No show on Sandown reappearance in November and has had wind surgery since. (Forecast 15.00) Harry Bannister H Whittington Lorcan Williams (5) t Bryony Frost Mrs Fiona Shaw TIMEFORM VIEW: HIGHEST SUN left the impression there's more to come when second at Wincanton last month and he gets the nod to go one better from the same mark. Choix des Armes may have more to offer back from 9 months off, while The Dubai Way is another to consider returning to hurdling on what appears a workable mark. 1: HIGHEST SUN (3) 2: CHOIX DES ARMES (10) 3: THE DUBAI WAY (9) Jockey Colours: Emerald green, yellow hoops, white cap Timeform says: Best effort yet over hurdles when second of 14 in Bellewstown handicap in July.

Capable of better still now handicapping, assuming his temperament holds. (Forecast 8.00)

2 Jockey Colours: Dark blue and yellow (quartered), striped sleeves Timeform says: Made an encouraging start in 2 bumpers 14 months apart and should come into his own now jumping, albeit this is a tough starting point.

He's a really smart prospect who should have no trouble getting off the mark. (Forecast 1.67) 4 I'M A STARMAN ch g Schiaparelli Strathtay Jockey Colours: Purple, pink sleeves, green cap Timeform says: Schiaparelli gelding. Halfbrother to 2m winner Sail With Sultana.

Slightly underwhelming fifth over C&D subsequently but remains with potential. (Forecast 12.00) 6 2 LITTLE RED LION (IRE) 68 b g Sans Frontieres Rever Up Jockey Colours: Dark green, red cross belts, dark green and beige striped sleeves, dark green cap, red star Timeform says: Shaped well in a bumper at Ffos Las a couple of months and bred to make a hurdler so not completely discounted for all this is a strong race. (Forecast 26.00) 7 1S MCNAMARAS BAND (IRE) 94 b g Getaway Katies Pet Jockey Colours: Maroon, black hoop, diabolo on sleeves, hooped cap Timeform says: Looked a good prospect when winning bumper at Worcester in June 2017 and was in process of making a very encouraging hurdling debut on first run since when departing late over C&D 3 months ago.

(Forecast ) ROBYNDZONE (IRE) 91 b g Frammassone Rebecca Susan Jockey Colours: Red, white chevrons, royal blue sleeves, pink stars and cap Timeform says: Irish point winner who was down the field in a couple of bumpers and is likely to have a considerate introduction to hurdling with a tongue strap fitted returning from 3 months off.

3 TIMEFORM VIEW: DICKIE DIVER was unfortunate not to get the better of a subsequent 10length Grade 2 winner when touched off over C&D on debut, so this imposing recruit from points should have little trouble getting off the mark here before moving on to bigger and better things. Kingsplace and My Story are the alternatives but they're dependent on the selection underperforming. 1: DICKIE DIVER (3) 2: KINGSPLACE (5) 3: MY STORY (9) (R3) 15:05 CHEPSTOW, 3m 2f 54y Pertemps Industrial Novices' Chase (Class 3) (5YO plus) 1 11PP 3U CHEF DES OBEAUX (FR) 36 BF b g Saddler Maker O Dame De Gene p1 Aidan Coleman N J Henderson 149 Jockey Colours: Red, pink hoop and armlets Timeform says: Grade 2 novice hurdle winner last season. Sound enough start over fences when third at Uttoxeter (2½m) in December and went well for a long way before unseating over shorter here latest. Lead player. (Forecast 1.73) JAMMIN MASTERS (IRE) 39 C BF b g Sinndar Zara Million R Johnson W Greatrex 137 Jockey Colours: Dark green and yellow diamonds, yellow and dark green halved sleeves, yellow cap Timeform says: Dual hurdles winner last term and even better form in filling runnersup spot last 3 starts over fences, albeit unable to justify short odds at Newcastle (23.4f) latest. Still, he's respected. (Forecast 2.88) 3 P14/P NORUKI (IRE) 26 b g Flemensfirth Classic Material Mr Shane Quinlan (7) D L Williams Jockey Colours: Emerald green, white hoops, white sleeves, emerald green armlets, red cap Timeform says: Winning Irish pointer back in 2017 but looked badly in need of experience on Rules/chase debut late last month, jumping ponderously. Best watched on that evidence. (Forecast 34.00) 4 23 ST ERNEY 90 ch g Kadastrof Ticket To The Moon David Noonan Miss J Plessis Jockey Colours: Black, red sash and armlets Timeform says: Runnerup in a point last winter and he shaped fairly promisingly when third on chase debut at Exeter (3m, soft) back in November. Entitled to come forward from that effort. (Forecast 10.00) TIMEFORM VIEW: CHEF DES OBEAUX produced a promising display when third on chase debut at Uttoxeter in December and, with his subsequent noncompletion best overlooked, he is fancied to make a bold bid to open his chase account with the longer trip expected to suit. Jammin Masters comfortably rates the chief threat. 1: CHEF DES OBEAUX (1) 2: JAMMIN MASTERS (2) 3: ST ERNEY (4)

Another good placed effort at Exeter on Friday. Respected. (Forecast 8.00) TOMMY RAPPER (IRE) 84 b g Milan Supreme Evening Jockey Colours: Purple, orange star, hooped sleeves and stars on cap Timeform says: Useful and progressive hurdler last term. Promising third on Ffos Las chase debut/reappearance in October but not so good at Bangor 6 weeks later. Freshened up and now returns to smaller obstacles. (Forecast 8.00) 3 710/1 PP EL BANDIT (IRE) 71 C b g Milan Bonnie Parker Jockey Colours: Royal blue and orange check, royal blue sleeves, royal blue cap, orange star Timeform says: Five hurdle wins in 2016/17 but very lightly raced since. Pulled up in a couple of hot handicap chases this winter but singlefigure SPs suggest better was expected. Interesting back hurdling. (Forecast 9.50) KAPCORSE (FR) 49 br g Kapgarde Angesse Jockey Colours: Emerald green, yellow hoops, white cap Timeform says: Looked smart when making it 23 over fences in Newbury handicap in December. Easy winner back hurdling at Wincanton last month and scope off this mark based on chase ability.

(Forecast 34.00) SAMBURU SHUJAA (FR) 36 CD b g Poliglote Girelle Jockey Colours: Emerald green, purple cross belts, purple cap Timeform says: Finally off the mark over hurdles when easily landing a C&D maiden last month.

(Forecast 7.50) 9 8F2557 ARCTIC GOLD (IRE) 55 D b g Gold Well Arctic Warrior Jockey Colours: Dark blue, maroon epaulets and armlets Timeform says: Fivetime hurdle winner and useful form at best over fences for all he often makes mistakes. Below par over the larger obstacles on last 3 outings so return to timber needs to spark him back to life. (Forecast 23.00) 10 F/0P5 P4 JETSTREAM JACK (IRE) 59 D b g Beneficial Westgrove Berry Jockey Colours: Red and black check, pink sleeves, black armlets, hooped cap Timeform says: Ended time for Gordon Elliott in uninspiring fashion over fences. Disappointing in 2 runs over hurdles for Olly Murphy late in 2018 and plenty to prove now for another new yard. Cheekpieces added. (Forecast 41.00) DIGER DAUDAIE (FR) 50 D b g Tiger Groom Stone Again Jockey Colours: Yellow, blue stars on body Timeform says: Winning pointer who landed novice hurdle at Newcastle in December. Not disgraced under penalty at Lingfield since and unexposed now handicapping. Opening mark looks tough, though. Tongue tie added. (Forecast 12.00) 12 FP5333 WICKED WILLY (IRE) 29 D br g Arcadio How Provincial Jockey Colours: Dark blue, grey stars, grey sleeves, dark blue stars Timeform says: Scored twice over fences last term and in decent heart back hurdling this time round, good third of 9 at Huntingdon (25f) last time.

(Forecast 15.00) P TOBEFAIR 36 CD b g Central Park Nan Jockey Colours: Black, orange diamond, sleeves and cap Timeform says: Completed remarkable 7timer in staying handicap hurdles a couple of years ago. Just the one creditable effort since, and he's not threatened over fences of late. (Forecast 29.00) 7 3F31/04 LORD OF THE ISLAND (IRE) 1 b g Heron Island Miss Morose Thomas Bellamy Mrs D A Hamer Mr S A Morgan (7) F O'Brien TIMEFORM VIEW: EL BANDIT hasn't figured in a couple of hot handicap chases this winter but the fact he's been prominent in the betting suggests connections are hopeful his ability is still there and he might be worth chancing back hurdling having won off a higher mark a couple of years ago. Stablemate Kapcorse is a potentially dangerous opponent, while Tommy Rapper is also of some interest returned to timber. 1: EL BANDIT (3) 2: KAPCORSE (4) 3: TOMMY RAPPER (2)

6 Jockey Colours: Red, dark blue disc, halved sleeves Timeform says: Successful in 17f chase in France in 2016 but confined to just 2 starts for present yard (pulled up twice) and he can only be watched. (Forecast 17.00) TIMEFORM VIEW: CAPELAND has proved a model of consistency over fences this term, successful on 3 of his last 5 starts, and he is fancied to come out on top once more on the back of wind surgery. Haydockscorer Dicosimo and Overtown Express are fancied to give the selection most to think about. 1: CAPELAND (1) 2: DICOSIMO (5) 3: OVERTOWN EXPRESS (2) (R6) 16:50 CHEPSTOW, 2m 11y Pertemps Network EMEA Handicap Chase (Class 5) (5YO plus) MODELIGO (IRE) 54 CD b g Indian Danehill Glens Lady b1t Stan Sheppard (3) M Sheppard 100 Jockey Colours: Emerald green, orange sash and sleeves, white cap Timeform says: Continues to fall in the weights without showing any sign of taking advantage, always behind at Warwick last time.
