My Kinda Ghaiy showed ability when second on his jumping bow at Taunton and is likely to have more to offer, but the one that appeals most is KLYCOT. The son of The Grey Gatsby progressed from his Exeter success to only find one too good in Grade 2 company at Chepstow last time and can take advantage dropping in grade. Warwick scorer Cloaks Of Gold is another to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Klycot 2nd My Kinda Ghaiy 3rd Cloaks Of Gold

Point-to-point winner STARMOUNT made a deep impression when scoring over C&D on his Rules debut prior to being out of his depth when only fourth in the Formby at Aintree on Boxing Day. Ben Pauling's charge is likely to appreciate his sights being lowered and can return to winning ways. Kaka's Cousin was successful on his introduction at Catterick last month and looks the main danger, while Hourman can fight it out for the places.
Prediction : 1st Starmount 2nd Kakas Cousin 3rd Hourman

Pleasington returned to form when filling the runner-up spot in this grade at Newbury last time and was kindly dropped 1lb, so he is one to take seriously. Doyouknowwhatimean hit the woodwork at Uttoxeter and is likely to remain competitive, but it may pay to side with GENOIS. The veteran went in by just under two lengths in this class over track and trip on Boxing Day and if in similar form, he could be the one to beat.
Prediction : 1st Genois 2nd Pleasington 3rd Doyouknowwhatimean

An open contest on paper in which the vote goes to SWEEPER SYSTEM. Having shown relatively little on his first two starts over hurdles, he improved when finishing third at Southwell and the rise in distance on handicap debut gives him every chance of taking another step in the right direction. Forest Blaze's recent efforts at Ayr must bring him into calculations, especially with a first-time visor applied. Others for the shortlist are Ionity, Eric Carmen and Toby Two Scoops.
Prediction : 1st Sweeper System 2nd Forest Blaze 3rd Ionity

SHE IS FOR ME BOYS was disappointing when sent off favourite at Cheltenham last month having weakened quickly. A subsequent wind operation suggests the issue has been sorted and a repeat of her Kempton victory on chase debut in November can see her back to winning ways. Celestial Fashion didn't appear to stay 3m at Ayr last time so the drop back in trip can see her in a better light. Taxus Baccata appeals most of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st She Is For Me Boys 2nd Celestial Fashion 3rd Taxus Baccata

Wee Alki pulled up at Hexham last time and the seven-year-old, who had won at the same venue the time before, is entitled to bounce back to form. However, LA HIGUERA is still learning his trade but he has still posted a trio of solid efforts in handicaps. Toby Lawes' gelding is 2lb well-in following a Uttoxeter third on New Year's Eve, as the winner of that contest has scored twice since and runs in the second division, and any further improvement could allow him to break the maiden tag. Bollin Matilda is also noted.
Prediction : 1st La Higuera 2nd Wee Alki 3rd Bollin Matilda

There has been no stopping BOLLIN THOU since winning at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve. Nick Scholfield's charge then bolted up at Hereford before having no issues with a drop in trip at Lingfield and, despite having to shoulder a double penalty, it might only be the quick turnaround that has the potential to halt his run. Musselburgh scorer You Did has few miles on the clock and remains capable of better, whilst Clondaw Royale didn't run too badly at Haydock latest and continues to edge down the handicap.
Prediction : 1st Bollin Thou 2nd You Did 3rd Clondaw Royale
