Bel Amigo
French 2m4f chase winner in 2024; now in a good vein of form over hurdles, winning two novices here (2m1f, good/good to soft) in March; that looks the best form on offer and Dominic Hislop's claim helps offset the double penalty; leading contender.

He's A Diamond
Unplaced in bumpers but off the mark immediately over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m4f, good; 20-1) last month, making all under Brian Hughes; that form might not have much depth but he jumped soundly in the main and is open to improvement.

Berry Edge
3-33 on Flat, one of those wins on this course (1m1f) on good to soft ground; late to hurdling and stamina could be an issue over this trip.

Cartonne
Front-running chaser who can go clear in his races; last two runs have been poor and he bled from the nose on latest; carries risks but he'd be dangerous if this switch back to hurdling sparks a revival.

Largy Spirit
Fifth in a point and sixth in a bumper in Ireland, wearing a tongue-strap on second occasion; bred to stay well; also declared for the 2.10 Fairyhouse.

Getaway Frankie
Modest form in bumpers in 2024, one-paced fourth at Kelso (good) on latest; bred to be suited by this step up in distance, so it's not out of the question that she'll make an impact on today's hurdling debut.
