Gordon Elliott's Wingmen is a six-year-old who made an eye-catching debut when storming to an eight-length success in a Naas bumper in December, staying on strongly and looking like one who will stay further in time. Although he finished well clear of the winner in third on his next start back at Naas, he travelled okay for most of the race and just lacked that extra pace on the line to the finish.

Ashdale Bob has been around for years and really should have more than 3 wins to his name. He just lacked the stamina to win the Grade 1 staying hurdle races. This time last year he finished a close fifth in the Grade 1 stayers hurdle won by Klassical Dream. Jessica Harrington has mainly campaigned him over shorter trips since January. The handicapper has relented dropping Ashdale Bob down 6lbs to a mark of 144. Conor Smithers rides and his 7lb claim leaves Ashdale Bob effectively racing from a mark of 137. He is too good a horse to ignore off that sort of rating even if carrying 11-5. This easy 2m7.5f trip is ideal, and I think he will run a big race today.

Enniskerry arrives here fresh for his first run over fences since the Galway Plate last summer! Trainer Barry Connell had him ready to run in the Grand Annual handicap chase at the Cheltenham Festival only for the ground to turn soft. He is a 10yo that has won 5 times from only 14 starts. Enniskerry is a big chasing type who gets his ground today at Punchestown. He looked a natural over fences, winning his first two chases easily at Galway & Roscommon. Barry tested him in the Grade 1 Dinmore Chase in 2022, but he didn't jump well out of testing ground. They gave him a shot at the Galway Plate where he ran well but ran out of stamina up the hill finish. A strongly run chase over an extended two miles on spring ground looks the job.

Alan King's Rakki cost 100,000gns as a yearling and showed clear promise in three starts on the all-weather up to a mile late last year. He is making his handicap debut here off a mark of 75, it's reasonable to expect marked improvement from the son of Sea The Stars now he tackles a mile and a half for the first time. Alan King is always to be respected with his three-year-old middle-distance runners and the form of Rakki's most recent Chelmsford fifth has received several boosts in recent days, with the runner-up Space Legend bolting up in a Leicester maiden and the sixth, Judgementofsolomon, winning on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton on Monday night.

Paul Nolan's Park of Kings has taken time to build on his early promise in bumpers. The application of a tongue tie at the start of this season seems to have helped with his breathing. He won twice at the start of this season at Roscommon and Punchestown over two miles. Those wins proved he has speed for a horse bred to stay further. Heavy ground proved his undoing at Gowran, and then he ran well to place third at Leopardstown over two miles at Christmas. Paul upped him in trip to three miles at the Dublin racing festival in a listed three-mile handicap. He ran well to finish fifth and will benefit from dropping down to today's intermediate trip of 2m3.5f. Connections have booked Aidan Kelly who is an experienced conditional jockey.

Tullyhill failed to fire at the Cheltenham Festival when sent off favourite for the Supreme Novices hurdle. He takes on the winner Slade Steel and runner-up Mystical Power again today. I think this horse needs spring ground to show his best form. He was the clear best of these in bumpers. Last year at this Festival he finished second behind dual champion bumper winner A Dream To Share. Tullyhill took a while to get the hang of hurdling but showed his class to win a listed race here in February. Paul Townend rides and the combination of nice ground and this course will hopefully see the real Tullyhill show up today.

James Fanshawe's East India Dock finished down the field on both his starts as a two-year-old last year, but has been gelded since and showed more on his reappearance over today's course and distance. In a race that was fairly steadily run, he was up against it from off the pace, but kept on to post a satisfactory effort. One place behind him that day, and also having his third run for a mark, was the Andrew Balding-trained Contacto. That colt has since won by seven lengths on his handicap debut at Doncaster, and an identical mark of 66 may well underestimate James Fanshawe's gelding as well, especially considering he's a half-brother to Burdett Road, who's developed into a very useful performer on the Flat and over hurdles.

The winner went on to be placed in Group company, while the third won a novice next time out, and the fourth, who was having his second of three qualifying runs for a mark, bolted up on his reappearance/handicap debut at Catterick. Jersey Rocs was sent off odds-on to go one better on his next start but was tailed off and reported to have finished lame. It's easy to put a line through that, and in a novice that probably won't take a lot of winning, he makes plenty of appeal.

He has been dropped two lbs in the handicap for those runs which means he's back on his last winning mark, and he now steps up from a mile to mile and six furlongs. He won at up to a mile and a half as a four-year-old, and has since won over hurdles close to two and a half mikes, so this distance promises to suit him a lot better.

Venetia Williams has a strong chance with Martator in this novice’s handicap chase. He jumps well and has not finished outside the first three in all his eight starts over fences. I thought that soft ground was important for this horse, but he proved me wrong with a tidy win at Ascot last month. I was more impressed with the fact he coped with a drop in trip on good ground as that race was over 2m1f. The handicapper has raised him 5lbs to 127 which is fair and workable. Martator will enjoy going back out in trip to 2m4f. He travels and jumps well and will be staying on strongly up the hill finish carrying a low weight of 10-6 with Charlie Deutsch riding.

Helnwein has been laid out for this final with trainer Alan King saying as much back in February. He has run consistently on all four runs over hurdles including a winning start at Warwick. He ran over course and distance when second in a listed novice hurdle on heavy ground, last December. That was a three-runner race and Helnwein needs a fast run race where he can come from behind. He finished fourth at Kempton in a Grade 2 hurdle race won by Lump Sum. Last time out. He finished runner-up to Secret Squirrel at Taunton. This stiffer and more galloping course will help reverse placings with Secret Squirrel along with the fact he is 5lbs better off at the weights against that rival here. Helnwein has a low weight of 10-13 and looks a decent each way shout in a wide-open race.

Palace Green unseated and impeded Royal Supremacy out of the stalls at Newbury on his next start. Also, I think he didn't enjoy the soft ground at Newbury that day. Andrew Balding stepped him up to a mile at Kempton and I like the way he finished off his race that day to win snugly. A mark of 86 looks fine, and he carries a low weight of 8-10.

Now with Mark Loughnane Quickfire disappointed on his final two starts for his former trainer Ed Walker last year which were his only two all-weather starts. But he has bits & pieces of turf form for that yard when two-year-old last year, winning at Lingfield and running well at both Salisbury and Bath. He returns to the turf having been gelded, on his first start for his new trainer who's developed a good record with his new recruits over past few years. In fact, these connections landed a punt when 'Mbappe' won in his stable debut earlier in the year, and in a race which shouldn't take much winning, I think he looks worth risking.

Anglers Crag travelled easily upped in trip for the Eider Chase but did guess and make a mistake over the second last fence. I like that he picked up again to win snugly is there is such a thing as a snug neck win! The ground will not be as testing in the Scottish Grand National which is a positive. The handicapper has raised him 8lbs to a mark of 134 which is acceptable. Anglers Crag carries a feather weight of 10-4 thanks to Paul Nicholls running top weight Stay Away Fay.

A spin on the flat at Southwell will have kept Marble Sands ticking over nicely for his first run over this trip chasing. He did run well in the Grade 1 novices staying hurdle at the 2022 Aintree Festival. I think stamina will be fine, and he showed his class earlier this season winning here over two miles and then placing second behind the ill-fated Hermes Allen at Newbury.

Brian Ellison's Miners Gamble comes here off an unchanged mark following a highly encouraging handicap debut over C&D last month, when staying on for a close-up third. He missed the start there and with sharper reactions from the gates he should go close this evening.

James Ferguson's Engelbert finished down the field on his reappearance at Southwell, but the outing should have brought him on, and he now returns to the course and distance over which he's recorded his two best runs. Last March he was an easy winner here, and in October he was runner-up to Doctor Khan Junior. That latter effort is particularly strong form, the winner going on to complete a four-timer and rating 26lb higher than when he beat Engelbert in the first of his wins. The third also won next time out.

David O'Meara's Bopedro won this race last season off a rating of 97. He is rated three lbs higher this time round but has conditions to suit. A strongly run mile on good ground is just the job on a galloping course. Bopedro has shown a liking for Newmarket around both the July and Rowley mile courses. He has won on both courses and placed third on his other runs on each course. I think he is well drawn high in stall 14 with pace around him from stalls 16 & 17. Bopedro should be fit and ready following two runs on the all-weather at Lingfield.

Hugo Palmer's Watcha Matey is a huge price here The gelding ran three solid efforts on a sound surface over six and seven furlongs last season. Including winning a novice race over seven here in August his last two runs were on unsuitable soft ground. I think at 50/1 with four places being paid he is a good EW bet.

The James Evans trained Dream Composer won this race last year, before landing decent pots at Goodwood and Sandown, and returns off a lb lower mark than his victory 1 twelve months ago. With a recent pipe-opener at Doncaster under his belt he could well go in again,
