Fret D'estruval makes his first start for Alan King following two comfortable triumphs for Guillaume Macaire in the latter part of the summer and the double green silks of Simon Munir and Issac Souede are synonymous with success in this sphere. Dan Skelton's Protektorat is another representing highprofile owners and he is interesting on his first UK outing. Top Tip: FANFAN DU SEUIL (1) Watch out for: FRET D'ESTRUVAL (2)

That is comfortably the best form of these over timber and a repeat on his chasing debut should see him hard to beat. Stablemate Jenkins should not be dismissed lightly, however, while Rebecca Curtis' DROVERS LANE has slowly developed into a useful operator and having got his chasing career back on track with a slick round of jumping to score by 11 lengths at Market Rasen last time, can advertise his fencing talents to a wider audience here. The Russian Doyen is also respected following a comfortable chase debut success at Exeter and he looks tailormade for the larger obstacles. Top Tip: DROVERS LANE (1) Watch out for: OK CORRAL (6)

A 10lb shouldn't be too much of a burden considering the ease with which Tom George's sevenyearold scored last time and he was second in this contest last season. It was Kerry Lee who landed the spoils on that occasion with Gino Trail and she looks to repeat the dose with another of her stable veterans in Top Gamble, who will be suited by any ease in the ground. Easy Aintree winner Yorkist and Hell's Kitchen are others to consider, while Theinval is potentially plotting a path back to the Grand Annual in March but his course experience can't be completely ignored. Top Tip: BUN DORAN (3) Watch out for: YORKIST (6)

5 ATR VERDICT: Frodon looks to reclaim the crown he won in 2016 and overturn the twolength deficit he has with BetVictor Gold Cup winner Baron Alco, who looks to do the Cheltenham handicap double off a 6lb higher mark. Gary Moore's sevenyearold has a fine record at this venue and missed the carnage that ensued in behind when making all last time out. Guitar Pete finished third that day and landed the spoils in this contest last season so he must be respected here along with recent winners War Sound and Mr Medic, with the latter representing a team that landed bigrace success at Aintree last weekend. However, preference is for RATHER BE, who was unfortunate to be brought down four out in Cheltenham's November feature and was in touch and travelling well at the time. He was prominent in the betting that day and is sure to be popular off the same handicap rating. Top Tip: RATHER BE (3) Watch out for: BARON ALCO (2) 2018 At The Races. All Rights Reserved.

He appeared to relish the step up in trip when beating Stoney Mountain at Ascot over an extended 2m5f last month and the extra couple of furlongs should play to his strengths. Aye Aye Charlie finally got his head in front at Kelso and he possesses the strongest form in the book, while he could improve over 3m. Danny Whizzbang, Supremely Lucky and Lisnagar Oscar all boast solid claims in their own right. Top Tip: DOUX PRETENDER (1) Watch out for: AYE AYE CHARLIE (2)

Summerville Boy's jumping failed to cut the mustard behind the impressive Buveur D'air in the Fighting Fifth and he will need to improve in that department here. That said, rain would help his cause greatly along with WE HAVE A DREAM, who didn't appear to get home over 2m3f at Ascot last time and the drop back in trip looks in his favour. Vision Des Flos and Western Ryder both showed smart form as novice hurdlers and can put themselves in the mix, especially the latter who sports firsttime cheekpieces. Top Tip: WE HAVE A DREAM (5) Watch out for: VISION DES FLOS (6)

Definitelyanoscar should be suited by a step up in trip on her handicap debut after winning at Warwick last time, while Ratoute Yutty caught the eye when fourth to Didtheyleaveuoutto at Ascot last month and could be in the mix with a tonguetie applied.
