Malicash
Bumped into a handicap blot when 27l second on last month's handicap and seasonal debut at Bangor (2m3f, soft); won two novice hurdles earlier this year (2m3f/2m5f, good to soft; including here) and he's open to improvement on his second outing of the season; one to consider.

Gaillimh A Stor
Third in this race (soft) 12 months ago and he may have needed last month's reappearance run here; however, he was also below his best on his final three outings last season and needs to turn things around.

Authorized Mission
Won for Chris Grant at Newcastle (2m6f, soft) in January and scored by 14l on last month's stable debut here (2m5f, good to soft; well backed); hit with 14lb rise for last time but this 5yo had bundles in hand and could have plenty more to offer for his new yard.

Disco Davis
Heavy-ground maiden hurdle winner who reappeared with close fourth in Uttoxeter handicap (2m4f, good) in October; pulled up at Bangor (2m3f, soft) since but his top trainer applies a first-time tongue-tie and he could bounce back with a big performance.

Fox's Fancy
Her jumping has been an issue on both runs this season, falling on chase debut then lacking fluency when 18l fourth back over hurdles at Ayr; she can be competitive if hurdling better today, but that's the big question.

Glen Road
Inconsistent last season but won twice in the spring (2m4f/2m7f, good to soft) and he resumed winning ways at Wetherby (2m5f, soft) three weeks ago, with a next-time-out winner in second; firmly in calculations up 6lb.

Coconut Splash
Well handicapped on his best hurdle/chase form for Evan Williams and last month's stable debut at Ayr, which was his first run since May 2024, wasn't devoid of promise; however, this 10yo needs to prove how much ability he retains and he's won just one of his 21 rules starts.

Follow Charlie
Knocking on the door prior to winning at Perth (2m4f, good) in May and he returned to form to win at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; came clear with the even-money favourite last time and this 6yo is respected up 7lb.

Displayed promise in good-ground maiden hurdles in Ireland in the summer (2m1f/2m) and again when third behind a well-handicapped winner over C&D (good) on his handicap and stable debut in October; this 5yo is very lightly raced and could take a step forward today, if he handles the ground.

Nights In Venice
Poor 1-23 strike-rate (0-11 over hurdles) and tailed off in a chase at Ayr on last month's reappearance; however, he may have needed that outing and was running well over fences earlier in the year; also effective over hurdles and he's not ruled out each-way.
