Billams Legacy, runner-up on each of her last seven starts, is surely up to winning a race of this nature. However, the nine-year-old might have to play second fiddle again, this time to O'GRADY'S HILL, who looks set to improve having made a pleasing timber bow at Market Rasen recently. Hola Hermosa showed a certain degree of promise in bumpers and she ought to relish the switch to hurdling.

A sharp 2m is probably what VALUE ADDED needs over hurdles and given her Flat form, she's very dangerous in receipt of weight from most. Billams Legacy arrives on the back of a septet of runner-up efforts and there's a fair chance she will continue the sequence, with O'Grady's Hill another to note.

After a run of seven consecutive seconds, this looks a good opportunity for BILLAMS LEGACY to get a much deserved hurdle win.

MOONSCAPE GIRL (third) was no match for an impressive winner at Worcester, but she finished within a neck of the runner-up and looks a big player on that evidence. That was her stable/hurdles bow, too, so improvement is likely and this is not the deepest of contests. Walk Of The Roses has shown more than enough recently to suggest she can play a leading role, while Lady Showtime and the returning Cornamona are also considered.

Runner-up on hurdles debut at Newton Abbot, WALK OF THE ROSES was possibly stretched by the longer trip when third at Bangor on her latest outing 19 days ago but she went with plenty of zest for a long way then and earns the vote with the return to this shorter trip a plus. Moonscape Girl promises to do better for Olly Murphy and is feared. Cornamona is another to keep an eye on.

The pick is WALK OF THE ROSES, who was placed on her first two hurdling starts and ought to cope with the soft ground.

HUIT REFLETS was able to record a breakthrough success at Hexham last month having posted a series of creditable efforts prior and, from just 1lb higher, this is an excellent opportunity for him to follow up. Clean Getaway has been in good form over the larger obstacles recently and is interesting returned to hurdles off a lower rating. Milajess could find more for the addition of first-time blinkers.

INIGO can't be one for maximum faith after falling on his last 2 starts but leaves the impression he has the ability to win off this mark if he can eliminate the mistakes. Phil Kirby's Clean Getaway will be a threat if able to translate recent chase improvement back to the smaller obstacles. Last month's C&D second Milajess and Hexham scorer Huit Reflets complete the shortlist.

Having been in fine fettle over fences, CLEAN GETAWAY (nap) is undeniably well treated on his return to the smaller obstacles.

Barrakhov gained a first success over the larger obstacles here last month when getting the better of JEAN GENIE over 3m by half a length. However, a 1lb swing in the favour of the latter, combined with an extra couple of furlongs, might see him reverse the placings. Miss Wachit wasn't beaten far on her first start after wind surgery when fourth at Market Rasen and she may step forward from that effort, especially with the application of cheekpieces for the first time.

An open-looking handicap chase in which it might pay to take a chance on INVICTUS ALLEN. He was out of form when last seen but returns on a lenient mark with his stable in red-hot form. Last-time-out winner Barrakhov is an obvious danger along with He'llstopatthetop.

It could pay to take a chance on the chasing prowess of KAPAMAZOV, who has been in reasonable form over hurdles since late May.

Dog Fox struck at Bangor in a comfortable manner and is expected to have more to offer. Chef De Troupe unseated here last week, but had been in fine fettle in two previous outings at this track and is capable of bouncing back. The vote, though, goes to I STILL HAVE FAITH, whose last run over hurdles saw him being outclassed by Burdett Road in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham in November. Open to improvement over timber, Ben Brookhouse's gelding could take advantage on his handicap debut in this sphere.

DOG FOX impressed with how he went through the race when scoring at Bangor last time so is fancied to make light of a 7 lb rise. I Still Have Faith returns to this sphere on a lenient mark so could emerge as the main danger, although Made For You and Jack The Savage also need factoring into this competitive handicap.

This is rather easier than the Grade 2 of I STILL HAVE FAITH's last hurdles start, and he can account for Bangor winner Dog Fox.

TRAPISTA arrives in search of a four-timer having got up late to score at Ludlow when turned out under a 7lb penalty. The daughter of Golden Horn is only 3lb higher on this occasion and there may well be more in the locker. Golfe Clair made a winning start to life over fences at Stratford and commands plenty of respect, with Envious Editor and Deerstalker completing the shortlist.

A few in with a squeak but it's hard to ignore the claims of TRAPISTA, who is thriving at present and can bring up the 4-timer returning from a short break. The main danger may emerge from Golfe Clair, who made a winning chasing debut at Stratford in May and is open to improvement in this sphere. Stable-switcher Envious Editor can edge out Deerstalker for minor honours.

A rise of just 2lb for May's Stratford win ought not anchor ENVIOUS EDITOR. Imperial Bede is preferred of the McManus pair on soft.

Support in the betting for the likes of Ten Ten Twenty and Only Fools looks assured given both won in this grade last time out. The same applies to REGAL AND ROYAL, but the Jennie Candlish-trained hat-trick seeker has far fewer miles on the clock and, raised just 4lb for the latest of his Bangor wins, he rates a more appealing option. Bella Ciao is another with claims.

STATE OF HONOR returned to form when runner-up here last month and remains on a workable mark. She gets the nod. Ten Ten Twenty and Regal And Royal are feared most.

Plenty have possibilities but top of the list is TEN TEN TWENTY, who escapes a penalty for his win at Market Rasen ten days ago.

RECORD ART sprung a bit of a surprise when scoring under Caoilin Quinn in a conditionals' race at Worcester and can register back-to-back successes with the rider now able to use his 3lb claim to help counter a 5lb higher mark. This is more competitive, with Bluebella of particular interest on the step back up in trip following a better effort at Stratford. Faded Fantasy can't be written off either, despite a modest Worcester display.

BUSHMILL BOY is still searching for a first win as a 10-y-o, but he hit the frame on several occasions for David Thompson and having made an interesting stable switch, he gets the nod to shake off a lesser effort and finally shed his maiden status. Bluebella took a step back in the right direction on her most recent outing and should play a leading role if building on that, with Jormungandr another to consider.

This may revolve around BUSHMILL BOY, who's had wind surgery since claimed by Olly Murphy. Malina Ocarina is feared most.
