10/1
C&D winner. 5/2, below-par third of 5 in handicap chase at Ludlow (23.8f, good to soft) 10 months ago. Handily weighted though if fully tuned up for his return.

7/1
Made mistakes when only fifth of 7 in handicap chase at this C&D (good to firm) 62 days ago. Needs to jump better if he's to get off the mark in this sphere.

13/2
Scored at Bangor in June and posted a respectable fourth of 14 in handicap chase at this C&D (good) 38 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Ought to be in the shake-up.

Course winner who got back on track when fourth of 6 in handicap chase (20/1) at Market Rasen (23.9f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Can give another good account.

13/2
Back to his best when scoring over hurdles at Uttoxeter in June but he's a tricky customer and has twice failed to back it up. Reverts to chasing now but others are more appealing.

33/1
A three-time 3m chase winner last season who signed off with a good second of 4 in handicap chase at Southwell (24.3f, heavy) 150 days ago. Enters calculations on his return.

4/1
Hurdles winner for Richard Spencer last summer and he opened his account in this sphere for his current yard at Cartmel (25.5f) in June. Solid third of 11 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (23.9f, good to firm) 43 days ago so he's very much one to consider.

4/1
Maiden hurdler who has got his act together over fences, winning novice handicap at Southwell before good runner-up efforts there and at Bangor on his next 2 starts. Firmly in the picture again.

11/2
Course winner who arrives in good nick, third of 10 in handicap chase over C&D (good, 14/1) 11 days ago. This veteran can make his presence felt once more.

Forecasts

Roll With It (4/1), Happy Du Mesnil (4/1), Magic Dancer (11/2), Almazhar Garde (13/2), Edison Kent (13/2), Ajp Kingdom (7/1), Topofthecotswolds (10/1), Swapped (11/1), Ali Star Bert (33/1)

Verdict

This is wide open but HAPPY DU MESNIL is an improved model since switched to fences so can resume winning ways on the back of a good Bangor second. Nigel Twiston-Davies' Topofthecotswolds returns on a lenient mark so could emerge as the main threat, although a solid case can also be made for Almazhar Garde, Ali Star Bert and Roll With It.

  3. Almazhar Garde13/2
