Each of these look set to excel over fences this season, but ICEO can come out on top today. Paul Nicholls' gelding romped home in a similar event on his chasing bow earlier this month and he can use that experience, along with race-fitness, to his advantage. Monviel receives 17lb from the selection and could be thereabouts granted a clean round of jumping, while JPR One is taken to chase them home in third.

ICEO bettered his useful hurdles form at the first attempt over fences when making a winning return in good style over C&D 3 weeks ago and can put that experience to good use up against interesting chasing debutants Jpr One and Monviel.

Jpr One and Monviel are interesting chasing newcomers but ICEO won in fine style over C&D recently and gets the nod.

COMPLETE UNKNOWN finished a creditable second in a Grade 1 at Aintree when last seen and he is likely to be a tough nut to crack on this return to action. Might I is a half-brother to two useful chasers, most notably Stattler, and looks an interesting recruit to fences. Ballygrifincottage reappears with something to prove, having been pulled up on his last two starts, and is perhaps up against in on these terms.

It's tough to get away from COMPLETE UNKNOWN, who found only Gerri Colombe too strong in the Grade 1 Mildmay Novices' Chase at Aintree 6 months ago and this looks a perfect opportunity for Paul Nicholls' 7-y-o to notch a third success over the larger obstacles. Might I is established as a smart hurdler and can chase home the selection on chase debut.

Complete Unknown has valuable chasing experience but the classy MIGHT I gets 10lb and could make a winning debut over fences.

Paul Nicholls has won two of the previous three renewals so Uttoxeter bumper winner Farnoge must be respected with that in mind. A chance, however, is taken on JASMIN DE GRUGY. The son of Masked Marvel showed little in the pointing sphere, but he's bred to relish this switch to hurdles and might not have to be anything out of the ordinary. Others to note include Flying Fortune and Spinnaker Blue.

FARNOGE won his sole outing in bumpers with fair bit in hand and, being a half-brother to smart hurdler Hawk High, he makes plenty of appeal now his attentions are turned to jumping. Flying Fortune was a shade underwhelming on her recent hurdling debut at Worcester but is clearly capable of better based on her bumper exploits, with newcomer Spinnaker Blue also worthy of respect.

This could well be a good opportunity for the Paul Nicholls-trained bumper winner FARNOGE to make it 2-2 under rules.

INVESTMENT MANAGER has been unlucky to hit the crossbar the last twice, including in a class 3 event over C&D earlier in the month, and he is only 2lb higher. The son of Nathaniel can be rewarded for his consistency by getting his head back in front. Back Yourself is an interesting contender on his first start for the David Pipe yard after being victorious on his handicap bow over the smaller obstacles and he warrants a market check on his chase debut. Crossing The Bar completes the shortlist.

BACK YOURSELF made a mockery of his opening mark when successful over hurdles at Ffos Las back in May and, now starting out for his new yard, it would come as no surprise were he capable of better still tackling larger obstacles for the first time. Investment Manager and Rock of Star are just a couple of others to consider.

The percentage call is INVESTMENT MANAGER, as he arrives fit and in form in a race for which his rivals are returning from breaks.

WEST TO THE BRIDGE was only beaten by a length and a half over an extended 2m7f at Uttoxeter earlier in the month and that match-fitness puts him in good shape ahead of this contest. The veteran could prove hard to beat off a 1lb higher rating. Top weight Itchy Feet will find this a much easier assignment than the warm handicaps he was last seen competing in at Cheltenham and Aintree, so he has to be considered on his return to action. Rose Of Arcadia makes her return to this sphere and is the best of the rest.

ITCHY FEET drops in class on this reappearance, and with his record fresh a positive one, he can successfully concede weight all round. West To The Bridge ran right up to form at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago and is feared most, though Rose of Arcadia has it in her to go well on return to action.

C&D winner WEST TO THE BRIDGE arrives with a good recent run under his belt and that tilts the verdict in his favour.

WONDERFUL EAGLE was useful on the Flat in Germany and arrives here having won both of his starts over hurdles at this venue in recent months. Those efforts suggest that a mark of 108 should be workable on his handicap bow and he gets the vote ahead of Hasty Parisian, who was second off this mark when last seen in June. Others to note are Individualiste and Gyenyame.

A few with potential but WONDERFUL EAGLE looks to have got in lightly for his handicap debut so is taken to make it 3-3 in this sphere. Paul Nicholls' Individualiste has a long absence to overcome but is still feared most, with Little Else and Kapitaliste also in the mix in an intriguing event.

First choice has to be WONDERFUL EAGLE- (nap), who brings very compelling credentials. Gyenyame is feared most.

WALKS LIKE THE MAN represents a yard with a very good record in bumpers and the winning point-to-pointer has to be respected having been purchased for 225,000 pounds following that success in February. Hikari Pompadour Aa merits a place on the shortlist given his connections, while Tough Approach and El Granjero are others who have to be of some interest.

HIKARI POMPADOUR AA represents a stable that enjoyed a good deal of success in this sphere last season and he makes plenty of appeal on pedigree, so he's worth a chance to make a winning start despite the presence of point-recruits Walks Like The Man and El Granjero.

The market needs watching for clues but the most appealing profile is that of WALKS LIKE THE MAN, a big-money buy after winning a point.
