DREAMING DIAMOND finished over nine lengths clear of the third when filling the runner-up spot in this grade at Uttoxeter in July and she has since switched to the Max Young stable. The daughter of Shirocco is only 1lb higher and she looks the one to beat. One Last Glance finished third when last seen over the smaller obstacles at Plumpton in January and is a consistent performer to note, while Fresh Speculation rates best of the rest.

The vote goes to FRESH SPECULATION, who shaped as though the drop back to this trip would be in his favour when third at Chepstow on his final appearance of last season. He resumes on the same mark and, with just a handful of runs under his belt, this 6-y-o's best days are surely still ahead of him. One Last Glance is second choice ahead of potential improver Mount Washington, while Good Impression will also be a threat if he puts his best foot forward.

There's no standout contender. Henry Daly has had a recent winner and FRESH SPECULATION has run well in both his handicaps.

Innisfree Lass barely saw another rival when bolting up over hurdles at Southwell in April and she is one to take seriously on her chase debut. However, BELARGUS gets the vote. Nick Gifford's nine-year-old showed a lot more in first-time blinkers over an extended 2m7f at Huntingdon on his latest outing and can defy a 1lb rise. William Cody is another to keep an eye on after his second at Market Rasen in April.

While it's tempting to side with those with experience over fences, if WESTERNINTHEPARK and Innisfree Lass take well to the larger obstacles at the first time of asking they could emerge as the chief protagonists. Preference is for the former, who acquitted himself well in a valuable novices' handicap hurdle at Sandown on his final run of last season and he brings a good deal of potential to the table. Imac Wood has race-fitness on his side and is best of the rest.

Preference is for PETTICOAT LUCY (nap), who returned from a layoff with a pretty stylish win at Exeter a year ago and is on a good mark.

GREYVAL wasn't disgraced in fourth in a class 2 event at Market Rasen on her return to action last month and the handicapper has left her mark alone. Fergal O'Brien's mare might only need to repeat that level of form in order to regain the winning thread. Strong Belle ran too bad to be true when pulled up at Kelso last time and she is worth another chance on only her second handicap start. It's Easy is the pick of the remainder.

GREYVAL should be all the better for her recent Market Rasen fourth so gets the nod at the chief expense of Strong Belle who is weighted to go well if back on song after a lay-off. Ip Up is also in the mix returned to this sphere.

This may go to GREYVAL who held her own in a higher grade three weeks ago. Strong Belle is feared most.

An open contest and a chance is taken on GLYNN BRAE, who got off the mark at the first time of asking in a bumper at Leopardstown in March. Formerly trained by Stuart Crawford, the hurdles debutant looks an interesting recruit for Nigel Twiston-Davies and his horses couldn't be running much better at the moment. Whatsyourproblem bumped into two useful types when third in a Killarney bumper latest and he can be seen to better effect back over obstacles, while Lud'or makes most appeal of the remainder.

GLYNN BRAE overcame inexperience to run out a fairly cosy winner of a Leopardstown bumper on his debut back in March and makes plenty of appeal now going hurdling for a red-hot yard, so he earns the vote. Sonification appeals as the type to make up for lost time and looks sure to pose a big threat if taking up this engagement (also declared at Uttoxeter on Friday), with Lud'or and Whatsyourproblem others to consider.

There's substance to the form of GLYNN BRAE's bumper win at Leopardstown and he's narrowly preferred to Whatsyourproblem.

Having shaped as if a win over hurdles shouldn't be too far away on his last two starts, this represents a good opportunity for MIKIMOTO to get off the mark in this sphere. Martin Keighley's charge is entitled to have strengthened up since last sighted at Catterick in December last year and this extra yardage is a positive. Night Duty is feared most despite being absent since April last year, as he caught the eye when running on well over the extended 2m4f at Market Rasen, while Silver Thorn is also noted.

CARRIG KATE showed plenty in points and looked in need of further when fourth in a bumper at Southwell 6 months ago so, if the market speaks in her favour, she's a formidable player first time over hurdles. Mikimoto is an obvious danger and Night Duty can play a part.

Sean Bowen's mount MIKIMOTO was beaten by a useful rival in his second start over hurdles and he looks ready for this longer trip.

Any Biscuits showed a likeable attitude when scoring over an extended 2m2f at Exeter when last seen in April 2023, and he commands respect off a 6lb higher mark, despite the lengthy absence. SAILED AWAY edges preference. Stuart Edmunds' charge was last seen scoring with the minimum of fuss over an extended 2m3f at Huntingdon in the spring and a similar effort may well suffice upped 3lb. Ezmerellda is also noteworthy.

ANY BISCUITS has a long absence to overcome but hails from an in-form yard and was on a roll when last seen out so is worth siding with here. The consistent Ezmerellda could emerge as the chief threat to Harry Derham's hat-trick seeker ahead of Begin The Luck and Brownstone.

It's well worth chancing the fitness of ANY BISCUITS, who was in excellent form in spring 2023 when last seen.

SUPASUNRISE bounced back to form on his first start after wind surgery when finishing runner-up behind a subsequent winner on his seasonal reappearance over an extended 2m4f at Southwell earlier this month. That effort should have teed him up perfectly for this and, having only been nudged up 1lb, a bold bid looks likely. Aworkinprogress scored comfortably over hurdles at Fontwell in March and would be foolish to ignore stepping up in trip on his chasing bow. Boys Of Wexford is noted too.

SUPASUNRISE added to his stable's excellent form with a positive return when second at Southwell recently. That form has been boosted by the winner since, so he's fancied to go one better. Chasing debutants Aworkinprogress and River Voyage are both of interest, too.

A good few with chances but BOYS OF WEXFORD is a winner waiting to happen off his mark.
