A chance is taken on last year’s runner-up ENVIOUS EDITOR bouncing back to form. Fier Jaguen is a possible big threat but his tendency to jump to his right is a concern. Caryto des Brosses also has leading form claims but mainly at 3m+ so it remains to be seen whether he’s fully effective over this much shorter distance.

LIFT ME UP has a good strike rate in points and made a successful Rules debut in a Newbury hunter in March so, with more to come, he looks the solid option. All Is True has won his last 3 outings in points with plenty to spare, so he looks the main threat ahead of Theshoddytradesman, although the market will be informative.

MARCLE RIDGE can boast a superb record in points and, as a winner of this in 2019, a bold bid seems assured. Trio For Rio landed the 2021 and 2022 renewals of this and he won’t go down without a fight, with Moratorium considered for all he does need to bounce back.

If PREMIER MAGIC is in anything like the same form as when successful at the Festival in March he’ll be very hard to beat. Dandy Dan was pulled up at the Festival but he won this race last year and can bounce back and provide the chief threat ahead of Rebel Dawn Rising, who would have won at Fakenham recently but for unseating at the last.

A winner at this meeting 2 years ago, HIGHWAY JEWEL boasts an enviable record in points, running out a facile winner on her latest outing 25 days ago and, remaining open to further progress in this sphere, she looks the one to beat again. Singapore Saga may emerge as the chief threat, with another low-mileage improver, Sine Nomine, also expected to be in the mix.

LAW OF GOLD holds the edge on form and comes here on the back of a point win so gets the nod in an open hunter chase. Shantou Flyer is feared most on the back of his recent Exeter victory ahead of Just Your Type, a dual point scorer this year.

MAGIC SAINT is best not judged on his latest effort at Aintree and he’d previously been quite impressive at Wincanton, so he’s worth a chance to resume winning ways. Paloma Blue and Not That Fuisse could pose the main threats.
