The Procrastinator made the perfect start to life over hurdles at Hereford recently and is a real player once again, but the vote goes to TUNISYA. She was switched to Faye Bramley after winning at Pau on Christmas Eve and given that she still holds a Cheltenham entry at this stage, the daughter of Tunis could be useful. Rules newcomer Madeforlovingyou warrants a market check.
Prediction : 1st Tunisya 2nd The Procrastinator 3rd Madeforlovingyou

It's hard to conclude that DIAMOND DEALER didn't stay in the Borders National, but he'd been progressing nicely up until then and might bounce back to form following an 81-day break. Buckna didn't jump well at Newbury latest but is still learning and should not be underestimated, although recent Hereford faller Ski Lodge looks a bigger threat given his profile.
Prediction : 1st Diamond Dealer 2nd Ski Lodge 3rd Buckna

Voodoo Angel has been holding her form well in handicaps of late and can be expected to mount a serious challenge, as can Master Dunraven, who showed considerably more when third at Plumpton last month. However, TOBY TWO SCOOPS gets the vote. Micky Hammond's charge failed to see out an extended 2m3f here latest but looks to have been found a decent opportunity back at 2m.
Prediction : 1st Toby Two Scoops 2nd Voodoo Angel 3rd Master Dunraven

The consistent LARGY FORCE goes well for Sean Bowen and looks the percentage call after three solid displays for her current yard. Unlucky not to back up her Uttoxeter win when she was was edged out in a tight finish at Windsor latest, there is plenty to like about her attitude and 2lb nudge doesn't appear restrictive. Roger Rarebit has also been in good heart and must be feared on these terms. Onesoc's yard won this last year and he is an interesting each-way option.
Prediction : 1st Largy Force 2nd Roger Rarebit 3rd Onesoc

Sean Bowen and Olly Murphy are a rewarding partnership to follow and they can strike again with the unexposed WOODLAND PARK. On just his fourth start in a handicap, the son of Walk In The Park was only half a length away from rewarding favourite backers when second at Uttoxeter most recently and looks very capable of brushing off a 2lb rise. Skuna Bay, Arcadian Star and Blue Carpet form the shortlist of threat, in that order of preference.
Prediction : 1st Woodland Park 2nd Skuna Bay 3rd Arcadian Star

Devon Skies is very much the boom or bust type as she has either won or been pulled up in each of her last eight outings, so it might be wise to go with the more solid option in LAYSOFT. The four-year-old filly took a step up to Listed company and finished a well-beaten third at Doncaster last time, but an opening mark of 101 looks workable and she could take advantage. Just Call Me Lucy completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Laysoft 2nd Devon Skies 3rd Just Call Me Lucy

BO CRUZ relished the step up in distance when victorious by 10 lengths at Catterick last month and a 7lb rise might underestimate the manner of that success. With the likelihood of more to come, he looks the one to beat. Court At Slip hasn't finished outside the top three in each of his last four starts and should remain competitive, while Halfway House Lad is another to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Bo Cruz 2nd Court At Slip 3rd Halfway House Lad
