ISOCRATE showed a likeable attitude when just failing to get up over 2m at Sandown on just his third start under Rules last month and, easing slightly in grade, this looks to be a very winnable opening for Jonjo O'Neill's gelding. Out of a whole host of unexposed potential improvers behind the selection, Another Fine Mess may give him the most to think about after shaping with promise in a higher grade at Newbury last time out, while Pirates' Tale is also shortlist material.

ISOCRATE took a marked step forward when runner-up at Sandown 22 days ago and, with more to come, he should be able to open his account in this lesser event. Another Fine Mess is open to improvement and looks the main threat, with Pirates' Tale also not fully dismissed.

The form pick is ISOCRATE, who nearly scored at Sandown three weeks ago. Pirates' Tale is second choice.

The progressive DONNACHA posted an excellent third in a competitive handicap at Cheltenham in December, before running out a game winner over 2m at Warwick on his penultimate start. After finishing down the field in the Betfair Hurdle last month, it may pay to be in a forgiving mood given Nigel Hawke's gelding races off his last winning mark and has much less on his plate. Spirits Bay is respected on his handicap debut after a cosy success over C&D last month, while Moorefields is the likely pace angle and cannot be overlooked.

Although SPIRITS BAY wasn't that impressive when landing short odds in a C&D novice a fortnight ago the form of his first 2 efforts over hurdles suggest an opening mark of 118 could underestimate him. Donnacha should find this easier than last month's Betfair Hurdle and is second choice ahead of Koenigsstern.

Topweight SPIRITS BAY is taken to build on his C&D novice win and follow up. Moorefields is second choice.

It is hard to look past the consistent CAST'S TASHA, who scored with more authority than the winning margin suggests over 2m3f at Ffos Las last month after jumping slightly right at her fences. Upped 6lb and now on a right-handed track, she should take some stopping. Bonza Boy has been nudged up just 1lb for finishing second over C&D in January and he commands attention, while better can be expected from Dylan's Double on his chasing debut.

CAST'S TASHA went through the race with plenty of zest and was ultimately value for extra when making a winning chase debut at Ffos Las 5 weeks ago and she could well be up to defying the handicapper with further progress distinctly possible. Bonza Boy, who finished a good second over C&D latest is a danger with a repeat, with My Rockstar another not out of things.

On the back of a very solid C&D effort, BONZA BOY (nap) looks poised to open his account. Moorland Rambler is second choice.

Although talented, Goshen failed to convince on his two previous attempts over fences and Gary Moore's charge may be worth taking on. ZAMBEZI FIX was far from disgraced when runner-up over hurdles at Chepstow last month and this switch to the larger obstacles may see the nine-year-old regaining the winning thread. December C&D scorer Mayhem Mya is feared most now pitched into handicap company, while an in-form Fine Casting isn't easily dismissed either.

MAYHEM MYA needs to shrug off a lesser effort at Huntingdon 6 weeks ago, but she comes here on a handy mark and with the return to shorter another likely plus, it would come as no surprise to see her make a bold bid. Fine Casting could be the danger.

Goshen's best hurdles form reads impressively in this context. FINE CASTING has solid claims, while Mayhem Mya is interesting.

Last week's ready Ludlow scorer SUPERVISOR is 5lb well-in under a 7lb penalty. The veteran should take all of the beating if coping with a quick turnaround and he rates as the one to beat. Bampton Star was far from disgraced on his handicap bow when runner-up to a progress rival over hurdles at Lingfield last month. Jeremy Scott's gelding has a stamp of a chaser and he isn't taken lightly on his fencing debut, while Unblinking also makes some appeal.

Given that SUPERVISOR's racecourse appearances have hitherto been few and far between, it remains to be seen how well he'll cope with this relatively quick turnaround following his wide-margin Ludlow success last week. That said, the 10-y-o looked on good terms with himself that day and he makes plenty of appeal from a handicapping standpoint given that he's 5 lb 'well-in' under a penalty. Chase-debutant Bampton Star, Unblinking and Wind Tor can scrap it out for minor honours.

Supervisor is at risk of bouncing but he holds major claims otherwise. Unexposed BAMPTON STAR is an interesting alternative.

My Granny Lily appeared to relish the drop to 2m and return to hurdles when scoring with something in hand at Ffos Las last month, and a 5lb rise in the ratings looks workable for Nigel Hawke's mare. However, ACTIVIST was a touch more impressive when completing a double at Taunton recently and the five-year-old may prove to be the better handicapped of the pair. The Kim Bailey yard seems to have turned a corner, so handicap debutant Killigarth could offer up some value.

ACTIVIST is taking off as a hurdler and looks capable of completing a quick-fire hat-trick. Killigarth showed more than previously at Uttoxeter last time and could up his game further now switched to a handicap, with Ffos Las scorer My Granny Lily also respected.

The hat-trick looks on the cards for ACTIVIST. His closest pursuers may be My Granny Lily and Killigarth.
