GUARD DUTY laid a really solid foundation for hurdling in bumpers, winning on debut before a sound third under a penalty and this looks a good starting point for him over obstacles Boyles Hill should also have a fair future as a jumper and is a threat, with Scintillante capable of better if settling, with a hood looking a good move

THE GYPSY DAVEY might have lost his unbeaten record when third on his chase/handicap bow at Market Rasen last week, but it was still a promising start in this sphere, and this looks a good opportunity with most of his rivals arriving with something to prove. Fearless bounced back to form when a close third at Kelso 3 weeks ago and is the obvious threat.

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): E Williams (43 wins from 378 runners, 11%) runs COUP DE GOLD TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): F O’Brien (2 wins from 24 runners, 8%) runs CHANCYCOURT
WEIGHTWATCHER: KEPAGGE won off a handicap mark of 118, his rating is now down 7lb to 111. LONGEST TRAVELLER: JASMIN DE GRUGY trained by A Honeyball, Beaminster, 154 miles.
JASMIN DE GRUGY arrives on an upward curve and has already tasted success here, so he seems an obvious choice as he bids for a quick hat-trick Gavin is of interest returning to a track where he boasts a good record and Crossbeau deserves respect for all that he was firmly put in his place by the selection last time
