REDBRIDGE RAMBLER ran too badly to be true when pulled up at Warwick last time and might be better judged on his previous efforts this year. This drop in trip looks a good move and with Sean Bowen remaining in the plate, he could be the one to beat. Rajjamataz lurks on a workable mark and makes his first start after undergoing a wind operation, so he is one to watch out for. Imperial Measure is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Redbridge Rambler 2nd Rajjamataz 3rd Imperial Measure

I'm A Starman is unbeaten in his last four outings over the smaller obstacles and provided the 12-year-old transfers that form to fences, he holds an obvious chance. No No Maestro finished second at Fontwell last month and is noted, but RIVER OF JOY looks the way to go. The eight-year-old went in by eight lengths at Hexham in May and considering the manner of that triumph, she can defy her 7lb rise.
Prediction : 1st River Of Joy 2nd Im A Starman 3rd No No Maestro

STUMPS OR SLIPS justified favouritism to remain unbeaten in three outings since switching to the Olly Murphy stable and is an interesting contender back over the smaller obstacles. In his current form, he looks tough to oppose. Betty's Tiara sports first-time cheekpieces after her runner-up effort at Southwell and she has to be considered. Shadows In The Sky completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Stumps Or Slips 2nd Bettys Tiara 3rd Shadows In The Sky

HANDLETHEKETTLE struggled over fences at Ffos Las in May but bounced straight back to form when reverting to timber over C&D last month. Jamie Snowden's gelding made all that day and they couldn't get near him. Given he did the same three starts ago when comfortably landing a novice hurdle at Taunton, there is good reason to believe this dual course winner hasn't reached his ceiling of ability yet. Get The Value gets plenty of weight and he heads the list of dangers from My Chiquita.
Prediction : 1st Handlethekettle 2nd Get The Value 3rd My Chiquita

FINE BY ME came good last summer when winning comfortably at Stratford and this could be the time to catch him on the back of a creditable Warwick second. Sam Twiston-Davies takes over in the plate and all looks set for a big run. Of the others, keep a close eye on C&D winner Stripe Of Honour and Shibuya Song.
Prediction : 1st Fine By Me 2nd Stripe Of Honour 3rd Shibuya Song

JANWORTH was in command when falling at the final flight at Southwell but wasted no time in making amends over C&D three days later. Jamie Snowden's mare must compete from an 8lb higher mark now, but she remains open to further progress and is expected to go in again. Handicap debutant The Great Escape makes obvious appeal, as does Pacific, who finished third under Freddie Keighley at Huntingdon in May.
Prediction : 1st Janworth 2nd The Great Escape 3rd Pacific

AUNTIE MAGGIE has been in the form of her life recently, winning three of her last four starts with the latest of those coming at Uttoxeter last month. Alastair Ralph's mare will need to progress further following a 6lb rise but she is clearly thriving at present and may well be up to it. Aquifolia finished a promising second over C&D recently and is interesting now switched to handicaps, while Formel Park heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Auntie Maggie 2nd Aquifolia 3rd Formel Park
