Tedwin Hills
Made all in good style at Huntingdon (3m, good; 3lb higher today) in October 2023 but has run poorly in both starts since, absent 11 months in between; led until a bad mistake three out at Uttoxeter (15-2) on latest and reportedly had a wound on his right-fore; 10lb claimer is enlisted.

Super Citizen
Won a Kelso hunter chase last January and second in one last May; having run creditably in December on his last two outings, third of 13 over C&D on latest, he is in serious calculations.

Big Bee Hive
Record switched fences in the first half of 2024 read 12112; he's shown that sort of form only once (three starts back) this autumn/winter, despite starting favourite last time, but conditions look fine and he'd be a leading player if back to his best.

Hobb's Delight
Very lightly raced for his age; a good six-month spell over hurdles (on mostly good to soft) preceded his extremely close call off this mark on chase debut at Plumpton (3m1f, good) in October; soft ground may have been against him next time and he ran respectably at Wincanton; firmly in the picture if he takes to the first-time headgear.

Benefit Ben
0-5 in points and 0-6 under rules, well below form in his three handicaps; latest was his chase debut in first-time cheekpieces and leaves him with a lot to prove on this third run for current yard; unraced beyond an extended 2m4f under rules.

Aazza
Went the wrong way in autumn 2022 in her only three chases under rules; arrested her slide over hurdles when third of seven at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) on latest start, wearing first-time cheekpieces on second run for this yard; place chance if that form is transferred to chasing.

Batman For Ever
Ex-French; last April's win was in a point and he's 0-9 under rules in Britain; third of 13 in handicap at Uttoxeter (3m, good) last June on latest outing, which gives him a place chance if he's okay after the break.

Emotional Roller
Second over about 2m4f at Carlisle (hurdles) in November and Wetherby (chase debut) in December but his two subsequent runs over fences have been disappointing, both of them over about 3m and he's yet to prove his stamina; career strike-rate now stands at 0-18, including six points.

Don Brocco
Both of his wins were over hurdles early in 2022 when cheekpieces first went on and he's 0-11 over fences; switch to blinkers did not get the same response over hurdles on latest outing (he's back in cheekpieces today) but he was not disgraced and has another career-low mark this time.

Wexford Park
Placed in his two Irish points in 2023 but has accomplished little in six races under rules, pulled up this term in both his chases (3m, soft); now tries cheekpieces.

Ideal De Romay
Won an Irish point in 2023 but low-level maiden after 15 races under rules; while his second at Newcastle (extended 2m7f) on penultimate start offers some hope, he pulled up over hurdles next time and is 7lb out of the weights today.
