Walking On A Dream
Showed promise over hurdles until struggling in a Grade 2; runner-up in three points and should improve on last month's first run over fences (2m) now he goes over further; respected.

Truckers Cruising
Only his second run over fences when doing it very easily nine days ago at Ayr (2m, heavy), justifying favouritism by 6l; carries a penalty but Carl Millar claims 5lb; this 3m point winner should have no problem with the step up in trip.

Orkney Blue
Showed a consistent level of form over hurdles and not a lot went right early in the race when never dangerous on chase/handicap debut at Kelso (2m7f, soft); might be on a reasonable mark if he can show his true ability.

Halpha Soleil
Has run well here a few times but hasn't been close to his best in three runs after a break; could still run well should the new headgear make a difference.

Heeztheboy
Nearly won his first three races for this yard as it was a near miss at Uttoxeter; on either side of that he won by 15l here over 2m4f and by 13l last time at Wetherby (3m, soft); that last win came at a cost of 8lb but something has clearly clicked.

Zumbi
Won a Cartmel novice in May 2022; didn't run badly in his first two starts over fences in 2023 but was beaten in excess of 100l (off an 11-month absence) when last seen at Cartmel in May 2024; lots to prove.

The Jeweller's Pet
Dual hurdle winner but pulled up and tailed off on his two races over fences, both handicaps at about 2m4f; jumping has been an issue; tries cheekpieces.

King Of Cong
Ex-Irish; mostly disappointing for current yard, other than when second here last month; that was over 3m and today's 2m4f could be against him.
