2:13 Gowran Park Going Soft / Distance - 3m 0f

Pool Value: £54.36

Hiddenvalley Lake and Buddy One are closely matched on their Aintree form from the back end of last term. The former has solid claims after a huge run when narrowly denied in the Long Walk on return while Buddy One may bounce back to form over timber. However, it may be worth taking a flyer on the progressive ROCKY'S DIAMOND who ran with plenty of credit when dropped in at the deep end at Leopardstown over Christmas and he's far less exposed than the remainder of his rivals.

No.	Selection	Form		Guide	ToteWin	TotePlace
1	Beacon Edge D J Gilligan / G Elliott	11yrs / 11st 8lb 245137 Spotlight	152	28/1
Beacon Edge Grade 1 winner in his pomp and still capable of useful form, as seen when landing a below par Grade 2 at Wetherby in November; however, tough ask to give weight to all but one of these rivals.
2	Hiddenvalley Lake D J O'keeffe / H De Bromhead	8yrs / 11st 8lb /F13-2 Spotlight	160	2/1	11.10	1.60
Hiddenvalley Lake Progressive sort who landed a Grade 2 at Navan last season when giving weight to re-opposing runner-up, Beacon Edge; followed that up with a third in the Liverpool Hurdle just behind Buddy One and was only just touched off by Crambo in the Long Walk on seasonal return; still unexposed and could come on for that Ascot run.
3	Asterion Forlonge P Townend / W P Mullins	11yrs / 11st 3lb 2612-6 Spotlight	165	4/1	11.70	1.60
Asterion Forlonge Veteran; talented when he puts it all together but he was back to jumping right on return at Leopardstown when beaten a long way out and he has questions to answer now; opposable given that he's likely to be short enough in the betting.
4	Buddy One J G Gilligan / P J Gilligan	8yrs / 11st 3lb 4-1343 Spotlight	164	11/2	3.40	1.10
Buddy One Finished in front of Hiddenvalley Lake in the Liverpool Hurdle last season and creditable efforts in two other Grade 1s either side of that run; won three-runner beginners' on return but hasn't built on that since; will be a major player if the return to hurdles gets him back on track.
5	Franciscan Rock G Brouder / M F Morris	8yrs / 11st 3lb 6-3611 Spotlight	159	16/1	27.10	4.30
Franciscan Rock Has won twice over this sort of trip this winter with two career best efforts; more required again to land a hat-trick against these rivals but has each-way claims.
6	Kalanisi Star P T Enright / O Mckiernan	8yrs / 11st 3lb 11575/ Spotlight	144	66/1
Kalanisi Star Bumper/maiden hurdle winner before some tough assignements; would need a career best here and has been off 638 days.
7	Maxxum Sam Ewing / G Elliott	8yrs / 11st 3lb 1-P844 Spotlight	159	11/1	10.20	1.10
Maxxum Won the 3m handicap hurdle at the DRF last season and he can be dangerous when allowed to dictate the pace on the front end; has to take his form to a new level against these rivals though.
8	Rocky's Diamond S Fitzgerald / D Queally	5yrs / 11st 3lb 01-513 Spotlight	158	6/1	1.50	2.10
Rocky's Diamond Maiden hurdle winner at Limerick last season and made it two from four over timber in a C&D handicap on return; big career best when staying on for third in the Savills Hurdle on return, not getting a run at a crucial stage and he has a lot more upside than most of his rivals here; more needed again but not ruled out on just his sixth start over hurdles.
9	Sandor Clegane S F O'keeffe / P Nolan	8yrs / 11st 3lb 244-24 Spotlight	154	9/1
Sandor Clegane Chased home Franciscan Rock at Clonmel before finishing 4l behind Rocky's Diamond when fourth in the Grade 1 Savills Hurdle last month; likely to need a career best.
10	Thedevilscoachman M P Walsh / N Meade	9yrs / 11st 3lb /7243- Spotlight	162	18/1	43.40	4.30
Thedevilscoachman Grade 2 winner in February 2022 and has won a pair of Grade 3s over fences since; however, struggled in this race last year and it was a similar story on his only start since at Fairyhouse; off 297 days.
