The Happy Warrior - 13:20 Worcester
The Happy Warrior scored three times over timber last term and, out of a smart staying chaser, is bred to fare better still now faced with the larger obstacles. A recent outing at Chepstow will have blown away the cobwebs and he gets the vote ahead of fellow likely improvers Smiles For Miles, Silent Knight, Red Devil Lads and Westerly Breeze.
Springinherstep - 15:10 Taunton
The manner in which Springinherstep won at Stratford just four days ago strongly suggests a follow-up bid off a 7-lb penalty could potentially be a formality with conditions once again ideal. Her main danger could well be Pure Style, who has shaped as if needing this trip, while Houston Dynimo also comes here in form and should once again run well, especially as his hurdles mark looks exploitable.
Realta Mo Croi - 15:20 Worcester
Cash For Steel is a very solid operator at this level and must go well back on her correct mark, but Realta Mo Croi and Carhue Princess reappear for in-form yards and could be the pair to focus on. The former can boast a very good record fresh, and looks the pick of the weights to boot, so gets the verdict.
