LARCH HILL could feature strongly in this one as he picked up a course and distance win in May.
Larch Hill was last seen here at Stratford on a follow-up. He was well below his best in that one. But it’s been three wins from five for his current yard.
ELIOS D’OR has been in form the last twice, and he won as recently at Ludlow in May on his penultimate run.
On his last time out, he was a runner-up at Worcester and Elios D’Or should be right in the frame in this one.
He was only narrowly touched off last time out and is a threat.
MICK PASTOR makes a return from a break of three months and his connections will be hoping that sharpens him up.
He won his first four goes over the fences last season, really ticking along nicely.
But he went cold after that. Mick Pastor may have a chance to be refreshed.
Ones to watch: Larch Hill 4/1, Mick Pastor 7/4

ENCOURAGABLE is arguably the one to beat in this contest as he takes a slight drop in grade.
He was in Listed company last too out, which was just too much for him on the day. But there was an excellent all-weather score for him prior to that.
Encouragable is on a good mark for what is just his fourth racetrack appearance and he poses a threat.
CASSY O piques some interest in this one as he claimed a victory at course and distance in June.
He followed that up with a fifth-place finish at Carlisle, a run full of credit. Cassy O was below form at Ayr last time out.
COPPER AND FIVE is better off in the ratings against Cassy O after finishing three lengths behind that rival at a course and distance in May.
So with that swing, and being a former course and distance winner, plus carrying a 3lb claimer, Copper and Five should be competitive.
Ones to watch: Copper And Five 5/1, Cassy O 5/1

CREMANT has been in good form this season, winning one of three runs. That success was in a handicap at Aintree over the hurdles in June.
The follow-up by Cremant in that one was a third-place finish at course and distance (handicap).
He’s dropped 1lb and this is an easier race than last time out.
SERJEANT PAINTER is seeking a hattrick and therefore warrants plenty of respect on Sunday.
Since switching to the fences, he has been thriving. Those two wins were on 2m trips in Southwell handicaps.
Serjeant Painter gets an extra 5lb but is still in with a big shout.
CARDBOARD GANGSTER was a winner last time out, getting his nose in front in a 3m Perth chase.
The cost of that is an 8lb rise as he was dominant in that one. Cardboard Gangster is down in the distance on Sunday, which keeps him in it.
Ones to watch: Cardboard Gangster 11/4, Serjeant Painter 11/8

Distance: 2m

SOPHOSC has delivered some terrific form as of late, getting a win in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton in May.
A recent spin on the flat at Newbury, which he won by a neck, keeps him nice and sharp for a return to the timbers.
POP THE CHAMPAGNE is seeking a hattrick when he steps on to the track on Sunday at Stratford.
He kicked off this current form with a score as a novice at Ffos Las in June.
His follow up under penalty at Worcester was eye-catching and he should be right there.
RAFIKI landed a win on his hurdles debut, which was at course and distance a month ago.
That was a nice start, and Rafiki was a fairly useful one on the flat before that. Rafiki has room for improvement in his jumping, but poses a threat.
Ones to watch: Pop The Champagne 9/4, Rafiki 9/4

REBEL ROXY makes a reappearance run here as she moves into handicapping for the first time.
The tongue-tie goes on for the first time. Last season she did deliver plenty of encouragement in bumpers.
Credible form over the hurdles last time in novice and maiden company gives Rebel Roxy a chance.
MALINA OCARINA has put in a couple of runs this season, having made a return from a break of 12 months.
In her most recent effort, Malina Ocarina was a fourth-place finish at Cartmel three weeks ago. She looked sharp in that and warrants respect for racing tips.
CALL THE FAIRIES was a faller in a mares’ handicap at Worcester last month.
As long as there’s no fall out from that, she should have a chance at the places. Call The Fairies is still a maiden, but not a forlorn hope.
Ones to watch: Malina Ocarina 11/4, Call The Fairies 9/2

Race Preview
MAC AILEY was a third-place finisher last time out in a handicap at Carlisle. He showed a good attitude to stick in there.
There have been encouraging signs from him recently and Mac Ailey could be building nicely towards better things.
PREMIERSHIP is the only three-year-old in this line up, but he warrants respect.
He takes a move up in trip and the fact that this looks like a weak line-up, could help his cause. Premiership was third here at Redcar last time out in a handicap.
CLOTHERHOLME missed out on a hattrick when he put in a credible effort at Musselburgh three weeks ago.
He stuck to it well enough and moved up further in trip for this one.
It has been strong form from him for a while and his consistency puts him back there.
Ones to watch: Premiership 11/4, Clotherholme 9/2
