5/1
Highly tried as a hurdler and creditable eighth in the County Hurdle at the Festival when last seen in that sphere. Fit from a recent third on the AW and marginally the highest rated of these over the smaller obstacles.

Regressive on the Flat and has shown no ability in both runs over hurdles, so hard to be positive about now switching to fences.

9/2
Completed a five-timer over hurdles in the summer of 2018 on a sound surface but not seen for over a year so has presumably had his problems. Any rain that eases the ground could be a problem on this debut over fences.

10/3
Unbeaten in first eight starts, namely a Point-to-point, four bumpers and three hurdles. Not in the same form when last seen including a run on the Flat after a wind operation and now tried over fences for the first time.

18/1
Smooth win over hurdles on first run for this yard last autumn but didn't progress in two runs after that including when tongue-tie was tried at Leopardstown. Now sent over fences and needs to improve for the switch in codes.

7/4
Won over hurdles here 18 months ago but didn't quite progress over the smaller obstacles though did mix it in strong company. Now goes chasing after an absence of 15 months and very interesting contender who won't mind what the weather does.

16/1
Two wins over hurdles last year on good ground but out of form when last seen in handicaps in the spring. Has a stone to find with the best of these on hurdling form though the switch to chasing here may help.

9/1
Dual winner over hurdles and ran up to form when close third at Huntingdon in December. Clearly amiss when last seen the following month but makes chasing debut in a very hot looking contest.

Only piece of form over hurdles was over 3m but regressed badly since and hard to make a case for on this switch to the larger obstacles.

Forecasts

Seddon (7/4), Longhouse Sale (10/3), Some Day Soon (10/3), Leapaway (9/2), Beat The Judge (5/1), Diamond Gait (9/1), Cardigan Bay (16/1), Scardura (18/1), Essenaitch (150/1), Oborne Lady (250/1)

Verdict

A really strong novice chase for this time of the year with the entire field making debut over fences. The likes of Seddon and Some Day Soon appeal as the type who should do well in this sphere but narrow preference is for LONGHOUSE SALE who looked a smart prospect a year ago and still has time on his side.
