10/3
Winning hurdler who made the frame on all of his 5 runs over fences last term. Had little go right at Cheltenham on his return so well worth another chance back down in class.

7/2
Fairly useful winning chaser in France who went close at Newbury on second run following a wind op in March. Good placed efforts both starts this season and should be in the mix again.

11/2
Dual hurdles winner last term and has already matched that tally over fences, bagging a pair of 23f Worcester handicaps in summer. Posted another good effort after 3 months off when a strong-travelling third at Aintree (25f, heavy) 34 days ago. Merits serious consideration eased 1 lb.

5/2
Often held back by his jumping/attitude but did little wrong when taking advantage of drop in the weights at Ascot on his return. Remains to be seen if he can back that up.

14/1
A three-time hunter chase winner, signing off last term with success at Musselburgh in March. Looked very rusty at Fontwell on return and better expected now.

Runner-up 5 times over fences last season (went close over 3m here) and not disgraced in a big field at Cheltenham on his return. However, ran a moody race at Wetherby since.

Forecasts

Hold That Taught (5/2), First Lord De Cuet (10/3), Yes Indeed (7/2), Tiger Orchid (11/2), Good Work (13/2), Salvatore (14/1), Dieu Vivant (40/1)

Verdict

Things didn't go to plan for FIRST LORD DE CUET on his return at Cheltenham last month but is worth another chance off a tempting mark back down in class. Tiger Orchid and Yes Indeed continue to hold their form well and rate the main threats.
