(2) Presentandcounting 9.89%
XP 8
PRESENTANDCOUNTING 9.89% still needs to conclusively prove his stamina for this trip but with forecast conditions in his favour and the likelihood of his own way in front, he could well be the answer. Neither To Be Sure nor Neville's Cross can be discounted, however.

RacingUK - AtTheRaces Picks
(3) To Be Sure 0%
XP 13
TO BE SURE 0% struck over C&D on his penultimate run and he followed that effort up when down the field in a class 3 event at Cheltenham, for which he has been dropped 1lb. The eight-year-old looks to have lots in his favour and is fancied to go in once more. Presentandcounting can beat Neville's Cross home for second as he steps up to this distance, which could unlock some improvement, off a 3lb lower mark than when a well-held fourth at Aintree.

SWORDPLAY 0% made an encouraging start here last week and could be hard to beat with the prospect of more to come over 6f. Fengari struck first time up at Leicester and can also improve over this longer trip.

(2) Swordplay 0%
XP 15
Fengari made her first start a winning one as she scored by a head at Leicester, but that was on much softer ground which could open the door for SWORDPLAY 0%. The son of Kodiac hit the line well last time over 5f at this track and he would have learned a lot from that first outing. With normal improvement, he could prove very tough to beat. Lincoln Royal is an interesting newcomer.

(1) Ajp Kingdom 19.44%
XP 15
Another good opening for AJP KINGDOM 19.44% and he can get the hat-trick up. Rostello is a risky betting proposition given his sketchy jumping but he might get away with mistakes in this and is preferred to Nearly Perfect for the forecast.

RacingUK - AtTheRaces Picks
(1) Ajp Kingdom 19.44%
XP 15
AJP KINGDOM 19.44% has won his last two starts unchallenged and is very hard to oppose in what appears to be a straightforward task in his bid to register a three-timer. He stays, has proven fitness and has the highest official rating. Nearly Perfect and Nitwit have something to prove after both failing to complete in their latest outings, so it might be down to Rostello to provide the selection with the most to think about.

(1) Absolute Ruler 13.7%
XP 5
ABSOLUTE RULER 13.7% holds the clear edge on form and is fancied to defy a 7 lb penalty for his recent Huntingdon success and make it 2-3 in this sphere. River of Joy should build on her Cartmel hurdling debut fifth and appeals as the chief threat to Jennie Candlish's mare ahead of the lightly-raced Designer Destiny.

(7) River Of Joy 11.11%
XP 14
Designer Destiny made a decent enough return from the sidelines at Warwick and could be in with a shout. However, preference is for RIVER OF JOY 11.11%, who shaped well enough on her hurdling debut at Cartmel to suggest she has some ability. Peter Bowen's mare was thought of highly enough to contest a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree last year, so better is anticipated. Film D'action completes the shortlist.

(4) Dr Sanderson 4.86%
XP 6
DR SANDERSON 4.86%'s recent hurdles form is clearly a concern, but he has been given a big chance by the handicapper and is an interesting runner back over fences for an in-form yard. Yccs Portocervo remains well treated on old form after his win over C&D last month so is the obvious threat.
Pick confidence 22%
Racing Post - Coral - WilliamHill Picks

Pick confidence 22%

(2) Yccs Portocervo 32.98%
XP 7
YCCS PORTOCERVO 32.98% was a comfortable winner over C&D and is hard to oppose, despite the imposition of a 6lb higher mark. The eight-year-old has been quite consistent over fences and given this doesn't look any tougher, he has a live chance of notching back-to-back victories for the first time in his career. Pens Man ought to be sharper after his spin around Market Rasen last month, while Dr Sanderson is well handicapped and also dangerous to ignore.

XP 7
HOLERDAY RIDGE 10.4% beat a subsequent winner by just over four lengths over C&D and has only been raised 5lb. The Claire Hitch-trained eight-year-old now has the assistance of Harry Cobden in the saddle and he looks difficult to oppose. The main threat might be Aces Full, who takes a step back in trip after being well held in third over the best part of three miles at Huntingdon, although Abaya Du Mathan is also worth a second glance.

XP 10
SHAHNAZ 12.5% turned in her best effort of the campaign in a solid-looking handicap at Pontefract 13 days ago and with the cheekpieces refitted/operating below her last winning mark, she could be ready to strike. Last year's winner Havana Party scored at Ayr on Monday and is feared, with Ravenglass and Zarabanda completing the shortlist.

Havana Party kept on to score by a length and a half at Ayr on Monday in first-time blinkers and has to be considered under a 5lb penalty, but he could come out second best to ZARABANDA 25%. The four-year-old filly ran with credit here on her return to action last and was subsequently dropped 2lb in the weights for her latest effort at Ayr. Ravenglass is also one to watch.

ROSE OF SIENA 0% took a step forward on handicap debut at Perth 3 weeks ago and there's reason to think she can do better still, so she's preferred to Noonie, who makes her handicap debut from a potentially lenient mark based on Flat form. Toughasoldboots is another one to consider.

NOONIE 20.12% has shown some ability since switching codes and considering she is open to any amount of progression now she knows more about what is required from her, she looks worth siding with as she steps into handicap company off a competitive mark. As is the case with the selection, Rose Of Siena has scope and warrants consideration, while Toughasoldboots has a touch more experience to call upon and is feared given she is only 2lb above her last winning figure.

There were more encouraging signs from HALIFAX 0% when finishing runner-up at Warwick just over a fortnight ago and, with first-time headgear applied to help sharpen up his jumping, Grace Harris' 6-y-o gets the verdict to double his tally. Loved Out is taking his racing well and he gets the vote for the forecast spot over the retuning Jen's Boy.

HALIFAX 0% took a step back in the right direction when runner-up on his latest outing at Warwick and the six-year-old, who is only 1lb above his last winning mark, could have more to offer in first-time cheekpieces. Jen's Boy has run well after a break in the past and commands respect, while Loved Out was only beaten a short head here on his penultimate start and is capable of a decent showing.

KHANJAR 0% ended last term on a low-key note, yet he'd previously looked a sprinter to keep firmly on side and, on the back of an encouraging return at York 3 weeks ago, he could be worth siding with to get back on the up. Edward Cornelius and Walking on Clouds are others to consider.

(7) Walking On Clouds 30%
XP 2
This represents a considerable drop in grade for Acklam Express, who sports a first-time tongue-tie following a disappointing run in the Temple Stakes at Haydock last month. However, he does have to shoulder top-weight here, so WALKING ON CLOUDS 30% is marginally preferred. A game winner over this trip at Ayr most recently, Grant Tuer's four-year-old cannot be dismissed now rated 1lb higher for that win. Khanjar and Edward Cornelius add further spice to the mix.

XP 12
Off the mark over fences at Fontwell this time last year, ANNIE NAIL 0% didn't go without encouragement after 10 months off at that venue in May and, entitled to be sharper with that under her belt, she's fancied to make her presence felt from a 2 lb lower mark. Stamina Chope and Cotton End head up the dangers, whilst the betting may prove useful in assessing Presenting Belle on her chase debut.

XP 12
Presenting Belle hasn't been seen to best effect over hurdles recently, but she might take a step forward on her fencing bow. Stamina Chope is now 6lb below her sole winning mark and can't be dismissed following a creditable fourth at Huntingdon, but it could pay to side with ANNIE NAIL 0%. Alexandra Dunn's mare bolted up in a small field, from 5lb lower, at Fontwell last June, so a similar scenario could help her regain the winning thread.

Having signed off with a win on his final outing for Joe Ponting, GAVIN 0% showed a good attitude to follow up in a C&D handicap recently, so there's reason to think he can complete the hat-trick in what doesn't appeal as a strong contest. Heronord is on an appealing mark and might well bounce back returned to hurdling, so he's feared most ahead of stablemate Sydney Blues.
Pick confidence 15%

GAVIN 0% arrives in search of a hat-trick having backed up his Fakenham success when making his debut for Peter Bowen here. He only just got up on that occasion but appeals as the type who could progress further. Sydney Blues offered some encouragement at Newton Abbot last summer and has to be of interest, especially with his attentions switched to handicap company for the first time. Karannelle is capable of better based on her two runs in May.

The hat-trick beckons for THERMOSCOPE 0%, who improved when scoring on the all-weather on his sole start for Brian Ellison in October and made a winning start for this yard, too, when routing the opposition over 2m at Musselburgh last month. He looks capable of coping with both this drop back in trip and 11 lb higher mark. Arrange should be all the better for her reappearance spin and is feared most ahead of La Pulga.

XP 7
With just the four runners heading to post, it is hard to look past THERMOSCOPE 0%, who bolted up over 2m at Musselburgh last month. That was his first run off a break and Keith Dalgleish's five-year-old must enter calculations off 11lb higher. Graces Quest has to defy a 5lb penalty following a three-quarters of a length success at Carlisle last Thursday, but she is still feared, while La Pulga completes the shortlist.

EASKEY LAD 18.18% was able to put a fall behind him when winning over C&D 17 days ago and, granted a similar performance, Rebecca Curtis' eight-year-old could repeat the dose. Tom O'Roughley beat a subsequent winner at Warwick so he merits respect from a 6lb raised mark, while the veteran Boagrius remains well treated judged on past exploits and is another who could have a say in proceedings.

Out of 2011 Epsom Oaks runner-up Wonder Of Wonders, she is a half-sister to Listed winner So Wonderful, who was twice-placed at the highest level. Seamie Heffernan takes the ride on Opera Singer, who is out of Group 3 winner Liscanna. She has already produced Hit It A Bomb, winner of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf in 2015 and 2016 Cheveley Park Stakes victor Brave Anna. Wayne Lordan gets the leg up on Content, who is out of brilliant dual-Group 1 winner Mecca's Angel. Hudson River was her first foal and he managed to win on debut, finishing down the field on his only subsequent start. Tachos is out of a sister to Glorious Empire, a winner at the highest level in America and she looks the most interesting of the remainder.

A dual course and distance winner, Helpmeout was fourth of 20 on her return to action at the Curragh last month and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a few places better now. Six-time winner Jered Maddox was also fourth in a competitive affair at the Curragh recently and he should give a good account of himself with Declan McDonogh aboard.

Salt Lake City was fifth in the Futurity Trophy Stakes when last seen at Doncaster in October, finishing ahead of subsequent Epsom Derby runner-up King Of Steel.
