Point winner Sallyville Lady has yet to open her account over hurdles but she has posted a number of creditable efforts in defeat. Dan Skelton's mare should go close again, as might Biglesisback, who had been knocking at the door prior to being pulled up at Ayr. That being said, a chance can be taken on JOAN'S CHOICE, who would appear to have a big future in this sphere having won a bumper in comfortable fashion at Plumpton in December.
Prediction : 1st Joans Choice 2nd Sallyville Lady 3rd Biglesisback

GERYVILLE often reserves his best for this C&D and he remains competitively treated from 7lb higher than when winning here last time. William Cody went close at Southwell most recently and the consistent gelding is expected to run well once more along with the in-form No But I Will. Also keep in mind Rath Gaul Hill, who has the assistance of Sean Bowen for the first time.
Prediction : 1st Geryville 2nd William Cody 3rd No But I Will

Berry Edge bolted up over C&D last time out and he merits respect with that performance still fresh in the memory. An 8lb rise shouldn't be a barrier to further success, but the inclusion of ICE JET might be. The Phoenix Of Spain gelding enters handicaps from what looks a workable mark and it would come as no surprise were he to progress. Roland Garros can chase the pair home.
Prediction : 1st Ice Jet 2nd Berry Edge 3rd Roland Garros

This looks to be between the two recent winners, with KALHANDRION boasting the strongest form. Richard Hobson's charge made every yard to land a higher grade chase at Exeter last month and a 4lb rise doesn't look insurmountable in this company. The Grey Man will likely give the selection the most to think about arriving on the back of an easy win at Ffos Las, while Eaton Anne makes more appeal than Jack To Bat of the remaining pair.
Prediction : 1st Kalhandrion 2nd The Grey Man 3rd Eaton Anne

Libre De Choeur won a shade cosily at Ffos Las to open his account over hurdles. He has scope for further improvement, but HAWTHORN STREET is another unexposed type likely to make a bold bid. The son of Flemensfirth landed a maiden hurdle at Catterick last month and should have more to offer now handicapping with his yard in fine form of late. Tiger Orchid and Ladronne revert to hurdling off lower marks with the former marginally preferred.
Prediction : 1st Hawthorn Street 2nd Libre De Choeur 3rd Tiger Orchid

It could pay to stick with the promising MINELLA PREMIER in this. The point-to-point winner scored with plenty left in the tank at Fontwell on his Rules debut and Charlie Maggs' 3lb allowance further helps his cause. Peace Belle could improve on her recent third at Newcastle and may feature, while L'unique Allen and stablemate Mr Maximillian are worth noting given Olly Murphy's yard has won three of the last four renewals of this race.
Prediction : 1st Minella Premier 2nd Peace Belle 3rd Lunique Allen
