Formscan  - Having reached the frame on both outings over hurdles, HALFTHEWORLDAWAY could be poised to open her account. The five-year-old finished 15 lengths clear of the third at Uttoxeter last time out and a repeat of that performance may prove sufficient. Point-to-point third Longhouse Gem is a potential fly in the ointment on her Rules bow and market support could prove significant. Geordies Betty is the pick of the remainder.
