C&D scorer over hurdles for David Pipe. Concedes weight all round today but sights lowered significantly after clashing with the mighty Douvan on his two most recent runs.

9/4
Been racking up the appearances at Cheltenham this season since joining Colin Tizzard. Good enough for a race like this but fourth run in short space of time must be a concern.

14/1
Course and distance winner two years ago. Got rid of Charlie Deutsch very early in Saturday's reappearance at Haydock. Entitled to run his race if jumping well.

16/1
Never landed a blow when fancied in a five-runner race at this venue last month. Stronger contest today and plenty to prove for in-form partner Adrian Heskin.

11/1
Scored under today's 3lbs-claimer at Doncaster last month, despite idling all the way up the run-in. Nice weight today if he can be produced late.

Horse silk
Going Concern30
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-9| J: Paul Moloney| T: Evan Williams| OR:  127
12/1
Seemed set to improve on Aintree reappearance when mounting a challenge three-out here last month. Came to grief under Paul Maloney that day and his losing streak in this sphere extends to nine.

Horse silk
Colin's Brother25
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-3| J: Jamie Bargary(3)| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR:  121
9/2
Justified favouritism at Bangor last month to get off the mark over fences at the third time of asking having reverted back to hurdling in the spring. Plenty in hand last time and merits respect now.

Horse silk
Doitforthevillageh,t11
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-1| J: P J Brennan| T: P Henderson| OR:  119
4/1
Stayed on to win at Lingfield earlier this month over two-miles. Might not have the gear change needed for some of today's rivals.

Forecasts

Sizing Platinum (9/4), Doitforthevillage (4/1), Colin's Brother (9/2), Baltimore Rock (9/2), Festive Affair (11/1), Going Concern (12/1), Gardefort (14/1), Noche De Reyes (16/1)

Verdict

Baltimore Rock drops in class for Neil Mulholland after running at the big spring festivals last back end. He must concede weight all-round now however and could be vulnerable. The penny appeared to drop for COLIN'S BROTHER at Bangor and he can build on that win for Nigel Twiston-Davies. Sizing Platinum has been to the well plenty this winter but Festive Affair rates a danger on his latest Doncaster win if Killian Moore can hang on to him a little longer. Going Concern was seemingly running well when coming down here latest and could pick up minor money. 1. Colin's Brother 2. Festive Affair 3. Going Concern
