Kapal Layar sets the standard with an official rating of 106 and the son of Milan is expected to go close, but the vote goes to debutant TYRRHENUS. Dan Skelton's gelding is a half-brother to two hurdle winners, most notably West Balboa, and it's unlikely he'd need to be anything out of the ordinary to make a winning start. Five Quarters finished a well-held second on his hurdling bow last month, but the winner of that race could be useful.

PRAGNELL produced a promising first effort under Rules when fourth in a Wetherby maiden 3 weeks ago and, very much appealing as a likely improver with that under his belt, he could be the way to go for a yard in good form. Kapal Layar is steadily going the right way and is feared along with Star of Diamonds. Newcomer Tyrrhenus is another to note in the betting for Dan Skelton.

Another chance is given to STAR OF DIAMONDS, who flopped last time but can still progress from his promising hurdle debut.

KING ARISE can count himself unfortunate to have bumped into a couple of improvers on his last two starts, most recently at Uttoxeter last month. The son of Kingston Hill was raised 5lb for that latest effort but Luke Scott negates that rise with his claim and the eight-year-old is fancied to gain compensation. Royal Jewel won over 2m here recently and he won't mind the return to this trip while, Red Nika looks sure to appreciate a drop in distance.

ROYAL JEWEL pulled it out of the fire when getting off the mark over fences here last month, battling well to regain the upper hand close home after a mistake at the second-last looked as though it may prove costly. He pulled well clear of the rest with the runner-up that day and this 5 lb higher mark should be within reach. King Arise has done nothing at all wrong since switched to fences and he won't go down without a fight, while likely improver Barrabooka is best of the rest.

All six runners have something going for them but ROYAL JEWEL displayed a very willing attitude to win here last month and is the pick.

An open contest in which only a tentative vote goes to IKARAK, who has been successful on each of his last two starts over hurdles either side of a disappointing effort over fences. Olly Murphy's charge appears to have turned a corner this campaign and a subsequent 4lb rise for his latest Warwick triumph should be no barrier to further success. Guard The Moon continues to knock on the door and must be respected, along with Firestream, who made a winning return to action last month. Others to note include Icare Allen and last year's victor Classic Concorde.

A half-brother to a smart staying chaser, we may yet see the best of GUARD THE MOON over this trip, and he can go one better than when finishing runner-up to a smart handicapper from the Nicky Henderson stable last time. Lossiemouth has shown much promise since returning from a long absence, he heads the dangers ahead of Icare Allen who is still well-treated if on a going day, and Ikarak who has looked as good as ever over hurdles for the Olly Murphy team.

The most solid option appears to be IKARAK who is 2-2 over hurdles for this yard and will see the trip out well.

JAVERT ALLEN has looked a natural over fences thus far, and a further 5lb rise for a comfortable success over the reopposing Harper's Brook (second) at Newbury in December may not be enough to prevent him from landing the hat-trick. A consistent sort throughout this season, including when runer-up over C&D in December, Dr T J Eckleburg must enter calculations, along with Prince Quali.

JAVERT ALLEN has made an impressive start over fences this season, jumping well when making all over C&D/Newbury, and can maintain his unbeaten record in this sphere with more to come. Last year's winner Prince Quali continues to hold his form very well and is a solid alternative.

Preference is for PRINCE QUALI, who has remained in good form since winning this race a year ago and has conditions to suit today.

Now that BUCEPHALUS has regained the winning thread after a determined success at Newbury last month, the eight-year-old's confidence will be high and he can follow up off 7lb higher. A promising third on his most recent start at Warwick after having wind surgery in December, Sao Carlos can give him the most to think about. Veteran course specialist Zambezi Fix has dropped 5lb below his last winning mark and cannot be ruled out either.

There should be enough pace on to see hold-up performer and three-time course winner ZAMBEZI FIX run to better effect, and he might be able to capitalise on his falling handicap mark. The game, front-running Bucephalus arrives in great heart and can run well again despite a 7 lb hike for his latest success, while Sao Carlos should be more at home back on a galloping track.

Bernard Llewellyn's ZAMBEZI FIX (nap) is very well suited by Chepstow and, from a good mark, can win this race for the second time.

Stepping up from 2m to this trip was a key factor in C'EST DIFFERENT justifying favouritism in a conditional riders' race at Carlisle on Monday and, assuming the quick turnaround isn't an issue, the low-mileage five-year-old must hold every chance of following up off the same mark. Staff Sergeant Len also has untapped potential over this distance and is feared most on that basis. Arctic Saint and Bridget Mary are noted too.

C'EST DIFFERENT's margin of victory was only ¾-length at Carlisle on Monday but, in reality, he was value for a good deal more having been eased to a walk on the run-in. There should be better to come from this unexposed 5-y-o and, unpenalised for that, he is very difficult to oppose. The one who appeals most for forecast purposes is Arctic Saint, who has undergone a wind op since his latest start and this drop back in trip looks a good move. No No Espresso is third choice.

After easily winning a conditional jockeys' handicap on Monday, C'EST DIFFERENT has an excellent chance to complete a quick double.

JUST GOLDEN, who cost 120,000 euros as a three-year-old, made an encouraging start when second in a Hereford bumper in December and is fancied to go one place better with that experience to draw upon. Douglas Hyde and Pertemps have also shown some promise and are musts for betting checks given their equal scope for progression. Point-to-point winner Sage Green also merits close inspection.

JUST GOLDEN and Pertemps represent very successful yards and showed enough on their respective debut to think they can win a bumper. Marginal preference is for the former with a useful conditional on. Parliamo ticks a few boxes on paper so is a newcomer to note.

Dan Skelton's JUST GOLDEN did well to finish second on his debut at Hereford and can improve here.

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.
