SANTA CLARITA (10) makes for appeal from current mark with additional conditional claim to assist. Better off at the weights following a good second behind the re-opposing STARLYTE (7) who has been in excellent form producing chase victories at Newcastle and at Kelso and bidding for a hat-trick is not to be dismissed. ALL THE GLORY (1) returned after a four month break with a ninth attempting a Class 2 handicap hurdle at Wincanton. Faces easier task. Place chance receiving top weight. SUNDAY SOLDIER (2) holds each way claims. Progression likely having produced a reappearance fifth.
