Having supplemented his ready victory over fences at Wetherby with a facile triumph at Leicester on Sunday, it is hard to oppose EAST STREET reverting to timber. James Owen's gelding is off a 7lb lower mark than his latest success and is likely to taking all the beating if coping with another quick turnaround. It's Maisy is entitled to build on her reappearance at Bangor 36 days ago and she may give the selection most to think about, ahead of Topkapi Star.

In a change of headgear for his new yard, EAST STREET has quickly proved better than ever, defying a penalty with the minimum of fuss at Leicester 3 days ago, so he is the one to beat if taking up this engagement back over hurdles. The consistent Artic Mann is next on the list, ahead of Kiss My Face.

Even with today's change of discipline, it's hard to get away from the in-form and well-handicapped EAST STREET.

Having made a winning chase bow at Ayr on his seasonal debut last month, White Rhino likely has more to come in this discipline. The eight-year-old warrants respect off a 5lb higher mark, but the hat-trick seeking BENEFICIALLY YOURS is slightly more compelling. Donald McCain's charge scored on his sole outing between the flags in Ireland and a mark of 120 on his first attempt over the larger obstacles may prove lenient. Heros De Romay could fare best of the remainder.

This looks a strong race for the field size with WHITE RHINO the percentage call having made a seamless transition to fences at Ayr a month ago. Chase newcomers Beneficially Yours, President Scottie and Heros de Romay all have something to recommend them, though.

An interesting race in which WHITE RHINO (nap) is taken to make it 2-2 over fences. President Scottie looks his main danger.

Having filled the runner-up berth over hurdles at Stratford and Bangor in recent months, a breakthrough victory could be on the horizon for CARRIG KATE. The daughter of Westerner appears to have been found a weaker contest and she edges the vote over Grand Geste. The five-year-old almost caused a huge upset when second at Carlisle in October and he isn't taken lightly. Market support for point winner Jo Coko on his Rules debut would be interesting.

Market support behind one of the newcomers would look significant but CARRIG KATE would likely have opened her account but for a final-flight blunder at Bangor 3 weeks ago and shades the vote to come out on top. Ski Lodge looks a likely improver following an encouraging hurdles debut run at Ffos Las and is feared. Of the newcomers, Star of Diamonds and Jo Coko look particularly interesting.

Preference is for heavy-ground point winner CARRIG KATE, who was only just caught in a 2m7f novice at Bangor three weeks ago.

CIRCUIT BREAKER made a strong impression when bolting up on his hurdling debut at Kempton in October and he might have plenty more to offer. The four-year-old was a good performer on the Flat and should have no issues with this drop in trip. Crest Of Fortune was successful in good style over 2m4f at Ffos Las last month and should mount a bold bid with Harry Cobden booked, while Royal Infantry is another to consider.

ROYAL INFANTRY is already building up an excellent strike rate and, following a bloodless success at Chepstow on hurdling debut, he's the most appealing in a race where all six can be given some sort of chance. Crest of Fortune looks the main danger ahead of Circuit Breaker.

A competitive race can go to ROYAL INFANTRY who has won a point, two bumpers and a Chepstow maiden hurdle.

GOOD BOY BOBBY put in an underwhelming display when well beaten into third at Sandown last time, but he might be best judged on his effort when making the frame at Chepstow prior to that. Nigel Twiston-Davies' veteran competes off a 1lb lower mark and he looks the way to go. Cloudy Glen was pulled up in the Kim Muir at the Cheltenham Festival when last seen but he would be dangerous to dismiss, while Empire Steel is the pick of the remainder.

CLOUDY GLEN has been given a chance by the handicapper and returns with his stable in excellent form, so he gets the nod ahead of Good Boy Bobby, who boasts a solid record in these events. The Two Amigos returns from a lengthy absence on a good mark under optimum conditions, so he also needs considering.

As he has such a good record fresh the well-handicapped CLOUDY GLEN is taken to win his first race since the 2021 Ladbroke Trophy.

BLUE FIN showed a likeable attitude when scoring gamely over 2m1f at Carlisle on his penultimate start and he shaped as if he was still in good heart when showing up well for a long way before fading into fourth late on over the same C&D recently. Off an unchanged mark with cheekpieces enlisted for the first time, he gets the nod to return to winning ways. Guard Duty could get into contention on his handicap debut, provided he settles better. Jet Marshall returns from a long absence and warrants a market check.

HAZY GLEN appeals as the type to do better now tackling handicaps and is fancied to make a winning return with the step back up in trip promising to suit. Jet Marshall confirmed the promise of his qualifying runs when scoring on his handicap bow in February and has to be respected returning from an absence for the in-form Hobbs & White yard, with Blue Fin completing the shortlist.

Hazy Glen has run well in all of his three hurdle runs, but the vote goes to another handicap newcomer in GUARD DUTY.
