WOLF RAYET proved his 40/1 Chepstow second was no fluke when running well for fourth in a good contest at Cheltenham. He holds a Triumph Hurdle entry and although that seems fanciful at this stage, victory here would mean he wouldn't look out of place in something like the Fred Winter. King Al chased home a classy juvenile at Kempton and is feared most, and Down To Business has also shown enough to warrant an interest. Gallivanted is rated 79 on the level and has joined Harry Derham after changing hands for 70,000gns.
This can go to TALAKAN, the former French Flat racer who shaped with a good deal of promise on his hurdles debut at Ascot, travelling well before a mistake two out and then rallying to take third. He finished one place ahead of Down To Business on that occasion and can not only confirm form but beat the rest as well to get off the mark at the second attempt over hurdles. Wolf Rayet looks the danger, with both his runs having worked out well. He didn't get the best of runs at Cheltenham last time but still came home well. King Al is from a yard that does well in these races and he can step forward again having finished an improved second at Kempton last time.
Point winner who was asked to do too much when upped in trip last time. Trainer is in form and first-time tongue-tie may help her settle better back at a more suitable distance.
A winner of a point-to-point at 3m. Well beaten at 11-2 behind Coolanna when fourth of 5 on her latest outing in a hurdle race at Uttoxeter over 2m 6f (heavy) in December last year. She is wearing a tongue-tie for the first time.

Modest effort in novice hurdles so far. Effective in points but likely needs more time under rules.
Placed in a point-to-point from four starts. Well beaten at 300-1 behind Jackie Hobbs when 11th of 16 on her latest outing in a hurdle race at Warwick over 2m 3f (good to soft) last month.

It's fascinating that Willie Mullins sends DIAMOND DU BERLAIS over for her debut for the stable. The five-year-old has held her own in good company in France, was snapped up for 160,000 euros last summer and she is likely to prove a warm order. Afancy Getaway has yet to live up to her impressive point-to-point form since going hurdling, but cannot be written off yet. No Flies On Her could collect minor money.
It's interesting that Willie Mullins sends his new recruit DIAMOND DU BERLAIS across for this mares' maiden hurdle given she was pretty useful in France, twice placing at Grade 3 level but without being able to win. If she gets near her best on this first run outside of France then she really ought to collect. Khutulun Khan will surely come on for her hurdles debut and can have a say if running to her bumper best. No Flies On Her is third on the list provided she's over her last-time-out fall.
Made mistakes and was outpaced when below form, well beaten in a novice hurdle at Kempton on his final qualifying run up in class. Likely to need further than 2m over hurdles once going handicapping.
Yet to place in six starts. Well beaten at 200-1 behind Baron Noir when last of 7 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Kempton over 2m (good) last month.

SHERMINATOR came to grief in the Cheltenham event won so easily by Supreme hotpot Old Park Star at Cheltenham, but showed a useful level of ability in winning at Newbury and Taunton last season. As they were Junior NH events, he escapes a penalty and can get his career back on track. Kiwi Rush was useful in bumpers and has contested some good races since going jumping. He is joined on the list of dangers by First Candidate, who is the pick of the Skelton pair.
First Candidate showed more when fifth in a first-time tongue-tie at Huntingdon but she's still got a bit to find with KIWI RUSH, who was better than the result suggests after a blunder at Cheltenham last time and looks to have been found a good opportunity. He can be keen but this fast 2m test should suit ideally. Drakaris looks a decent second string for Dan Skelton, the mare having run well on both starts to date. She has place claims.
Travelled well and went clear cosily when improving up in trip to land a handicap by 4 1/4l at Hereford last time off a mark 10lb lower. Effective at 2m-2m4f and there may be more to come.

Rodney fell when looking the likely winner on his chasing debut at Bangor, but bounced back from his next start at Warwick to score at Leicester and Hereford. The progressive seven-year-old commands plenty of respect, but a 10lb higher mark requires another step forward and the vote goes to TOOTHLESS. Paul Nicholls' gelding improved from his return at Wincanton to get his head back in front at Windsor and is capable of handling a 5lb rise. Charles Ritz and Regal Renaissance appear best of the remainder.
Charles Ritz returned to form at Southwell, despite a lengthy absence, and he remains well treated if building on that, but this can go to the progressive RODNEY, who made it two in a row in good style at Hereford last time and is taken to defy what could be viewed as a hefty 10lb rise. He's only just getting going in his career, though, very much being a 7yo on the up, whereas many of these have had their peak. Toothless has taken a 5lb rise for winning at Wincanton but it's a mark that should still be competitive judged on his best.
Flattened out over a trip that stretched when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Kempton last time. Suited by 2m4f and effective on soft and good ground, and has been a consistent performer overall.
She has won four hurdle races from 2m to 2m 4f on good and soft ground. Finished 13l behind Star Walking when sixth of 10 at 20-1 on her latest outing in a hurdle race at Kempton over 3m 1f (good) in December last year.

Masked Dance's C&D victory in December was boosted by the runner-up scoring at Chepstow last week and the eight-year-old has to enter calculations once again. That said, the vote goes to handicap debutant SALLYVILLE LADY. Dan Skelton's mare has shown promise on both hurdle outings and an opening mark of 111 appears to be workable. Hard Dealt chased home the same progressive winner at Uttoxeter and Aintree, and is respected along with Pismo Beach.
It's hard not to be attracted to handicap debutante SALLYVILLE LADY in this, the unexposed 6yo making her handicap debut for the Skeltons following two promising efforts in novice hurdles. A former point winner, she's surely better than her opening mark of 111. Pismo Beach is consistent and can go well again with a first-time tongue-tie acting as a possible catalyst for improvement. Victoria Milano is considered also if okay after a last-time-out fall. She'd have needed that run, her first since a wind op, and should improve.
Bit below form and needed the run when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow last time. Returns from a short break, is effective at 2m and acts with cut, and should come on for that reappearance.

It's easy to assume that FOLLOWING CHAPTER has more to offer after he overcame a bit of greenness to score decisively at Warwick's New Year's Eve fixture. That was the six-year-old's best performance so far and an 8lb rise appears to leave him with room for manoeuvre on just his third start in handicap company. Shuil Ceoil (second) and Moorland Rambler (third) plugged on to fill the frame behind a ready winner at Exeter last month. They might find the same fate awaits here.
Shuil Ceoil has returned to form of late and remains nicely treated on old form, so must be considered, but FOLLOWING CHAPTER looks progressive and can prove too strong. He won nicely at Warwick, despite still looking to have a bit to learn, and an 8lb rise shouldn't be enough to prevent a follow up. My Fortune is an interesting alternative for Ben Pauling, the 6yo making his handicap debut over a more suitable trip. Look for significant improvement.

After six wins in his last seven starts in hunter chases and point-to-points, BARTON SNOW is impossible to overlook. A slight concern is that he's only raced once since May, but he won by a distance at Sheriff Hutton last month and the signs were all positive. The consistent Jeffery's Cross is the pick of the rest based on his best form under Rules. This represents a big drop in class and he must be taken seriously. What A Glance completes the shortlist.
This can go to the progressive BARTON SNOW, who was on a roll in good hunter chases in the spring, winning significant events at Cheltenham and Stratford, and returns to rules not long after a successful spin in a point. He should prove too strong for Jeffery's Cross, who is coming off a good run at the course last time, and What A Glance, who likely needed his reappearance run in a point-to-point.
