Hill Station was able to build on a couple of promising efforts to score at Stratford last time out and must be respected from 5lb higher, but it is AQUIFOLIA that shades preference. Neil Mulholland's charge has few miles on the clock over timber and was a creditable second over C&D last month. A 3lb rise doesn't look harsh considering there should be more to come, with compensation a real possibility today. Graham looks well handicapped in comparison to his Flat rating and can also enter calculations.
HILL STATION appreciated both the sharper track and drop back in trip when scoring at Stratford last time, and he remains in good order. However, stepping back up beyond 2m may expose him against stronger stayers. Aquifolia shaped with promise when a close second here on her latest start, and with further improvement likely if ridden more positively, she rates a danger. Jorebel had every chance when third at Uttoxeter last time but has shown enough overall to suggest he could be a touch of value in a race of this nature.
Below form when stepped up in grade, comfortably held in a handicap chase at Stratford last time. Had been in good form beforehand but looks on a stiff mark.
He has won two hurdle races and a chase from 2m 4f to 2m 5f on good ground. Well beaten at 7-1 behind Magistrato when sixth of 7 on his latest outing in a chase at Stratford over 2m 3f (good to firm) last month.

Following a frustrating run of seconds, LERMOOS LEGEND was able to break the sequence in emphatic fashion at Market Rasen before going in again over C&D latest. A further 6lb rise in the handicap could underestimate Mickey Bowen's 10-year-old, and he is taken to complete the hat-trick. Somespring Special was in contention when falling two from home at Worcester in June so she is of interest, as is the class dropping Jaramillo.
LERMOOS LEGEND remains in fine fettle, scoring readily last time and still well treated despite a 5lb rise. Effective from 2m to 2½m and handling both good and good-to-soft ground, he thrives under the care of a trainer in form and sets the standard. Somespring Special is returning from a break after falling over 2m4f at Worcester, but remains very much in the mix if taking to the fences cleanly this time. Midnight Jewel has been in good order of late, scoring by 3l at Stratford and shaping well when third on his latest outing. He prefers to dominate the race from the front, but a stiff mark may make it harder for him to repeat that winning effort here.
Ran to form when 1/2l third in a 2m handicap at Ffos Las last time. Inconsistent maiden but effective between 12f and 16f on the flat. Should stay the trip on hurdle debut.

It looks best to side with GALACTIQUE, who shaped with considerable promise when second over track and trip on his hurdles bow last month. The son of Galiway arguably sets the standard for all that Lady Wilhelmina boasts an official rating of 112, who makes her British debut having run three times when trained in France. Racing in the famous double green, Bouboule warrants a market check.
GALACTIQUE made a few mistakes on debut over hurdles but still shaped with plenty of promise when second over this C&D. With the yard having a strong record with ex-Flat horses in this sphere, she should build on that experience and looks the one to beat. Bouboule brings consistency from the Flat, having finished second over 12f at Wolverhampton last time, and his stamina and racing pattern make him an interesting recruit to hurdles. Exactly Right was outpaced on debut but showed glimpses of promise, and with a 1m Flat win on the all-weather to her name, he is likely to progress as he gains more experience over timber.
Ran to form when tiring late on testing ground and finishing down the field in a 2m maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse most recently; wears a tongue-tie for the first time; effective at 2m; showed promise in Irish maidens during spring.

Fascinating Lips returns to hurdles for the first time since winning over C&D in September 2022, but he has been busy on the Flat since and won't be lacking race fitness. Tsavo Park travels over from Ireland for his handicap debut and it will be interesting to see if he is supported in the market, but CAWTHORNE BANKER could be the one. Two of his three wins over hurdles have been over C&D, including last month, and an added 8lb may not stop him.
FASCINATING LIPS has returned to form on the Flat and brings proven stamina over 2m from his 2022 victory, making him an interesting contender now stepping into hurdles. His fourth at Windsor over 11f showed he retains ability, and he may have more to offer over timber as he gains experience. Cawthorne Banker built on a recent revival when scoring over this course by 2 1/4l last time and, despite a 2lb rise, remains well treated on past form. He prefers a sound surface and is likely to be competitive again if conditions suit. Fourtowns was keen and needed the run when well held at Warwick and returns from a break. He will need to improve markedly to feature, though has the scope to do so.
Improved again when stepped up in trip, landing a handicap by 3 1/2l off 102 here last time; veteran who needs a sound surface and is in good form in both codes.
Winner of four hurdle races and two chases from 2m 1f to 3m 2f on good and good to soft ground. A winner at 16-5 in a chase over this course and distance (good to soft) on his latest outing last month, beating To Be Sure by 3 1/2l. Has also won at Worcester this season.

Went clear with ease; up 6lb but well treated on old form. Improved on recent efforts to score by 7l off 98 at Newton Abbot penultimate start; a sound surface suits over staying trips and he is thriving at present.
He has won four hurdle races from 2m 4f to 3m 2f on good ground. Beaten 1 1/4l by Hostile Hotelier when second of 6 at 17-2 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Newton Abbot over 3m 2f (good to soft) earlier this month.

A winner of a chase at 3m 2f on soft ground. Well beaten at 14-1 behind Grillon De Monty when fifth of 9 on his latest outing in a chase at Worcester over 2m 7f (good) last month.

Faded Fantasy looks to be the pick of Christian Wiiliams' trio as he returns to fences off 12lb lower than his hurdling mark. Masterdream won here last month and enters calculations, though he can make mistakes and preference is for BALLYNAHEER. He made all to come home an easy 14-length winner here last time and 7lb more may not stop him if similar tactics are employed.
BALLYNAHEER impressed when going clear under a positive ride to win a handicap here by 14l last time. Though the opposition was modest, he remains in good form and should handle this longer trip well. Masterdream continues to thrive, improving again when stepping up in trip to score by 3 1/2l. A veteran performer in both codes, he prefers a sound surface and looks competitive once more if conditions suit. Faded Fantasy has been in fine form, scoring by 7l at Newton Abbot and proving well treated despite a 6lb rise. Effective over staying trips on a sound surface, he is thriving at present and could make his presence felt in the finish.
Possibly outstayed when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle over 3m2f at Ballinrobe last time; versatile with regard to distance.
A winner of a hurdle race at 2m on good ground. Well beaten at 14-1 behind Ad Caelum when sixth of 11 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Ballinrobe over 3m 2f (good) last month.

Winner of three hurdle races and three chases from 2m to 2m 3f on ground varying from good to soft to heavy, but last win was over three years ago. Finished 10l behind Sixty Plus when fourth of 8 at 25-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Worcester over 2m 4f (good).

Placed in a hurdle race from six starts. Third of 9 behind Basman Palace beaten 3l at 17-2 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Wincanton over 2m 4f (good) in March. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with W G M Turner.

Sun Joy put in a decent run when second here over shorter on his first start since February, and if first-time cheekpieces bring improvement he can go well, but one win for 14 starts over hurdles is a concern. Brilliant Light travels over from Ireland but top-weight may anchor him here, leaving the path clear for GOLD LINK. He kept on strongly to win over C&D last month and the booking of Harry Cobden to ride looks an eye-catching one off 4lb higher.
SUN JOY returned to form when a close second over 2m3f here last time, finishing five lengths behind a race-fit rival. Well treated on his old form and with his trainer in good order, he should improve for that run and could be competitive stepping up to 2m5f. Gold Link has been well handled and improved when stepping up in trip to land a handicap here by a neck off 102 last time. Judged on his chase form, he remains well treated and is likely to make his presence felt. War Lord had every chance at Worcester but was beaten 10l, and with a poor strike rate and a decline in form, he may now need some give in the ground to feature.
