Better Getalong59
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-9| J: R D Day(5)| T: N G Richards
1/4
Just run in two bumpers so far nearly a year apart and shown useful form in both. Won at Ayr in December from a subsequent winner in Sam's Adventure and looked a useful sort on that occasion.

Horse silk
Some Reign41
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-9| J: G Lee| T: R Dobbin
3/1
Well found in the market when winning on his debut at Wetherby by five lengths. Travelled well on that occasion and beat a next time out winner, so the form looks strong and there's a fair chance that he still has some improvement in him.

Horse silk
Lastin' Memories16
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-2| J: Jan Faltejsek| T: Miss S E Forster
66/1
Brother to four winners including the fairly useful hurdler Octagon. Yard have never had a bumper winner on debut though and are 0/5 with their debutantes at Kelso.
4
Horse silk
Olivia Joan651
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-9| J: Craig Nichol| T: A C Whillans
80/1
Just the one start to her name so far in a Carlisle bumper in 2015. Showed some ability there but likely to need this and a greater test of stamina.
5
Horse silk
The Delray Munky
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-9| J: S A Shortall(3)| T: I Jardine
25/1
First foal whose dam won over hurdles and fences. Yard have only had one debut bumper winner but that did come here.
6
Horse silk
Western Lass26
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-0| J: Sean Quinlan| T: K Scott
50/1
Cost £10,000 as a three-year-old and a half-sister to the bumper winner and hurdle winner Princess Roania. Yard are yet to have a bumper winner this season and she faces a tough debut here.

Forecasts

Better Getalong (1/4), Some Reign (3/1), The Delray Munky (25/1), Western Lass (50/1), Lastin' Memories (66/1), Olivia Joan (80/1)

Verdict

The penalised runners have much the best form here and it’s hard to see the other quartet getting much of a look in against BETTER GETALONG and Some Reign. The former just gets the verdict on account of his Ayr win which, given the exploits of the second, looks very solid form. Of the others the Iain Jardine runner The Delray Munkay looks to have the best chance of filling out the places. 1. Better Getalong 2. Some Reign 3. The Delray Munky
