ASK CATKIN appreciated the switch to hurdles at Huntingdon last month when scoring by some nine lengths and connections have found her another winnable opening. She is difficult to get away from while that dominant display remains fresh in the memory. Oborne Lady performed well for the silver medal at Cartmel latest and joins Silent Steps on the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Ask Catkin 2nd Oborne Lady 3rd Silent Steps

CORRI LINDO disappointed favourite backers at Bangor latest but his effort wasn't devoid of promise and, given he finished a short-head second prior to that on stable debut for Henry Oliver, he wouldn't be winning out of turn. Similar sentiments apply to Gambling Gamut, who has been running well in defeat over hurdles and is interesting going over fences for the first time, while Potters Story is unexposed over the larger obstacles and is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Corri Lindo 2nd Gambling Gamut 3rd Potters Story

Boltissime is an intriguing recruit for Dr Richard Newland from France and could make an impact on debut under Sam Twiston-Davies, while Iconic Hero could take a step forward after a debut under Rules that wasn't devoid of promise for Dan Skelton four weeks ago. Preference, though, is for SWAFFHAM BULBECK, who scored at Fakenham before finding just one too good at Market Rasen a month later. Richard Johnson rides him for just the second time instead of a 10lb claimer, and that could prove crucial.
Prediction : 1st Swaffham Bulbeck 2nd Boltissime 3rd Iconic Hero

ALF 'N' DOR needs to be produced at the right time, as shown in his success at Ffos Las 53 days ago, and could have more to offer off just 4lb higher following a break. The eight-year-old might just have the measure of Lord County, a course winner who returned to form when second at Bangor-on-Dee last month, and Very First Time, who is of obvious interest on stable debut for the Dan Skelton operation.
Prediction : 1st Alf n Dor 2nd Lord County 3rd Very First Time

BOLD RECORD is entitled to have learnt plenty from his first career outing, when third at Worcester last month having jumped indifferently, and he is expected to be more streetwise with that experience under his belt. Topofthecotswolds sets the form standard but could be vulnerable to an improving type, while Teddy's Acre and Masteen both appeal as having more to offer on what they have achieved to date.
Prediction : 1st Bold Record 2nd Topofthecotswolds 3rd Teddys Acre

MOOR FREEDOM is yet to fulfil the promise of her racecourse debut, when finishing second to Emitom at Warwick, but she showed some encouragement when fifth at Worcester on her latest start and warrants respect now facing handicap company for the first time. Do You Know What can take a step forward from her stable debut for Dan Skelton over C&D with brother Harry taking over in the saddle, while Indian Reel's form in the spring entitles him to be in the mix.
Prediction : 1st Moor Freedom 2nd Do You Know What 3rd Indian Reel

BALLADAME showed a fair amount of promise when runner-up on her racecourse bow at Ffos Las and Tom George's filly wouldn't need to improve much from that performance to get her head in front. Malina Ocarina finished third on her debut at Newton Abbot and comes from a decent National Hunt family, which contains Champion Chase hero Klairon Davis, while point-to-point winner Bannixtown Glory represents a stable in good heart currently and has to enter calculations on her debut under Rules.
Prediction : 1st Balladame 2nd Malina Ocarina 3rd Bannixtown Glory
