STADIUM TALK had plenty in hand when romping home in a 3m mares' maiden hurdle at Wexford at the start of this month, and readily appeals as the most attractive proposition on the back of that performance. Fellow Irish raider Gaye Winnie also landed a similar contest on her latest start and is feared most, despite stepping up in trip. Condesa and El Elefante both hold course wins, although the latter has something to prove as she tries hurdles for the first time, while the former has a stamina query now stepping up in distance.
Prediction : 1st Stadium Talk 2nd Gaye Winnie 3rd Condesa

The consistent BEAUTY TO BEHOLD was a good second over C&D 16 days ago and she could provide a bit of value in her bid to go one place better. The six-year-old mare has shown a real liking for this course and, having improved since joining her current yard, she is a serious player off just 4lb higher. Uncle Bert was highly tried in the Mersey Novices' Hurdle at Aintree last time and has to be feared at this level after a break, while Irish raider Andys Flame is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Beauty To Behold 2nd Uncle Bert 3rd Andys Flame

SPUTNIK was unlucky to encounter an upwardly mobile contender at Kelso when last seen and, having gone well fresh in the past, he could be difficult to overhaul if he picks up where he left off in May. A Place Apart has a couple of more recent outings under his belt and is another rated highly in this company, while Attitash has snippets of form that suggest he can at least make the travel over from Ireland worthwhile.
Prediction : 1st Sputnik 2nd A Place Apart 3rd Attitash

Park Annonciade recorded a first success in a novice hurdle over C&D at the start of August and should prove competitive now entering handicaps off what looks a workable mark. However, it may be worth chancing the returning THEREISNODOUBT, who has posted several creditable efforts in defeat in stronger contests earlier this year. Representing the Gordon Elliott yard, Nottodaybobo is sure to prove popular and also merits consideration.
Prediction : 1st Thereisnodoubt 2nd Park Annonciade 3rd Nottodaybobo

WASDELL DUNDALK has really got his act together over fences of late, as seen when completing a double over C&D earlier this month. The eight-year-old has displayed enough authority in those triumphs to suggest that he can complete a hat-trick at this higher level. Born Famous is sure to have her supporters after notching a sixth successive victory over hurdles here last month, while Lucinda Russell's Haute Estime has scope off her current mark.
Prediction : 1st Wasdell Dundalk 2nd Born Famous 3rd Haute Estime

Prince Nino appears to relish this track and trip having gained a second success at this venue earlier this month. A 5lb rise is unlikely to prevent Lizzie Quinlan's gelding from being in the mix once again. Preference, however, is for CONFELICITY, who was only worn down in the latter stages over 3m here latest. A drop in distance to 2m4f may prove just the tonic for the five-year-old, while Ultra Violet is another expected to have a say.
Prediction : 1st Confelicity 2nd Prince Nino 3rd Ultra Violet
