MERCER'S TROOP took a step forward on his handicap debut when second at Plumpton last month and looks more than capable of getting off the mark over timber. Three Bullet Gate was comprehensively outclassed in a Grade 2 over 3m at Cheltenham last month and the drop in trip on his first try in handicaps makes him of considerable interest, while Percy Prosecco could improve on his third outing over timber.
He has won two hurdle races and two point-to-points from 2m 3f to 3m on good and good to soft ground. Beaten 2l by Ballywood when second of 3 at 7-4 on his latest outing in a chase at Doncaster over 2m (good) in December last year.

Alex Hales has won this contest twice in the past three seasons with Big Jim and he looks to have an able replacement to continue that fine recent record in HUNTSMAN SON. He has course experience having finished runner-up to Kalashnikov on his chase debut and bounced back to form when runner-up at Doncaster last month. Movie Legend has been very consistent this season and will benefit from the return to 2m, while Bright New Dawn could appreciate a change of scenery as he makes his debut for Olly Murphy.
GENEROUS DAY has taken really well to chasing and can make it third time lucky in this sphere with the drop back to this trip sure to suit. Reliable pair Movie Legend and Huntsman Son can fill the places.
Winner of two hurdle races, four chases and a point-to-point from 2m 7f to 3m on good ground. Won on his latest outing in a Grade 2 chase when 11-8fav in the Group 2 bet365 December Novices' Chase at Doncaster over 3m (good) in December last year, beating Theclockisticking by 17l. Has won 3 times this season.

OK CORRAL was a high-class novice hurdler last season, finishing second in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham, and he won well on his debut over fences last month. A reproduction of that effort would give him a big chance this afternoon. White Moon won with plenty in hand at Exeter earlier in the month, while Secret Investor was a Grade 2 winner over hurdles in October. Rocky's Treasure has already had a very productive season but may struggle to give 5lb to some very talented rivals.
ROCKY'S TREASURE has been most impressive since being switched to chasing, jumping soundly when making it 4 wins from his 5 starts in a Doncaster Grade 2 last month. He can put his experience to good use and concede weight all round. Smart-hurdler Ok Corral is also very interesting on the back of his easy Plumpton chase debut success and feared most.
A winner at 11-2 in a Grade 2 hurdle race in the Group 2 Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham over 3m (good to soft) on his latest outing in December last year, beating Lisnagar Oscar by 2 3/4l.

TIDAL FLOW was an impressive winner of a very competitive novice hurdle at Newbury and that performance is only enhanced by the fact that he was carrying a 6lb penalty. He will need to take another step forward to land this but he is unexposed and improving. Rockpoint sets the standard following his Grade 2 victory at Cheltenham last time out but he is vulnerable under a 5lb penalty. With Birchdale out, Stoney Mountain could give Tidal Flow most to think about.
Has won six hurdle races and two chases from 2m 2f to 3m 1f on good to soft and heavy ground. Finished 14l behind Wholestone when last of 5 at 10-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Aintree over 2m 4f (good) in November last year.

Milansbar returns to the scene of his biggest career success in this contest 12 months ago but that came on much softer underfoot conditions and this looks a stronger renewal on paper. Calett Mad, second in the Borders National at Kelso over 4m, and last year's runner-up Cogry both warrant respect for Nigel Twiston-Davies, but the vote goes to DUEL AT DAWN. A winner on good ground in his novice hurdle days, this looks to have been the plan since his second to Ms Parfois in the novice chase on this card last year and a recent run in the Tommy Whittle at Haydock should have blown the cobwebs away. Step Back, Un Temps Pour Tout, and Ultragold all appear to have the Grand National as their big target this season so it will be interesting to see how they fare with that event in mind.
STEP BACK should be all the sharper with his reappearance behind him and can get back on the up with the cheekpieces he wore to such good effect at Sandown last spring back in place. Nigel Twiston-Davies pair Cogry and Calett Mad head the dangers along with last year's winner Milansbar.

A mid-winter break could be just what FIRST ASSIGNMENT ordered having seen his hat-trick bid end in defeat at Haydock in a Grade 3 contest. However, he was beaten less than two lengths on that occasion by a horse who won the Grade 1 Long Walk Hurdle on his next start and Ian Williams' six-year-old looked a progressive animal in the early part of the season when landing a pair of Cheltenham handicaps. Keeper Hill was back to something like his best when second at Cheltenham in December and is easily the pick of Warren Greatrex's pair in this, while it is interesting that Blaklion reverts to hurdles following a disappointing return in the Becher Chase and he could be well treated off a mark 5lb lower than his chase rating. Lungarno Palace is another to keep an eye on following some smart performances this winter and was second on his only previous outing here.
Half-brother to No Comment, won three times over hurdles at 2m 3f and 2m 4f and in NH flat race at 2m 2f.

A lot is taken to chance with all the runners making their first racecourse outing, but it is Alan King's MILLSTONE who appeals most. The mount of Brendan Powell is related to a plethora of winners, including a bumper winner for the stable, and the handler has already saddled two scorers in this sphere at this track this season. Harry Whittington is more than capable of readying one first time out and it is interesting that Richard Johnson partners his Honourmission, while the Ian Williams representatives Pour Joie and Jumpsuit are worth a market check.
HONOURMISSION won't lack for speed if his pedigree is any guide, and representing a stable with an excellent record in this sphere, he has a lot going for him on paper. With no form to go on the market will be revealing, but Millstone and Frau Georgia are feared most at this stage.
