Selected odds by:
Her only win to date came at Towcester back in November 2016 when she captured a 2m novices' handicap chase. Her jumping has let her down on occasions, and whilst in theory she's on a reasonable mark, she hasn't shown masses of late.
Course winner (3m1f+ hunters chase), but has returned from an absence in strong form this spring/summer, winning over 2m4f at Hexham in early June and twice a runner up since. Climbing in the weights, but this noticeable drop in trip might not be such a worry for a keen front runner.
Been around for ages and a four-time winner around here with his chase form reading very well. However, not always the most consistent overall throughout his career and disappointing that he backed up a May success (from Boss Des Mottes) with a very poor showing over C&D latest. Needs to bounce back.
Twice a runner up over fences since winning at Plumpton in January (2m1f soft), and the more rain that arrives the better for his chances. Had a spin on the Flat at Chepstow earlier in the month (not disgraced), and that will have kept him ticking over, so of some considerable interest with the champion jockey booked to ride.
Poor maiden hurdler who it's fair to say is fairly limited and only rated 77 in that sphere. Well out of her depth on her chasing debut in a 2m Perth novices chase last month, and whilst this looks more appropriate, she'll struggle to make an impression.
14 race maiden who hasn't shown all that much until recently. Built upon an improved 2L+ fourth to Miss Conway at Hexham in mid June with a 2L second to Roman Numeral at Southwell last weekend. Might not want too much rain, but on the up at his own lowly level.
56 race maiden over fences, and won just once in 71 career starts. You need to go all the way back to Boxing Day 2012 for that 2m Market Rasen hurdles victory (seller), so impossible to consider in any shape or form.

Forecasts
Dica (5/2), Rhythm Of Sound (11/4), Yourholidayisover (9/2), Endeavor (11/2), Miss Mackie (6/1), Adarenna (10/1), Nearest The Pin (16/1), The Society Man (40/1)
Dica is dropped noticeably in trip, but that might not prove too problematic in a moderate contest given his front running style of racing. We know that this in-form veteran can go well at this unique track and he should run his race despite a climbing mark. However, the most obvious winner appears to be the Tom Gretton trained YOURHOLIDAYISOVER. Any further rainfall (some forecast) will only serve to improve his chances, which already look most appealing on paper, so this January Plumpton scorer is a most confident selection with Richard Johnson in the plate.
