Bonza Boy
Struck form towards end of last season, winning two 2m3f chases (both on soft) before a good second over that trip; made low-key reappearance over 3m in November but may fare better now dropped back in distance and with that run under his belt.

King Arise
Returned from long absence with close second on last month's chasing debut then drew clear to win comfortably by 11l over C&D (good to soft) nine days ago; still lightly raced; commands respect under 7lb penalty.

Bentley's Return
Low-mileage 6yo who ran well in defeat on recent seasonal/chase debut at Plumpton (2m3f, good to soft); will be a tough nut to crack if able to build on that performance.

Paddy In The Caddy
Won two 2m chases last month and lost out only narrowly to unexposed rival over that trip at Hereford (good to soft) on Saturday; gets another chance off the same mark here and this move back up in trip won't be a problem; likely to be right in the thick of things.

Pedley Wood
Won twice (3m1f/3m2f) during first season over fences and made a satisfactory reappearance last month (3m); current mark is workable but today's drop back in trip raises a query.

Doyen For Money
Doubled hurdling tally with cosy win here (2m4f, soft) in November 2023 but, following a long absence, lacked fluency and was pulled up on last month's chasing debut at Southwell; may yet have a good future over fences but others here have much less to prove.

Hatos
Well held when third on seasonal/stable debut in October but seemed to be perked up by first-time cheekpieces when beaten about 6l in that position here (1m7f, good to soft) last month; remains on a workable mark and will be fine over today's trip; in the mix if that headgear continues to help.

Bring The Action
Scored in first-time blinkers at Hereford (2m5f, good to soft) in April but the novelty of the new headgear seemed quickly to wear off in the early part of this season; needs to have been refreshed by 202-day break.
