breeze 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Pulled up in novice hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f, good to soft, 40/1) on hurdles bow 26 days ago, losing place quickly 4 out. Promise in good-ground bumpers in early 2023.
5th
8
5th (8) (50/1 0%) Sam's Falcon
50
50/1(0%)
(8) Sam's Falcon 50/1, Ninth of 10 in bumper (12/1) at Sedgefield on NH debut 22 days ago. Makes hurdles debut with lots more required. Brother to the useful Sam's Gunner; interference costly on debut; not ruled out each-way.
6th

6th (2) (18/1 -100%) Bo Cruz
18
18/1(-100%)
(2) Bo Cruz 18/1, £19,000 5-y-o, Doyen gelding. Dam (c114/h113) 17f-2¾m hurdle/chase winner (stayed 3m). Runner-up in an Irish point so he's a considered newcomer. Point runner-up; Idaho Valley may be the yard's chief hope under Brian Hughes.
7th

7th (5) (125/1 -25%) Didntgotwenty
125
125/1(-25%)
(5) Didntgotwenty 125/1, Unplaced both starts in Irish points and only eighth of 10 in novice hurdle (100/1) over C&D on NH debut 25 days ago. Hinted at ability in a point but tailed off at 100-1 on last month's hurdle debut over C&D.
8th
3
8th (3) (125/1 -25%) Cage Rattler
125
125/1(-25%)
(3) Cage Rattler 125/1, Modest 7f Flat winner who came in eighth of 12 in novice hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, good, 125/1) on NH debut 6 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Modest on the Flat and this headstrong sort was tailed off at 125-1 on recent hurdle debut.
13:00 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
As is the case with division one of this race, Donald McCain is dually represented with notable recruits from the point-to-point scene. Bo Cruz showed promise when second on his most recent start between the flags, but IDAHO VALLEY, a game maiden winner at Tallow and half-brother to winning hurdler/chaser Toss Again, looks the main hope based on jockey bookings. We're Red And Blue appeals most from those with hurdles experience, while Jet To Vegas was a promising second in a bumper here last month and is also considered.
The market should reveal plenty but Donald McCain's Irish point scorer IDAHO VALLEY is taken to go in at the first time of asking in this sphere with Brian Hughes in the saddle. We're Red And Blue is much the pick of those with experience and rates a big threat though, with other newcomers Jet To Vegas and Bo Cruz also worthy of consideration.
Bumper winner WE'RE RED AND BLUE was a promising second at Uttoxeter last month and is taken to go one better on his third hurdle start.
13:00 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(7) Horsesomeharry 8/1, Never landed a blow in 3 starts over hurdles last term but improvement is likely now upped in trip on handicap debut. Cheekpieces on for first time. All the more interesting if backed. Needs another step forward on h'cap debut but the step up in trip may well be a positive.
2
11
2nd (11) (13/2 +74%) Emotional Roller
6.5
13/2(+74%)
(11) Emotional Roller 13/2, Promise when third of 12 on 2½m Wetherby handicap debut last December but hasn't built on that in 4 outings since, the latest at Worcester 11 weeks ago. Dropping down the weights but he struggled in the summer on his last three starts.
3
2
3rd (2) (40/1 -186%) Haveanothergoflo
40
40/1(-186%)
(2) Haveanothergoflo 40/1, Successful sole start in Irish points and third in maiden hurdles at Ayr and over C&D in early 2023. Pulled up (found to have an irregular heartbeat) on Uttoxeter chase debut last November and not seen since. Promise in maiden hurdles in early 2023; pulled up in chase that November and absent since.
4
1
4th (1) (10/1 +0%) Gasmani
10
10/1(+0%)
(1) Gasmani 10/1, Winner of bumper at Newcastle in March. Fourth in maiden/novice events over 2m since switching to hurdles and potential improver now making a quick switch to handicaps over a longer trip. Not obviously well treated for handicap debut but could relish the step up in trip.
5th
9
5th (9) (7/2 +46%) Get A Superstar
3.5
7/2(+46%)
(9) Get A Superstar 7/2, Yet to add to his bumper victory but has run with credit when fourth in 4 handicaps this season, beaten under 2 lengths at Sedgefield with cheekpieces added (retained) on latest. Good fourth in first-time cheekpieces at Sedgefield last time and could be thereabouts.
6th
10
6th (10) (18/1 -29%) Heeztheboy
18
18/1(-29%)
(10) Heeztheboy 18/1, Made a winning chase and handicap debut at Hexham (2m, heavy) last December. A heavy fall next time possibly dented his confidence in that sphere and he now returns to hurdles in a bid to get his career back on track. Well handicapped on last season's best chase form and a break may have helped.
7th
8
7th (8) (6/1 +14%) Ruler Legend
6
6/1(+14%)
(8) Ruler Legend 6/1, Useful Flat performer who landed short odds on his handicap hurdle debut in March. Below that level in 2 outings the following month but arrives fit from a respectable effort on the Flat and with his yard going well. Considered. Soundly beaten on last two hurdle starts but well treated judged on his Flat ability.
8th
3
8th (3) (14/1 -87%) Joie More
14
14/1(-87%)
(3) Joie More 14/1, Made the frame in points and has shown promise over hurdles, including fifth of 9 on C&D handicap debut/reappearance 18 days ago. Should be sharper with that behind him. Respected. Ran well for long way over C&D on reappearance; could improve for that outing; considered.
9th
5
9th (5) (9/2 0%) She's Notjoeking
4.5
9/2(0%)
(5) She's Notjoeking 9/2, Bumper winner who got off the mark over hurdles in 5-runner juvenile hurdle at Hexham in April. Shaped as if better for the run when 18 lengths third in 2m novice there on reappearance last month. Steps up in trip for handicap debut. Unexposed. Bumper and 4yo hurdle winner; the step up in trip could be a positive on handicap debut.
10th
4
10th (4) (7/1 +42%) Top Man Tom
7
7/1(+42%)
(4) Top Man Tom 7/1, Winning pointer who was visored when second of 13 in a maiden hurdles at Uttoxeter in July. Subsequently sold out of Ben Pauling's yard for £13,500 and went without the headgear when well held in Kelso novice for new yard in September. Handicap debut. Handicap debut; well beaten on first stable start but case can be made on previous form.
11th
6
11th (6) (18/1 -177%) Jo Arengeot Bey Aa
18
18/1(-177%)
(6) Jo Arengeot Bey Aa 18/1, Fetched £50,000 after winning his sole start in points. Little better than third in maiden/novice hurdles last season but he is unexposed now switching to a handicap on return. Handicap debut; hasn't really shone over hurdles but promise previously.
13:30 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Although he failed to kick on after his breakthrough victory over hurdles at Huntingdon in March, RULER LEGEND showed that he is in decent condition with his fourth-placed return on the Flat at Newbury last month. The son of Camelot is open to improvement over today's 2m4f distance and he's fancied to regain the winning thread. Handicap debutant Horsesomeharry is another who may appreciate this rise in trip and the six-year-old is feared most, ahead of Get A Superstar.
HORSESOMEHARRY wouldn't be the first from his yard to prove a different proposition in handicaps and gets the vote, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Joie More shaped quite well on his C&D handicap debut last month and is second choice ahead of Ruler Legend, who retains handicapping scope on his Flat ability and hails from an in-form stable. In common with the selection, She's Not Joeking is an unexposed type who could improve in handicaps.
Having looked a threat only to fade over C&D on his handicap debut, JOIE MORE is taken to improve for that outing and come out on top.
(1) Nells Son 12/1, Consistent sort who scored over C&D and at Kelso last term. Much respected on his seasonal return. He needs the others to underperform but this C&D winner has excellent reappearance record.
2
2
2nd (2) (15/2 -200%) Unexpected Party
7.5
15/2(-200%)
(2) Unexpected Party 15/2, Landed Grand Annual Chase at Cheltenham last season. Shaped encouragingly after 7 months off despite coming in last of 5 in Old Roan Chase at Aintree last month. Big shout. Won last season's Grand Annual and he's a key player if he's at his best.
3
3
3rd (3) (5/2 +17%) Path D'oroux
2.5
5/2(+17%)
(3) Path D'oroux 5/2, Finally got off the mark in this sphere in 4-runner novice chase at Cheltenham (15.9f, good) 17 days ago. This is tougher but he's still not taken lightly. Ran well in defeat in some top handicaps last season; strong candidate if he's at his best.

|F| (4) (4/11 +76%) Kalif Du Berlais
0.363636
4/11(+76%)
(4) Kalif Du Berlais 4/11, Landed a newcomers hurdle at Compiegne last October and won twice after at Kempton for his current yard, including the Grade 2 Adonis Hurdle. Remains lightly raced and an interesting chasing debutant. Won 4yo Grade 2 hurdle last term; top trainer has extremely high hopes for him over fences.
14:00 Carlisle Conditions Chase (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Not for the first time, UNEXPECTED PARTY's stamina appeared stretched by the 2m4f distance when finishing last in the Old Roan Chase at Aintree last month. Last season's Grand Annual hero should appreciate this stiff 2m and any improvement for his seasonal debut should make him tough to beat. Path D'oroux justified cramped odds in a novice chase at Cheltenham 17 days ago and another bold bid is forecast from Gavin Cromwell's charge, while four-year-old Kalif Du Berlais is an intriguing chase debutant with his handy weight-for-age allowance.
None of these can be ruled out but preference is for Dan Skelton's Grand Annual Chase victor UNEXPECTED PARTY who shaped as if his reappearance fifth in Aintree's Old Roan Chase would put him spot on here. Paul Nicholls saddles an interesting chasing newcomer in the shape of Adonis Hurdle winner Kalif du Berlais and Irish-challenger Path d'Oroux also warrants plenty of respect in this intriguing contest.
The 4yo KALIF DU BERLAIS won a Grade 2 over hurdles at Kempton in February and can exploit the 8lb allowance on his chasing debut.
(7) Disco Annie 12/1, Surpassed bumper form when finding only one too good in 17f Cartmel novice in May. Not in the same form over C&D 5 months later but she might have needed the run. Handicap debut. Could be back on better ground here which may be a plus; every chance she'll make bold bid.
2
2
2nd (2) (7/2 -5%) Strictly Tango
3.5
7/2(-5%)
(2) Strictly Tango 7/2, Third in first 2 hurdles (trained in Ireland on debut) before making it third time lucky in maiden at Sedgefield (2m, soft) last month, making all. Should be competitive from this opening handicap mark. Won Sedgefield maiden last month and could have potential off his opening mark.
3
4
3rd (4) (3/1 +60%) Diamond Koda
3
3/1(+60%)
(4) Diamond Koda 3/1, Fairly useful form when runner-up all 3 starts in bumpers. Also filled the same position on his completed starts in maiden hurdles in the spring. Makes handicap debut back from 7 months off. Lightly raced and consistent 5yo who may be on a handy opening mark.
4
1
4th (1) (5/1 -100%) Knomorediamonds
5
5/1(-100%)
(1) Knomorediamonds 5/1, Improved effort over hurdles when narrowly denied on C&D handicap debut 25 days ago. Raised 4 lb for that but it's likely this 4-y-o has more to offer. Leading claims. Close second on last month's handicap debut over C&D and open to further improvement.
5th
5
5th (5) (22/1 -10%) Rock Hurley
22
22/1(-10%)
(5) Rock Hurley 22/1, Won pair of 4-y-o hurdles in France but has been well below that level in 5 starts for current connections. It remains to be seen whether a 9-month break has had a reviving effect. Two-time French winner; has tumbled down the weights in Britain but for good reason.
6th
8
6th (8) (14/1 +44%) Paddy O'mahler
14
14/1(+44%)
(8) Paddy O'mahler 14/1, Reached the frame in a couple of handicaps last spring and shaped as if needing his first outing in 166 days when sixth of 9 over 2½m here recently. The drop back in trip isn't certain to help. On a competitive mark on last term's best form but now 0-12 and needs to get back to best.
7th
10
7th (10) (28/1 +15%) Fat Harry
28
28/1(+15%)
(10) Fat Harry 28/1, Brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Silva Eclipse. Didn't show that much in a trio of maiden/novice hurdles at the end of 2023 but handicaps provide him with a more realistic chance. One of 2 from the stable. Market check advised on handicap debut but well beaten on his three runs in autumn 2023.
8th
9
8th (9) (9/2 +10%) Dino Bellagio
4.5
9/2(+10%)
(9) Dino Bellagio 9/2, Dual bumper winner. Yet to better poor form over hurdles but her reappearance fourth over C&D was more encouraging and no surprise were she to prove a different proposition in handicaps. Hasn't really shone over hurdles but is on lowly opening mark relative to bumper promise.
9th
11
9th (11) (10/1 +70%) Bravethewaves
10
10/1(+70%)
(11) Bravethewaves 10/1, Still a maiden and didn't shape with much obvious encouragement back from 18 months off at Stratford 23 days ago. Market check advised on second start back from absence but he tailed off on comeback.
3
3
|U| (3) (40/1 -264%) Hourless
40
40/1(-264%)
(3) Hourless 40/1, Modest Flat winner who made a successful start over hurdles at Hexham for Alan King in June 2023. Runner-up on next 2 hurdle starts for that yard (including a handicap) and set to finish a respectable third when unseating last in Catterick juvenile for John Dixon last December. Off since. On a competitive mark but may be best watched on first run since last December (below par).
14:30 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
An opening mark of 106 could prove lenient for DIAMOND KODA, who found only a subsequent winner too strong at Fakenham in April. Nick Kent's inmate may prove a tough nut to crack if resuming in the same form and a first career triumph could be on the cards. Knomorediamonds finished a close-up second on his handicap bow over C&D last month and he isn't taken lightly off a 4lb higher rating. Strictly Tango and Dino Bellagio are also noted.
Lucinda Russell's KNOWMOREDIAMONDS is taken to build on his promising opening effort in handicaps over C&D last month. Dino Bellagio is a potentially dangerous opponent as her bumper ability certainly gives her scope from an opening mark in the 90s. Sedgefield maiden winner Strictly Tango also makes the shortlist.
It's likely that DISCO ANNIE will be back on better ground for this handicap debut and she gets the nod. Diamond Koda is feared.
(6) Divas Doyen 11/1, Has found just one too good over fences on several occasions and can be expected to strip fitter for her latest effort at Kelso, so not one to rule out. Maiden; runner-up 4 times over fences at up to 2m7f; relatively exposed now.
2
1
2nd (1) (6/5 +20%) Similar Story
1.2
6/5(+20%)
(1) Similar Story 6/5, Easy winner of an Irish point and left previous Rules efforts behind when making a winning chasing debut at Kelso 16 days ago. More to come in this sphere and is clearly the one to beat. Won Irish point; winning chase debut over 2m7f at Kelso recently; has some potential.
3
2
3rd (2) (13/2 +46%) Bolintlea
6.5
13/2(+46%)
(2) Bolintlea 13/2, Fair chaser who arrives on the back of a couple of poor efforts, back over hurdles at Worcester last time. Needs to return to form after a short break. Won 3m chase in January 2023; bitty since and well held over fences and hurdles of late.
4
8
4th (8) (7/1 +56%) Fiadh
7
7/1(+56%)
(8) Fiadh 7/1, Ended last season out of sorts over hurdles and will probably need this chasing debut in terms of both fitness and experience. Handy mark on chase debut; more moderate runs than good ones since hurdle win in Mar 2023.
5th
4
5th (4) (6/1 -50%) Jalisco Star
6
6/1(-50%)
(4) Jalisco Star 6/1, Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle (7/1) at Bangor (23.2f, heavy) 13 days ago. Makes chase debut. Can make presence felt if she takes to the larger obstacles. Placed in Irish points; ready 2m7f hurdle winner in March; close 3rd latest; chase debut.
6th
5
6th (5) (14/1 -56%) Baby Chou
14
14/1(-56%)
(5) Baby Chou 14/1, Seventh of 13 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at Wexford (16.7f, good to soft) 96 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Kinirons. One to monitor in the betting. Won Irish point in March; something to prove on subsequent runs now back over fences.
3

|F| (3) (7/1 -27%) Maimie's Magic
7
7/1(-27%)
(3) Maimie's Magic 7/1, Fair hurdler who wasn't at the top of his game towards the end of last year. Switches to chasing after 7 months off and returns on a feasible mark. Two hurdle wins; stays 2m6f; below best in March; chase debut with tongue-tie left off.
7
7
|PU| (7) (25/1 +24%) Darsi's Darling
25
25/1(+24%)
(7) Darsi's Darling 25/1, Shaped well on the first of her 2 starts in bumpers but hasn't shown a great deal over hurdles. Switches to fences on return but others are more appealing. Has shown ability in bumper company and over hurdles; chasing could be more her game.
15:05 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
JALISCO STAR looked to improve on her first start after wind surgery when fourth at Bangor over hurdles, beaten less than six lengths, and if she takes to fences at the first attempt, she should go close. Similar Story did win her only chase so far at Kelso but she was all out to get up over 3m and may struggle for pace over this trip off 5lb higher, while Maimie's Magic travels over from Ireland and is well worth a market check.
Ex-pointer SIMILAR STORY relished the switch to chasing when successful at Kelso last month and should improve for a while over fences, so he's preferred to chasing-debutants Maimie's Magic and Jalisco Star.
Jalisco Star is an interesting chase debutante but SIMILAR STORY (nap) made a good start over fences at Kelso and can follow up.

150/1(-127%)
(10) Pour Tout Le Monde 150/1, Related to a bumper winner and showed a bit at the second attempt when fifth at Sedgefield a month ago. Needs a fair bit more to compete, though. Midfield at Sedgefield on both starts; hasn't shown enough to suggest she'll win this.
11th

11th (9) (150/1 -50%) Phillyscope
150
150/1(-50%)
(9) Phillyscope 150/1, Telescope filly. Dam, lightly raced and little show over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful chaser (stayed 31f) Boric. Others preferred. First foal; dam half-sister to two winners; a watching brief is advised on debut.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Getawhisky represents the in-form Skelton team and, as a daughter of Getaway related to some decent sorts, she can go well if her inexperience doesn't count against her. Donald McCain's Roses All The Way looks the best of his two runners, with her point-to-point second franked by the winner subsequently taking a Uttoxeter bumper, but I'VE MADEUPMYMIND seems the one to beat. Beaten less than seven lengths in both a Listed race at Sandown and a decent bumper at Cheltenham, she ought to find this level much more to her liking.
I'VE MADEUPMYMIND has already shown a good level of form and can put her experience to good use on return. Getawhisky looks an appealing newcomer for a top yard and Roses All The Way is an interesting recruit from points.
Preference is for the Dan Skelton-trained GETAWHISKY who is a sister to the highly talented two-time Carlisle winner One For Rosie.
