GOLD EMERY hasn't won over this sort of trip since his point-to-point days, but that doesn't tell the whole story. The Donald McCain-trained 10-year-old had Fern Hill (fifth) almost 18 lengths behind him when they met at Wetherby at the start of last month and he can significantly better that third-placed finish on slightly better terms. C&D winner Ladronne and Tiger Orchid both concede plenty of weight to the selection, but are capable of being on the premises.
LADRONNE was outclassed in a much better race last time but he was thriving prior to that and remains on a workable mark. He's won off this rating in the past and he should get his desired decent pace to aim at here. Fern Hill completed a double in the autumn and shaped as if he was still in form last time when runner up. His stamina gave way late that day so he could be capable of better over this shorter distance and looks the chief threat. Tiger Orchid is tricky to win with but he's returned to form of late and is capable off this rating so also rates a danger.
Ran to form but was outclassed by the winner when second, beaten 7l, in the Introductory Hurdle at Haydock last time. Effective at 2m and handles heavy and good to soft ground; progressive in bumpers and over hurdles.
He has won a hurdle race, a NH flat race and a point-to-point from 2m to 3m on good to soft and heavy ground. Beaten 7l by Mydaddypaddy when second of 3 at 5-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Haydock over 2m (good to soft) in December last year.

RED OAK built on promising efforts in Irish bumpers by getting off the mark over hurdles at the second time of asking at Musselburgh. He is learning on the job and is the type to kick on, despite the mandatory 7lb penalty. Fellow penalised runners Kosac D'oudairies and Noonetellsmenothin also appeal strongly, although classy Flat recruit Alsakib could be a bigger danger if stepping forward from last month's second at Wetherby.
ALSAKIB was a Group 3 winner on the flat and shaped well on his first start in this discipline last time. The way he rallied suggested that this longer trip should suit and he could have a class edge on his rivals. Kosac D'Oudairies was only beaten by a classy rival who has franked the form at the top level last time and looks an obvious danger while Red Oak is also respected. That rival's debut effort has worked out very well and he was off the mark with the minimum of fuss last time.
Won cosily, improving when suited by a positive ride down in trip at a sharp track, benefitting from reappearance to land a handicap by 12l off a 6lb lower mark at Musselburgh last time; effective around 2m4f and acts on good to soft and good to firm; can follow up with easy lead likely.
He has won a hurdle race, two chases and a point-to-point from 2m to 3m on good to firm and good to soft ground. Won on his latest outing in a chase when 5-2fav at Musselburgh over 2m 4f (good to soft) earlier this month, beating Didntgotwenty by 12l. Has also won at Hexham this season.

HUIT REFLETS has reverted to chasing relatively late in life, but seems revitalised by the move and he romped home at Sedgefield on Boxing Day. A 6lb rise looks workable and he could be difficult to overhaul over this suitable longer trip. Fellow last-time-out winners Powerofjet and Marty Mcfly are other serious contenders and the latter is rated the biggest danger to the selection, with his stamina more proven.
MARTY MCFLY was a cosy winner last time and with an easy lead likely at this sharp track he is fancied to defy a 6lb rise on favourable drying ground. Powerofjet had plenty in the tank when a 2m winner last time and is open to further progress over fences over this longer trip. He looks the obvious danger along with Huit Reflets who beat an in form rival last time and should be thereabouts once again if his stamina holds up.
No obvious excuse when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Haydock last time; effective from 2m to 2m4f and prefers a sound surface; in modest form in both codes and has plenty to prove for his new yard.
He has won four hurdle races from 2m to 2m 6f on ground varying from good to yielding. Finished 16l behind Serious Challenge when sixth of 8 at 22-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Haydock over 2m (good) in December last year.

INFERNO SACREE was denied by the narrowest of margins at Taunton last month and the eight-year-old merits plenty of respect off just a 1lb higher mark. Kelijoe was successful on his most recent outing at Doncaster and is an obvious danger, although a 7lb rise in this much tougher contest demands improvement. Others to note are Bollin Neil and Jack Hoola.
KELIJOE was a ready winner last time and though the form has had knocks he is fancied to follow up off 7lb higher. He's unexposed over trips this far and is chosen to defeat veteran Inferno Sacree who has returned to form off a much reduced mark recently. That rival could get an easy lead and will be tough to peg back at this sharp track if that is the case. Course specialist Bollin Neil can't be ruled out either arriving in good form though he could probably do with some rain.
Scored by 2l off a 1lb lower mark here on his penultimate start. No obvious excuse when seventh, beaten 32l off 99 last time, now 1lb lower. Effective around 3m on a sound surface; form inconsistent but mark looks workable.
Successful in two chases at 3m 1f on good and good to soft ground. Well beaten at 7-2 behind Valence D'Aumont when seventh of 14 on his latest outing in a chase over this course and distance (good) in December last year.

WOLFBURG bolted up on just his second start over fences at Wetherby on Boxing Day. A 6lb rise for that success appears to be more than fair and Sandy Thomson's gelding gets the nod in an open event. Valence D'Aumont pipped Mersey Street over C&D last month and both are likely to go well once again. The shortlist is completed by Defence Witness and Bravethewaves.
WOLFBURG was an easy winner in first time headgear last time and should be able to follow up off 6lb higher in the same combination. The way he finished that day suggested that he would enjoy this longer trip and a repeat can see him defeat Mersey Street who left his previous chase form behind over C&D last time. That rival looks on a good mark based on his hurdle form and will be tough to catch if allowed his own way in front. The inconsistent Valence D'Aumont has a good record here and remains well treated on his old form despite a rise in the weights for a last time out win so is also respected.
Won by 2 1/4l off an 8lb lower mark at Musselburgh two starts ago; ran to form when third, beaten 9 1/4l off 95 last time and now 1lb higher; effective from 2m to 2m4f, handles soft and good ground; thriving since moving from Ireland.

Given that most of these have questions to answer, it is hard to oppose RUKAANA. The five-year-old won easily at Windsor on New Year's Day and even a 9lb rise may not be enough to stop him from following up in this company. Newport's two efforts last month suggest that he is likely to be the main threat, ahead of the unexposed Romancier.
RUKAANA finally gained a deserved victory over hurdles last time in decisive fashion and with the runner up boosting the form he looks capable of following up off 9lb higher. He will need the rain to stay away but if it does he can defeat veteran Scots Poet who was in good form over fences until his last start where he was outstayed over 2 1/2m. Back down to his optimum distance he is of interest in first time blinkers returning to hurdles off a potentially generous mark. Of those at bigger prices Vampire Slayer makes some minor appeal. He's a longstanding maiden in both codes but will appreciate this drop in trip and the handicapper is relenting.
Circus Maximus gelding; half-brother to Kings Gesture, who was poor over 17f; dam was very useful at 9f as a 2yo; probably best watched on debut.
Dam won three times over hurdles at 2m and 2m 1f and three times in all weather flat races between 7f and 1m 2f.

Those with racecourse experience do not inspire any confidence, so preference is for LUNA LUX. The daughter of Masked Marvel cost 50,000 euros and represents a yard that does well in bumpers. Similar comments apply to Broadway Dreamer and Nightflyer, who is related to winners on the Flat. Any market support for Bound For Glory or Teddie would have to be noted.
Very little form to go on and those who have seen the track haven't set the world alight so it may be best to stick to the newcomers here. BROADWAY DREAMER has a very attractive pedigree and makes most appeal. He is bred to be very useful on the flat but starts out in this easier discipline for a stable with a good record in bumpers. Mischief Millie is a half sister to a very useful hurdler and chaser and should be suited by the sound surface so is worth checking in the betting while Nightflyer is also of interest. His dam showed minor promise in Germany and his dual purpose yard can get them ready first time.
