Course and distance winner Riddlestown has the assistance of Gina Andrews but is back over hurdles for the first time since September 2013 and after 20 starts over fences. He's been more consistent so far this term, however, and looks the better of the Fryer pair. Occasionally Yours looks the preferred of the Blackmore duo on the back of a return to form when outspeeding Bennachie at Southwell. He'll go well if in the same mood while Royal Etiquette looks on a fair mark despite retaining maiden status over timber. Owner Occupier can be a tricky ride but has gone nicely for this amateur twice before and can't be ignored off his current mark but WEYBRIDGE LIGHT has gone well on all five starts on the Flat this year and finished a solid second around here on his only jumps venture. He was a good second at Wolverhampton just 10 days ago and is taken to concede weight all round.
