Dream Risk carries a 7lb penalty as a result of her 2m2f Cartmel success last week but this looks tougher and the one to beat could be ONEMIX. Nicky Henderson's representative got off the mark over 2m at Uttoxeter last month and she looks sure to play a leading role on her handicap debut this evening. Flower Haven, Boogie Dancer, Topflight Wildbird and the irish raider, Dizzy Rascal, all have solid claims in a wide open contest.
Flower Haven hasn't stopped progressing for her current yard, and is taken to confirm recent C&D placings with Boogie Dancer and complete the 5-timer. Dream Risk and Overyou are of interest running in a handicap for the first time.

He has won a hurdle race, a NH flat race and two chases from 2m 1f to 2m 2f on ground varying from good to heavy. Third of 13 behind Warpath beaten 6l at 11-1 on his latest outing in a chase at Worcester over 2m 4f (good) last month.

MISTY DANCER is attractively handicapped on his best form and has shown enough encouraging signs of late to suggest a return to the winners' enclosure is on the cards. Good Company has been struggling of late but has possibilities if bouncing back to his best. Mighty Matters was far from disgraced in a hunters' chase at Cheltenham on his return from a long lay-off last month and he should not be overlooked but the biggest danger to the selection could be Safari Adventures who ran well over 2m5f at Worcester last time.
Misty Dancer's record hardly makes him the most reliable betting proposition, but he did shape well at Fontwell last week and will take a bit of stopping if in the same form, the drop back in trip looking ideal. Safari Adventures is the one likely to test him most.
Winner of three hurdle races and two chases from 2m 4f to 3m on good to firm and good ground. A winner at 8-1 in a chase at Perth over 3m (good to firm) on his latest outing last month, beating Bear Witness by 2 1/4l.

It could pay to side with Lisa Harrison's veteran, SOLWAY MINSTREL, who finished runner-up to Alderley Rover over this C&D last month and can go close this evening if reproducing that effort. The progressive Flying Doctor comes into this in terrific form and he should not be underestimated. Markington stays well and should be on the premises along with Very Cool who won over 3m at Exeter last month. Tony Martin's Meadows Thyne can also take a hand.
Flying Doctor and Downing Street are both ahead of the handicapper, particularly the former, who continues in irresistable form and can go in again. Markington usually makes hard work of it but has been knocking at the door of late and looks place material.
Successful in a hurdle race and a chase at 2m and 2m 1f on good to soft ground. Third of 12 behind King Troy beaten 3 1/2l at 16-1 on his latest outing in a chase at Stratford over 2m 5f (good to firm) last month.

QUITO DU TRESOR was a rather fortunate winner over this C&D last month but a 2lb rise in the handicap for that win looks fair and he is probably the safest option here. Tanks For That returned to form with a solid effort at Stratford last month and it would be no surprise to see him go close.while Kikos was in good heart prior to a mishap at Stratford last time and it would be foolish to leave him out of the equation.
The presence of fellow front-runner Kikos doesn't really help the cause of Quito du Tresor, but he has to be the choice given his progressive profile and previous course experience. Tanks For That could be the one to benefit if things don't go to plan.
He has won two hurdle races and two NH flat races from 2m to 2m 4f on good and good to soft ground. A winner at 7-4 in a hurdle race at Hexham over 2m 4f (good to soft) on his latest outing last month, beating Patriot by 12l.

SOLWAY SAM won with plenty in hand over 2m5f at Hexham last month and, although this is a bit tougher, he could still take all the beating. Niceonefrankie won well over 2m at Towcester last month and the step up to this trip should not be an issue so he should be capable of a big run again. Lamboro Lad won easily at Uttoxeter over 2m5f latest and is an obvious contender whilst Nodforms Violet should not be ignored.
Solway Sam has come good over timber of late, by no means fully extended to take care of a next-time-out winner when stepping up to 2½m at Hexham last month, and is fancied to complete the hat-trick, probably at the chief expense of the consistent Lamboro Lad.

HERON BAY shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up on his hurdling debut over this C&D last month and he is entitled to come on plenty for that experience so could well go one better this evening. Elcanos was not disgraced behind Nedzer's Return at Perth last month and he could be in the shake-up today with McCoy on board. Russian George has some decent flat form and is worthy of consideration on his hurdling debut.
Heron Bay possesses the most ability of these and looks the one to be with following an encouraging start over hurdles here last month. Phoenix Flight and Elcanos appeal as his main dangers, particularly if the latter attracts support in the betting.
