FANFAN DU SEUIL beat a useful yardstick by five lengths when getting off the mark on these shores last time and Tom George's youngster, who won a conditions contest in France, could build on that to follow up here. Fret D'estruval makes his first start for Alan King following two comfortable triumphs for Guillaume Macaire in the latter part of the summer and the double green silks of Simon Munir and Issac Souede are synonymous with success in this sphere. Dan Skelton's Protektorat is another representing high-profile owners and he is interesting on his first UK outing.

Ok Corral is sure to be popular following his Grade 1 second over hurdles at this track in the Albert Bartlett last season. That is comfortably the best form of these over timber and a repeat on his chasing debut should see him hard to beat. Stablemate Jenkins should not be dismissed lightly, however, while Rebecca Curtis' DROVERS LANE has slowly developed into a useful operator and having got his chasing career back on track with a slick round of jumping to score by 11 lengths at Market Rasen last time, can advertise his fencing talents to a wider audience here. The Russian Doyen is also respected following a comfortable chase debut success at Exeter and he looks tailor-made for the larger obstacles.
OK CORRAL could have been found an easier opening over fences but he was comfortably the best of these over hurdles and appeals as the sort who'll prove at least as good in this sphere. He shades the vote in receipt of weight from exciting chase prospects The Russian Doyen and Drovers Lane.

BUN DORAN is hard to oppose if arriving in the same form as when a comfortable eight-length winner here at the November meeting. A 10lb shouldn't be too much of a burden considering the ease with which Tom George's seven-year-old scored last time and he was second in this contest last season. It was Kerry Lee who landed the spoils on that occasion with Gino Trail and she looks to repeat the dose with another of her stable veterans in Top Gamble, who will be suited by any ease in the ground. Easy Aintree winner Yorkist and Hell's Kitchen are others to consider, while Theinval is potentially plotting a path back to the Grand Annual in March but his course experience can't be completely ignored.
Has won two hurdle races and eight chases from 1m 7f to 2m 5f on ground varying from good to heavy. Beaten 2l by Baron Alco when second of 18 at 16-1 on his latest outing in a Grade 3 chase here over 2m 4f (good) last month.

Frodon looks to reclaim the crown he won in 2016 and overturn the two-length deficit he has with BetVictor Gold Cup winner Baron Alco, who looks to do the Cheltenham handicap double off a 6lb higher mark. Gary Moore's seven-year-old has a fine record at this venue and missed the carnage that ensued in behind when making all last time out. Guitar Pete finished third that day and landed the spoils in this contest last season so he must be respected here along with recent winners War Sound and Mr Medic, with the latter representing a team that landed big-race success at Aintree last weekend. However, preference is for RATHER BE, who was unfortunate to be brought down four out in Cheltenham's November feature and was in touch and travelling well at the time. He was prominent in the betting that day and is sure to be popular off the same handicap rating.
He has won two hurdle races and a NH flat race from 1m 4f to 2m 6f on good and soft ground. A winner at 9-2 in a hurdle race at Ascot over 2m 6f (good) on his latest outing last month, beating Stoney Mountain by a head. Has also won at Towcester this season.

DOUX PRETENDER appears to have got his act together having had a big reputation when coming over from France. He appeared to relish the step up in trip when beating Stoney Mountain at Ascot over an extended 2m5f last month and the extra couple of furlongs should play to his strengths. Aye Aye Charlie finally got his head in front at Kelso and he possesses the strongest form in the book, while he could improve over 3m. Danny Whizzbang, Supremely Lucky and Lisnagar Oscar all boast solid claims in their own right.
Has won seven hurdle races and a chase from 2m to 2m 4f on ground varying from good to soft. Beaten 1 1/2l by If The Cap Fits when second of 6 at 7-2 on his latest outing in a Grade 2 hurdle race in the Group 2 Coral Hurdle at Ascot over 2m 3f (good to soft) last month.

This could well be The New One's swansong with the three-time winner of this contest applied with a visor to see whether that can make a difference after his disappointing return at Ffos Las. Summerville Boy's jumping failed to cut the mustard behind the impressive Buveur D'air in the Fighting Fifth and he will need to improve in that department here. That said, rain would help his cause greatly along with WE HAVE A DREAM, who didn't appear to get home over 2m3f at Ascot last time and the drop back in trip looks in his favour. Vision Des Flos and Western Ryder both showed smart form as novice hurdlers and can put themselves in the mix, especially the latter who sports first-time cheekpieces.
She has won four hurdle races from 2m 3f to 2m 5f on good and soft ground. Pulled up when 10-1 here over 2m 5f (good) in a hurdle race won by First Assignment in October on her latest outing.

SENSULANO showed a good attitude on her return at Ascot when getting the better of Petticoat Tails by half a length and, despite there being a 1lb swing in the weights which favours the latter, the former may have further improvement to come in a race that her trainer has enjoyed success in before. Definitelyanoscar should be suited by a step up in trip on her handicap debut after winning at Warwick last time, while Ratoute Yutty caught the eye when fourth to Didtheyleaveuoutto at Ascot last month and could be in the mix with a tongue-tie applied.
