Handicappers' nap

Nordic Combined(3.00 Sandown)

Rounded off last season by posting a career-best RPR at Taunton and shaped fairly encouragingly on his recent reappearance.
Steve Mason

Ace tipster

Your Darling (1.50 Sandown)

Talked about in glowing terms by trainer Ben Pauling after his impressive bumper win and blew away the cobwebs when third over hurdles at Huntingdon. Return to a softer surface will suit.
Robbie Wilders

Speed figures

Sire Du Berlais (1.00 Navan)

Earned excellent figures when landing his second Pertemps Final at Cheltenham in March and can take the step up in grade in his stride.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Scrutinise (3.10 Stratford)

Made winning reappearance over course and distance last month and good second to well-handicapped winner here last time when clear of the third. Continues to climb the weights but strong claims nevertheless.
Ben Hutton

Dark horse

Cheb De Kerviniou (1.35 Navan)

Placed in four of five starts for trainer Gordon Elliott, the best of which was a close second in the Leinster National. Open to further improvement this season and gets soft ground here.
