Hombre De Guerra can make it back-to-back wins at Ayr on Monday in the Try Racing TV For Free Now Novices' Limited Handicap Chase.
Eight of the seven-year-old's nine career starts have been at the Scottish track and on his only appearance elsewhere, he finished second to Caldwell Potter on his Carlisle chasing debut.
On the strength of that form, Nick Alexander's charge looked to have been let in lightly by the assessor when switched to handicap company here early in the new year and he duly bolted up, making much of the running and scoring with plenty in hand.
The handicapper has inevitably had his say, handing Hombre De Guerra a 10-point rise from 112 to 122, but he clearly likes this place and there is every chance further improvement will be forthcoming.
A chance is taken on Rafferty's Return in the racingtv.com/freetrial Handicap Hurdle.
The 10-year-old has won five times for Rebecca Menzies and is only 1lb higher in the weights than when last striking gold at Newcastle last season.
He was a tired faller on his reappearance at Wetherby in November and was also well beaten on his most recent outing at Doncaster, but the return to more demanding ground conditions may see him in a better light.
Lavender Hill Mob is backed to make it third time lucky over obstacles in the Hazelton Mountford Insurance Brokers Juvenile Hurdle at Warwick.
It is fair to say the 96-rated Flat performer has not yet translated that high level of ability to the jumping game, with a short-price defeat at Newcastle followed by a fourth place finish in a Triumph Hurdle Trial at Cheltenham in mid-December.
His hurdling technique was better at the second attempt, though, and he certainly has enough about him to win a race of this nature with a clear round.
The Nicky Henderson-trained That's Nice can reward those who keep the faith in the Watch Racing TV Free For 31 Days Mares' Novices' Hurdle.
The point-to-point graduate looked a smart recruit for owner JP McManus when winning at this venue on her rules debut and the form is strong, with the runner-up Honky Tonk Highway going on to score at Listed level on her next start and then pushing Derryhassen Paddy close at Windsor on Friday.
That's Nice, on the other hand, fluffed her lines as an odds-on favourite for a four-runner novice event at Cheltenham, with Henderson suggesting afterwards she was showing signs of being in season.
Whatever was ailing her that day, it was clearly not her true running and she is given another chance.
Sold The Dream returns from a nice little break in Kempton's racingtv.com Handicap and should go well if in the same form as when just collared close home over the same course and distance on his last outing, when a well-backed favourite.
Fools Rush In has been in fine spirits of late and has the early speed to overcome a tricky draw in the Weekly Free Bets With BetMGM Extra Handicap at Wolverhampton. - Press Association
