The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

A JET OF OUR OWN won this last season by a head and has every chance of doubling up after a solid fifth at Aintree where he weakened late on over further. He is officially rated 5lb better than main danger Barton Snow, who arrives in good form after winning at Stratford in March. The rest look up against it in this field, though Kansas Du Berlais may have more to offer.

Barton Snow's last win now reads well but preference is for last year's winner and recent Aintree fifth A JET OF OUR OWN.

The majority of these have been competing in point-to-points recently with the exception of SNAP FISH, who won a hunter chase at Exeter last month by a very easy 23 lengths. He may be able to put that experience to good use, though Clashhill is an interesting rival. Winner of his last four point-to-point outings, stamina appears to be his strong suit and he makes plenty of appeal. Mumbo Jumbo and Paper Mill are others to consider.

As is often the case in this race, some unexposed and improving pointers clash. IMPORTANT NOTICE might be the answer.

New headgear could help Alaphilippe back under Rules trying first-time blinkers. He can go well, as can Douglas Longbottom, who arrives after winning three point-to-points in a row, but FAIRLY FAMOUS is preferred. He sports cheekpieces now after coming home a head second between the flags last month when caught late on, and he boasts winning course form to boot.

His last two runs have not gone to plan but FAIRLY FAMOUS is a very useful hunter chaser on his day and gets the vote.

Having landed the Foxhunters at Aintree, Gracchus De Balme must enter calculations in his current vein of form. However, the Manbolix gelding has yet to score beyond 2m5f under Rules and preference is for MUSIC DRIVE. Kelly Morgan's gelding arrives on the back of a very respectable fourth over C&D at the Festival and should be bang there with a repeat. The consistent Macklin is also noted.

After winning his first two points for Kelly Morgan, MUSIC DRIVE kept on well for fourth in the big C&D Festival hunter chase in March.

WALKIN OUT has been in good order under Rules and between the flags since returning to action in February and she makes grand appeal judged on the ratings. The eight-year-old looks ready for this step up in distance in this sphere and another bold bid is forecast. Latenightfumble was on an upward trajectory when last seen in 2023 and market support for her would be interesting. She is feared most, ahead of Cullin Hills.

Having performed well in two Ludlow hunter chases this year, WALKIN OUT recently extended her winning run in points to six.

JEFFERY'S CROSS accounted for a decent field when scoring over 3m at Ludlow recently and that form gives Dan Skelton's nine-year-old a big chance here, although he is unproven over this trip. Norton Hill won a couple of points in March and should not be underestimated in this company. Others to note are Myth Buster, Frontal Assault and Here Comes McCoy.

It might be worth chancing GO GO GERONIMO, who is well suited by a marathon trip on good ground. Law Of Gold is second choice.

JET PLANE filled second place in the Foxhunters' at Aintree a month ago and a reproduction of that level of form could see him go one better here. Highstakesplayer has struggled in valuable handicaps most recently but his best form would give him a big shout in a race of this nature. Take All edges out Frere d'Armes to be best of the rest.

Preference is for TAKE ALL (nap), who was creeping into contention before his mishap at the Festival and has won over 2m4f since.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses.
