Having acquitted herself with credit in two competitive bumpers, LAGERTHA may prove the answer in this tricky opener. Katy Price's filly has set a good foundation to build on now tackling timber for the first time in public and she edges the verdict over fellow hurdles debutant La Higuera. The five-year-old boasts a point-to-point background and posted a respectable fourth on his Rules debut in an Exeter bumper in April. French Symphony and Just Lucky Sivola are also noted.

FRENCH SYMPHONY showed plenty in bumpers last season and, with the longer trip bound to suit now going hurdling, he makes plenty of appeal, especially with his yard very much amongst the winners. Lagertha is another who shaped with encouragement in bumpers and shouldn't be taken lightly, with successful-pointer Tommy The Tank completing the shortlist.

Placed behind a subsequent Listed winner in a Doncaster bumper in January, FRENCH SYMPHONY is the most appealing option here.

Easter Icon impressed with how he travelled when making a winning handicap bow in this sphere over C&D in August. Although a 7lb higher mark looks more than workable, testing ground conditions could prove the five-year-old's undoing and preference is for GOLDEN AMBITION. The Ben Pauling-trained gelding found only an unexposed rival too strong over 2m3f here earlier this month and a 6lb rise in the ratings doesn't look insurmountable. Stage Show is also of interest stepping up in distance.

Despite failing to land heavy support here 19 days ago, GOLDEN AMBITION didn't do a lot wrong in pulling a long way clear with a handicap debutant and he can go one place better this time. Easter Icon is second choice, with What's My Line expected to step up on his reappearance run when well behind the selection.

Ben Pauling's GOLDEN AMBITION found one too good when heavily backed here this month but could still be well treated after a 6lb rise.

Celtic Ned is making his seasonal/chase debut off what looks an attractive mark and it will be interesting to see how the six-year-old fares in the market. Mutual Respect and Hatos are others who could play a part in the finish, but KOENIGSSTERN gets the nod on the basis that he's potentially well treated on his chase bow and could really improve this season for tackling a fence.

MUTUAL RESPECT needed some luck when winning off this mark at Worcester last month but he finished clear with a subsequent winner that day and this is a weaker race. The likeable Call Off The Dogs must be respected, while Koenigsstern is a potential improver now chasing.

After running well to make the frame three consecutive times in the spring, WILL STING may exploit a favourable mark.

Oscars Moonshine is worth noting on his first start for a new yard having been formerly trained by Paul Nicholls. The latter is represented by INCA DE LAFAYETTE, who will relish the step back up in distance and has solid claims on his victory on soft going at Taunton in January. Whatsupwithyou is another to consider based on his second at Cheltenham in April, while Colours On Canvas landed a double on testing ground at Plumpton last season and will have benefitted from a recent outing on the level.

The betting should prove useful with a number making their seasonal return but INCA DE LAFAYETTE made a successful reappearance 12 months ago and, having ended the campaign in good order, he's narrowly selected to continue the good work. Junkanoo appeals as being on a handy mark and is respected provided the trip doesn't stretch him. Oscars Moonshine completes the shortlist.

Nudged up only 1lb for his commendable second in a big-field Class 2 at Cheltenham in April, WHATUPSWITHYOU gets the nod.

Following a C&D double, INSTANT GAMBLER remains unbeaten over fences having completed a hat-trick with his latest success at Hexham. He won with plenty left in the tank on that occasion and a 7lb rise may not be enough to anchor Alexandra Dunn's progressive chaser. Langley Hundred has a shout off his current rating, though the soft ground is a worry for him, and Caeruleum makes more appeal having ended last season with a creditable second at Bangor.

INSTANT GAMBLER made it 3-3 over the larger obstacles at Hexham earlier this month and with further improvement on the cards, Alexandra Dunn's 8-y-o is fancied to remain unbeaten in this sphere at the expense of old-rival Eurkash, who shaped quite well over timber when fourth at Stratford recently and is of more interest returned to fences. Samourai One has Harry Cobden on board for the first time and he can edge out Caeruleum for third spot.

Instant Gambler has been a revelation over fences but EURKASH was second to him here last month and is 15lb better off now.

LADY SALVADOR will be sharper for a recent comeback run over these obstacles. Still in contention approaching the last hurdle, she faded in the closing stages to finish third over further that day, but looks capable of winning over timber off her current mark and gets another chance now dropped back in trip. Tuscan Rose can feature again having been raised only 4lb for winning over 3m at Taunton in March, while the unexposed Miss Popalong placed over C&D in May and could have a say in the outcome on only her second start in a handicap.

After making a promising start to her career, DRUMLEE SPUD finished well held in a Grade 2 contest at Newbury on handicap debut when last seen in March, but back on softer ground she can take advantage of this drop in grade. Tuscan Rose showed improved form in handicaps last season and is feared most, ahead of Miss Popalong.

This is a huge drop in grade for DRUMLEE SPUD (nap), who could be far too good for this field.
