With Regent's Stroll going in at Wincanton on Tuesday, LUCKY PLACE's task has been made a lot easier. A dual Grade 2 winner over hurdles, Nicky Henderson's six-year-old was disappointing on his chase bow at Ascot but boasts plenty of class and is taken to come good this time. Jig's Forge was third in handicap company at Cheltenham and can pick up the pieces should the selection misfire.
Regent's Stroll is almost certainly capable of better and can go well if lining up - he's due to run at Wincanton on Tuesday - but LUCKY PLACE is a confident pick, the classy hurdler having shown plenty but run something of a strange race on his chasing debut at Ascot. He looked in complete control before losing his lead and then running on again and, stepping up in trip with that run under his belt, he really should win. Jig's Forge ran a race full of promise in a Cheltenham handicap on his chasing debut and this longer trip should suit, but on hurdles form he's got 19lb to find with the selection.
Below form and never involved when comfortably held in a handicap at Southwell last time. Off a short break and should be effective at 2m over hurdles. Type to do well hurdling.
Finished 18l behind Betelgeuse when sixth of 9 at 3-1 on his latest outing at Southwell over 1m 6f in October. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Charlie Fellowes.

Down To Business displayed ability on the Flat when trained in Ireland, most notably at the Curragh last time out when he finished a close-up third. The market should tell us more about how he's schooled over hurdles for Dan Skelton, while similar comments apply to Northwest Passage. LOVE SONNET brings proven hurdling form to the table, though, and gets the nod following her Hereford triumph.
Down To Business makes obvious appeal for the Skeltons, having signed off for former connections with an improved showing in a Curragh maiden, but CAYMAN DANCER brings plenty of potential for the in-form Moore stable. He never quite fulfilled early potential for Charlie Johnston on the Flat, but did improve to win at Wolverhampton last time and he can kick his hurdles career off with a win. Nelson Gate, a stablemate of the selection, boasts hurdling experience and can go well also.
Below debut form when stepped up in grade and comfortably held in an auction hurdle at Galway last time; off a short break; effective at 2m and likely to stay further in time; probably one for handicaps after this.

KADASTRAL bumped into a nice type on his hurdling debut at Chepstow last month and can go one better back at the track where he won his bumper last season. Secret Beach and Contacto are interesting Flat recruits and must be taken seriously, but the main danger to the selection is Loustic Du Chatel, an impressive bumper winner at Ascot on his debut.
Contacto was a useful middle-distance stayer on the Flat and, picked up for 52,000gns out of Andrew Balding's yard, he looks just the sort to make a nice hurdler, but there was a lot to like about KADASTRAL's hurdling debut at Chepstow, not being knocked about to take second behind a smart type, and he really should be winning this at a track where he won a valuable bumper in the spring. Loustic Du Chatel slipped the field when making a winning debut at Ascot and he goes hurdling with a hood added now, so might settle better.
Green and made mistakes but went clear with ease for a very promising debut in a maiden hurdle at Gowran Park last time. Off a short break; effective at 2m4f and acts on yielding ground. Form nothing special but looks useful.
Successful in a hurdle race and a point-to-point at 2m 4f and 3m on yielding ground. A winner at 9-4 in a maiden hurdle race at Gowran Park over 2m 4f (yielding) on his latest outing in October, beating Jackmoon by 16l. Having his first run for a new stable today.

KRIPTICJIM left a lasting impression when winning at Ascot last time out. He wasn't stopping at the line over 2m3f that day, so it's quite possible that he could improve again for this extra yardage. Daydream Nation won an Irish point-to-point before bolting up on his Rules bow at Gowran Park and is very much a player. Trial By Jury is also worth a look.
Quite a useful event. Irish runner Daydream Nation impressed on his hurdles debut at Gowran and, although that form hasn't exactly worked out, it was hard to argue with the style of his victory. KRIPTICJIM is the selection, though, having got off the mark in good style at Ascot last time. He'd earlier bumped into a useful mare at Chepstow, when runner-up on his hurdles debut, and is taken to defy a penalty before potentially going up in grade. Starzand is the other previous winner over hurdles but this is tougher than the Ffos Las event he scored in on hurdles debut.
Ran to form back from 11 months off after wind op when beaten 1/2l off 135 at Uttoxeter last time; trainer in form; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on S, G; still has potential over fences.

A trappy contest, not least because most of these arrive in good form, so only a tentative vote goes to LOOKAWAY. The useful hurdler is one from two over fences and the defeat came in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham, so he might have more to offer at this level. Mighty Bandit and Highlands Legacy are open to further improvement too and both could mount a serious challenge, as might the consistent Torneo.
Lookaway is classy and should come on for his reappearance run, with the return to fences in his favour, but he's had breathing issues and has done the majority of his winning on a sound surface, so he wouldn't want much rain. The selection is HIGHLANDS LEGACY at the foot of the weights. He almost certainly has more to offer as a chaser, up 3lb after finishing second to a progressive type at Aintree last time, and the long straight here should suit him ideally, with him proven over further. Torneo is a tough sort, still only a 5yo, and capable of better still.
Outpaced, ran to form, looked in need of stiffer test when beaten 2l off 128 at Doncaster last time; effective 2m-2m3f, suited by cut; Mullins runner surely hasn't reached ceiling of potential just yet.
Successful in a hurdle race and a NH flat race at 2m and 2m 4f on good to soft and good - yielding ground. Third of 7 behind Alien Storm beaten 1 3/4l at 9-4 on his latest outing in a chase at Doncaster over 2m 3f (good to soft) last month.

FINE CASTING made a successful seasonal/fencing return at Bangor last month and if he's come on for that run, a 6lb rise might not stop him from going in again. Road To Home had looked outpaced before keeping on into third at Doncaster latest and is a real player, as is Knight Of Allen, who can improve on his chasing debut effort.
Jane Williams took this race last year and can do so again courtesy of KNIGHT OF ALLEN, who made a promising debut over fences at Chepstow, bustling up a higher-rated rival, and he can show himself to be nicely treated from a mark of 122. Road To Home has yet to fire over fences for his top yard but he surely has a bigger effort in him yet, so can go well despite top weight, with Don't Tell Su not comfortably ruled out on his debut for Nicky Henderson, having not really kicked on for his previous yard.
Very promising debut when winning by 2l in a mares' bumper at Stratford; effective at 2m and acts on good to soft. Needs more under a penalty but is clearly a promising type.
Dam won twice between 1m 4f and 2m. A winner at 9-1 in a NH flat race at Stratford over 2m (good to soft) on her latest outing in October, beating Graceful Glance by 1 3/4l.

Tom Bellamy rode Galaxy Star to success on her racecourse bow at Stratford but she has more to do under a penalty and stable companion SAXONS PRIDE, who struck the woodwork on her debut, could be the one. There are a number of interesting newcomers, though, including the likes of Lady Litigator and Wait For This, while Roxy Russet might not be out of this either.
Alan King holds a strong hand. He trains the only previous winner Galaxy Star, who scored nicely on debut at Stratford, a race that has produced winners, and Saxons Pride, who showed plenty at Huntingdon on debut. Both are capable of better still, but Anthony Honeyball won this with a newcomer two years ago and can repeat the trick with LADY LITIGATOR, whose dam is from a good family, several of whom won bumpers.
