PLAY SMARTER
RIVER TYNE returned to form when runner-up to a subsequent winner in a better race than this at Plumpton 4 weeks ago and this looks a good opportunity for her to finally get off the mark. Point/bumper winnerThe Gambler didn’t show much over hurdles but may do better now handicapping over fences, so may emerge as the biggest threat.

PLAY SMARTER
The shortlist is rather long (cases can be made for the majority of these), with NOT AT PRESENT shading preference. He would have gone very close but for some errant jumping in the home straight at Doncaster last time and is appealing off the same mark here. Dalamoi has been given a chance by the handicapper and will be a threat if he puts his best foot forward, while the reliable Mixedwave, Island Run and Lord Sparky, who boasts a terrific record at this course, are others to consider

LARGY POET looks a young staying hurdler to keep on the right side of and he’s fancied to complete the hat-trick stepping into handicap company. Bridge North would likely have won if not for a late fall at Doncaster last time and he rates as the main threat provided headgear has the same effect second time around, with Chris Cool taken to complete the placings.
