A poor turn out for the opening contest where two look to have realistic chances. Tuanku faces a much easier task than his recent seventh in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham and seems sure to have his say here, but HELIUM is the confident selection. He showed a likeable attitude when landing the spoils over a similar trip at Warwick 32 days ago and fully deserves this step up in grade. King Olav makes his hurdling debut here and could prove best of the remaining trio.
Successful in a hurdle race and a chase at 2m 3f and 2m 5f on good and soft ground. Won on his latest outing in a chase when 13-8fav at Folkestone over 2m 5f (good) last month, beating Turbulance by 4 1/2l.

Alan King's RUSTARIX was impressive when bounding clear to score by 4 1/2-lengths in a novices' event over 2m5f at Folkestone 17 days ago and, with that confidence-booster under his belt, he gets the vote to follow up on his return to handicap company. By George won readily at Huntingdon latest and should go well off a 7lb higher mark here, while Presentandcorrect bumped into a high-class sort at Leicester last time is another that cannot be left out of calculations.

Coral Cup third Junior bumped into a useful sort when runner-up over an extended 2m5f at Exeter last time and seems sure to have his say at the finish here, but Howard Johnson's 320,000gns purchase, ON RAGLAN ROAD, could take all the beating. He was by no means disgraced when runner-up at Aintree 40 days ago (third and fourth and won since) and a repeat performance could well be good enough. Ogee has been a model of consistency this term and is another with solid place credentials.
He has won a hurdle race and three chases from 2m 3f to 3m on ground varying from good to soft. A winner at 13-8 in a chase at Cheltenham over 3m (soft) last month, beating Battlecry by 8l.

Carl Llewellyn's stable star, ROLL ALONG, looked better than ever when beating subsequent Hennessy runner-up Air Force One at Ascot 34 days ago and, with that first run since April under his belt, he could prove a tough nut to crack in his bid to follow up. Barbers Shop lost little in defeat when second in the Paddy Power Gold Cup latest and looks sure to make his presence felt here, while Battlecry is likely to improve for his comeback run and can reverse placings with Ornais.
He has won three chases at 2m 3f and 2m 4f on ground varying from good to firm to good to soft. A winner at 12-1 in a chase at Kempton over 2m 4f (good) last month, beating Sir Bathwick by 9l. Carries a 7lb penalty today for that success.

Jim Bobs Girl produced a career-best performance when scoring over an extended 3m2f at Newbury last time and should go well under a 7lb penalty here, but LASKARI is well-fancied to complete the double. He couldn't have been much more impressive when landing the spoils at Kempton last week and can follow-up under a 7lb penalty. Presenting Express could be another worth closely monitoring in the betting market on his return to action.

The Venetia Williams-trained PTERODACTYL produced a gallant effort in defeat when runner-up over a similar trip at Leicester 18 days ago and, likely to strip fitter for that first run since April, he looks like the one that they all have to beat. Tifoso was twice a winner over hurdles in France and should play a leading role on his first run for a leading yard here, while Fredo is another that warrants respect on the back his recent Haydock win.
