Celtic Dino
Two-time bumper winner (soft/good, including here) who easily justified odds of 2-5 on last month's hurdle debut at Wincanton (1m7f, good), warming to the task as the race went on; he's a leading candidate today.

Nothing To Sea
Very useful in light Flat career for Ralph Beckett (wins on good/soft) and he scored with something to spare on last month's hurdle and stable debut at Compiegne (2m2f, heavy); today is a much tougher test of his credentials but no surprise if this French challenger is up to the task.

Royal Infantry
Point winner who made it 2-2 in bumpers (good to soft/heavy) with Listed win at Newbury in February, before fair eighth in the big one at Cheltenham; had to work fairly hard to win at 4-9 on hurdle and seasonal debut at Chepstow (2m, good) but could have lots more to offer in this sphere.

Wade Out
Point (3m, soft) and bumper (2m, good to soft) winner who made it 3-3 when odds-on for last month's hurdle debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft); that form has been franked by the runner-up and he's one to consider.

Kingston Bresil
Second on debut in point-to-point bumper in May but hasn't shown enough on his three rules runs to suggest he'll threaten in this warm race.

Joyeuse
Changed hands for 235,000euros after winning on debut in French 3yo bumper (1m4f, good) in October 2022, and it was her first run since when she won a maiden hurdle at Taunton (2m, soft) this January; returns from another absence today but the Taunton form has worked out extremely well and her top trainer has won the last three runnings of this race; firmly in calculations.

Kenmya
Five-time winner on the Flat in France but at an ordinary level, and following an absence she was tailed off at 16-1 on this month's hurdle and stable debut at Uttoxeter; she'd be a shock winner today.
