Kingston Narcissus
Sedgefield maiden (2m1f, soft) last December is his only win from 23 races but he did make a sound return to action when third of six at Kelso (2m, soft) 18 days ago.

Double Oban
On the up when winning four of five handicap hurdle starts last season, including on soft/heavy; down the field on his Newbury reappearance but this is less competitive and no surprise were he to resume his progression in first-time cheekpieces.

Justus
Hurdle and dual Flat winner in the mud in 2024 but well beaten on AW Flat reappearance in April and absent again ahead of this return to hurdles; the ground should be in his favour but others have less to prove.

Thereisnodoubt
Veteran who was notching his sixth win when seeing off six rivals at Ayr (2m, soft; from 2lb lower) in March; a comeback run back at Ayr was likely needed and he could fare a lot better now.

Chase A Fortune
Hurdle/chase winner who was 1l ahead when falling two out over fences at Kelso (2m1f, good) in October and showed himself none the worse when narrowly denied by Red Cadillac (good second at Ayr on Monday) back hurdling at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) last month; cheekpieces are added now; leading claims.

Hourless
Drawn a blank since a hurdle debut win at Hexham in June 2023 and weakened to finish well held on his return from wind surgery at Kelso six weeks ago.
