Cooleenymore
Staying handicap winner on heavy at Exeter (chase) and good at Hereford (hurdle) in spring 2024, but compromised for win purposes off triple-digit marks since; yet to strike outside mares-only company.

Iamcelestialgift
Carlisle 2m3f maiden winner on debut in April (good) but didn't see out today's trip on his one start since; mark is no gift and this big field represents a new challenge after taking on five and three rivals.

Colonial Empire
Mostly a downward trajectory to his RPRs since January's fair comeback; error-blighted round latest was presumably not blamed on the first-time visor (retained) but he's not easy to warm to just now even so.

Summerleaze
Sharp rise in the weights followed her spring hat-trick (2m6f-2m7f, good-good to soft) and although second over today's C&D latest, it didn't rate another step forward; has place rather than win claims once more.

Alright Dai
Dual 2m4f+ winner last Christmas and about to record his best effort since when unseating last month; effectiveness over staying trips is assumed rather than proven, but the granddam did win at up to 3m1f.

Only Gossip
Buckfastleigh maiden point winner for Polly Gundry's husband Ed Walker in winter 2023 (3m, good to soft); minor promise on two of last winter's hurdling starts but still looks a few pounds higher than ideal.

14/1 |
Knightsbridge
Didn't achieve as much when dropped to 2m4f on the latest of two Hereford third places this autumn (18l behind when clear leader fell last) and return to stayers' trip makes total sense; headgear retained.

- Brave Move
- J J Burke / F O'brien

|
25/1 |
Brave Move
Level of attainment fairly well established over five hurdles starts at up to 2m4f, not yet hitting the line all that strongly; reservations, therefore, despite some encouragement for this longer trip on pedigree.

- Elusive Knight
- James Bowen / Evan Williams

33/1 |
Elusive Knight
No chances taken with initial mark despite struggles in 2m-2m2f maiden hurdles but stayer's credentials established in March's Dalton Park point win (long 2m6f, good); booking of James Bowen (8-31 at 26% for this yard, including a winner last month) can't help but catch the eye.

- H Cobden / N J Hawke

9/4 |
Square Du Roule
Masterful kid-gloves ride by Harry Cobden (retained today) to get up late on at Exeter (2m5f, good to soft) latest; 2lb worse off with close third Ask Her Out and not obviously bred for further, but confidence at a high.

The Longest Day
Trip and track look fine for this dual 3m Perth scorer, as is a mark 4lb below his last winning one; may prefer rain to stay away.

I Love You Sivola
Ground was heavy for sole win (2m3f French chase) three years ago; doubtful whether conditions will be slow enough today.

- Ask Her Out
- Jack Tudor / Mrs R Ford

7/1 |
Ask Her Out
Has returned in good heart and enjoys a 2lb pull with Square Du Roule for a just over 1l beating at Exeter latest, albeit with the latter likely having a bit more than that in hand; probable stayer of 3m and not ruled out.

7/1 |
Matchadam
Interrupted career to date but shaped fine at Ludlow (2m5f, good) latest after summer break until his jumping gave out late on and he's not been got to the bottom of yet in staying events; unraced on softer than good.

Hardy Buck
7lb well in following last week's Exeter success (2m7f, good to soft) on stable debut, for which Luke Scott couldn't claim; needs to build on that, but at the correct end of the weights to do so.

Joker Jack
Beaten at least 44l when completing during a light 2024-25 campaign; this longer trip is uncertain to rate a plus, but rider recorded three seconds at up to 14-1 at a Cornish point last weekend.
