An interesting race where handicap debutants Val Mome and Tokaramore could both go well, but it is a fellow newcomer to this sphere CHANCEANOTHERFIVE who is suggested. Keith Dalgleish's gelding has been given a mark that his bumper form suggests could be lenient and first-time cheekpieces could help him break his hurdles duck. St George's Oval, Chookie Royale, An Fear Cluin and Icefall are others of interest.
