HEREDITARY RULE has been in excellent form over fences lately and looks potentially thrown in back in this sphere, so he's a confident choice for all this looks a competitive affair. Handicap debutant Bang On Target looks a player and Yenellik is well worth considering despite going up 11 lb for his easy Wexford success.
