Scored over hurdles at Sandown in January. In good form on the Flat of late so he's much respected now going chasing.

Scored emphatically over fences at Plumpton (2m4f) in September but well below par both runs since, tried in cheekpieces when beating only one at Sandown last time. Needs to bounce back.

A fair ex-Irish hurdler but pulled up on his fencing debut at Clonmel (22.8f, good) in June on his final run for Paul Nolan. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence.

A fair maiden hurdler but a below-par fourth in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, soft) when last seen 9 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running now starting out over fences.

Consistent sort who opened her account for the season here (20.5f) four weeks ago. Can make her presence felt going chasing.

Opened his account over jumps in 17f handicap chase at Stratford (17f) in June. Posted a very good second of 8 over C&D 28 days ago. Leading claims off an unchanged mark.

Forecasts

Havaila (5/2), Theonlywayiswessex (11/4), Ede'iffs Rock (4/1), Bentley's Return (9/2), Belgarum (8/1), Givehimthehonour (18/1)

Verdict

THEONLYWAYISWESSEX can race off the same mark as when a very good recent C&D second so earns a confident vote here. Chasing newcomers Havaila and Ede'iffs Rock both bring potential and could emerge as the main dangers to Alan King's 6-y-o.

  1. Theonlywayiswessex11/4
  2. Havaila5/2
  3. Ede'iffs Rock4/1
