ALLOW ME has a long absence to overcome but his debut third at Newcastle in March last year is the best form on offer here and James Ewart's six-year-old is fancied to make a successful reappearance. Fill The Power finished second over this trip at Newcastle in April and has scope for further improvement, while Ifonlyalfie won a point-to-point in the same month and makes his debut under Rules today. Momkinzain has won at Lingfield and Salisbury on the Flat this year and should stay the trip but it's hard to make a case for fellow hurdling newcomer Misty Cloud.
