Horse silk
8/1
Racked up a Flat hat-trick when trained in France in 2015 (useful form) but didn't show much when running in Ireland (twice over hurdles). Better ground of late in point-to-points has seen him revive; latest win at Tabley (3m, good) a week ago.
3/14 in point-to-points he was successful on his latest start (Tabley 3m, good) but that did come after an abject failure on his Rules debut at Hexham (pulled-up). Held up on that occasion his jumping lacked fluency and more needed here.

5/2
Failed to win under Rules (has some placed form) but has since improved to win four times in point-to-points; has won last three starts in that sphere. Likes to race prominently and given his recent form is one of the leading lights in this contest.

Horse silk
18/1
Three-times a point-to-point winner but he's had plenty of chances in that discipline (3/27) with his last win coming early last year. Recently made his Rules debut at Kelso but looked laboured and slow and this sharp test may not suit.
2/2 in point-to-points for this yard having been 0/10 for his previous handler. His last race resulted in a dead-heat in a race where only two finished so not hard to have some doubts about the form on Rules debut; has time on his side though.

20/1
Offered little on his hunter chase debut at Sedgefield when a 5/1 chance and then showed even less next time out. Despite a three-time point-to-point winner it looks as though his Rules form is weak.

9/4
Has five wins to her name in point-to-points (won her last start) she looked to show improved on her third and most recent hunter chase start. Runner-up in a race she had finished 8th in the year before at Hexham although rather fortunate to do so.

Not a particularly strong event and the point-to-point form is hard to weigh up but REFUSAL likes to go from the front (tactics that often suit here) and he’s on a winning roll at the moment. Recent wind surgery may bring about more improvement as could the first-time hood. Wizadora stepped up on her previous hunter chase form last time taking advantage of some late misfortune to the principals at Hexham. Asangy has appreciated the better ground of late and should be respected while Skyhill Allstar is one who has youth on his side. Fair Exchange hasn’t jumped well so far under Rules and he would be the one of the market leaders to have doubts about.
  1. Refusal
  2. Asangy
  3. Wizadora
