KEVIN'S PRIDE was impressive in winning a bumper by nine lengths on his racecourse bow at Kilbeggan last August and hasn't done much wrong in finishing second in all three subsequent starts over hurdles. Versatile regarding distance, there is enough to suggest the son of Mount Nelson is worth persevering with here. Point-to-point winner Saint Malinas has shown similar promise in his two starts under Rules and is another key player. Frisby and Scarlet Jet complete the shortlist.

Top-rated KEVIN'S PRIDE has a very solid record and gets the vote ahead of interesting Mary Stanford.

Ostend, Dare To Shout and Rattling Road have plenty going for them and each merits close inspection. However, BASHERS REFLECTION is dangerous to underestimate given the reliability he has shown in his three starts since undergoing wind surgery, with his most recent third in a class 2 chase at Kempton looking a particulary persuasive piece of form in the context of this race. The aforementioned Ostend is feared the most after a wide-magin success with a first-time tongue-tied added at Market Rasen.

With the tongue tie retained, OSTEND could well follow up his Market Rasen win. Rattling Road is second choice.

HORACES PEARL was unbeaten going into the Grade 1 Mersey Novices' Hurdle at Aintree and, given he stumbled two out, his fifth-placed finish in that race was commendable. This looks a shade easier and a resumption of winning ways is a distinct possibility, with the longer trip a potential source for improvement. Dedicated Hero is another key player after securing a Grade 2 success at Haydock most recently, while Minella Rescue and the unexposed Kiss Will are other notable contenders in a strong renewal.

Plenty of the runners have possibilities in this open and competitive race. HORACES PEARL is first choice ahead of Mister Meggit.

FUN FUN FUN represents Willie Mullins and will likely prove a warm order. She won a Grade 3 novice chase with any amount in hand when upped to 3m at Limerick a month ago, and will likely prove hard to stop given these favourable terms. Stable companion Paggane scored nicely at Clonmel last time, but the progressive El Elefante is a bigger threat representing last year's winning trainer. Coco Mademoiselle was still in contention when falling at Cheltenham last week, though has plenty to find in this company.

Useful FUN FUN FUN looks difficult to oppose on ratings. El Elefante is second choice.

PARISENCORE has been threatening a return to winning ways. Beaten only a neck in the Castleford Chase at Wetherby in December, he returns to action here and Nicky Richards' charge gets the vote. Netywell showed signs of a resurgence when runner-up at Kelso and looks on a workable mark, while Etalon drops in class and is no forlorn hope for the Skelton yard. Vocito represents last year's winning trainer and makes most appeal of the rest.

Off an attractive mark returned to this grade, ETALON (nap) is particularly interesting. Vocito is second pick.

JUMPING SUSIE faced a stiff assignment in Listed company at Cork last time, but she won a novice event at Kelso in fine style before that and John McConnell's inmate gets another chance at this lower level. Little Miss Dante looks fairly treated based on her latest fourth at Aintree, while Hay Meadow can make her presence felt now handicapping after landing a novices race at Ayr. Parisian Fashion is another to note.

A handful of these make some appeal with FEACH AMACH making most appeal after her wide-margin Sedgefield win.

HENRYSBROTHERJACK arrives seeking a third win of the season, with the six-year-old having improved for a step up in distance at Bangor last time. The manner of that performance suggested further progression is likely, despite a 6lb rise from the handicapper. Bollin Neil sprung a surprise at Catterick before a solid Hexham second and is expected to be in the mix along with Shuil Ceoil.

The pick is HENRYSBROTHERJACK, who made it 2-5 in handicaps when finishing well for a clearcut success over 2m7f at Bangor in February.

HAPPY INDEX has improved 23lb in the space of four runs, including victories here in September and at Market Rasen, and the daughter of Blue Bresil has been freshened up since filling the runner-up spot at Taunton in December. Maura Jeanne took a step back in the right direction at Newcastle and is of interest with cheekpieces reapplied. Follow Charlie and Nathan Wells complete the shortlist.

There are a few factors that may enable RASCAL to register a first handicap success. Happy Index is feared most.
