6/5
Easy winner of an Irish point and left previous Rules efforts behind when making a winning chasing debut at Kelso 16 days ago. More to come in this sphere and is clearly the one to beat.

Fair chaser who arrives on the back of a couple of poor efforts, back over hurdles at Worcester last time. Needs to return to form after a short break.

Fair hurdler who wasn't at the top of his game towards the end of last year. Switches to chasing after 7 months off and returns on a feasible mark.

Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle (7/1) at Bangor (23.2f, heavy) 13 days ago. Makes chase debut. Can make presence felt if she takes to the larger obstacles.

Seventh of 13 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at Wexford (16.7f, good to soft) 96 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Kinirons. One to monitor in the betting.

Has found just one too good over fences on several occasions and can be expected to strip fitter for her latest effort at Kelso, so not one to rule out.

Shaped well on the first of her 2 starts in bumpers but hasn't shown a great deal over hurdles. Switches to fences on return but others are more appealing.

Ended last season out of sorts over hurdles and will probably need this chasing debut in terms of both fitness and experience.

Forecasts

Similar Story (6/5), Jalisco Star (6/1), Bolintlea (13/2), Fiadh (7/1), Divas Doyen (11/1), Baby Chou (14/1), Maimie's Magic (14/1), Darsi's Darling (16/1)

Verdict

Ex-pointer SIMILAR STORY relished the switch to chasing when successful at Kelso last month and should improve for a while over fences, so he's preferred to chasing-debutants Maimie's Magic and Jalisco Star.
