14/1
Third chase success when easily taking a Doncaster Grade 2 in January and best effort when second to Edwardstone in the Kingmaker at Warwick following month. Jumping has let him down since, only fourth at Exeter on return, and there will be no room for error in this scenario.

Useful hurdler who has proved better over fences and had plenty in hand when scoring over C&D (beat Frero Banbou) 3 weeks ago. Bold bid expected.

Has built up a very solid record over fences, scoring over C&D last term, and made a reasonable return when third to Thyme White here last month. Others look better treated.

13/2
Took his form up a notch last season, scoring at Lingfield (2m) and third in the Grand Annual at the Cheltenham Festival. Disappointed on final outing but right back on track when second to Thyme White over C&D on return. Worthy of consideration.

2/1
Useful bumper/hurdles winner who was right back on track when making his second chase outing a winning one at Newton Abbot a month ago. Open to further improvement and makes plenty of appeal.

50/1
Smart chaser who lost his way towards the end of last season and took little interest over C&D on reappearance. Needs blinkers to perk him up.

2/1
Looked a smart prospect when breaking his duck over hurdles in maiden at Kilbeggan and has created a good impression in winning both chase outings to date, comfortably seeing off a subsequent winner at Carlisle on latest. Big player back down in trip.

Forecasts

Boothill (2/1), So Scottish (2/1), Edwardstone (11/4), Thyme White (9/2), Frero Banbou (13/2), Third Time Lucki (14/1), Before Midnight (16/1), Kiltealy Briggs (25/1), Amoola Gold (50/1)

Verdict

SO SCOTTISH is progressive over fences and his recent Carlisle success has been boosted by the runner-up, so he makes plenty of appeal for his shrewd Irish yard with a promising conditional rider taking over. Arkle winner Edwardstone is an obvious danger and Thyme White demands respect having quickened clear impressively over C&D on his reappearance.
