40/1 |
Boston Savr
Sixth foal; brother to a point winner, closely related to useful Irish hurdler Crosshill; dam bumper winner; with a good stable but entitled to learn from this debut run.

Irandando Has
Joined Paul Nicholls after going close in Listed hurdle at Auteuil (2m2f, very soft) on debut in September 2022 but this British debut has been a long time coming; had wind surgery in spring 2023; now in the care of Sam Allwood; market may guide.

Liam Mera Kai
Bumper winner who was placed on both hurdling starts, showing better form when second at Hereford (2m, good) last month; won't be far away if handling the slightly slower ground here.

Minstrel Knight
Useful Flat stayer who was probably set to finish second before penultimate-flight fall on recent hurdling debut at Wetherby (2m, soft); can make presence felt if that experience hasn't dented his confidence.

80/1 |
Our Super Six
Showed only minor promise in bumpers and was pulled up on hurdle debut in October; now sports cheekpieces; not the most obvious answer.

Shade Of Winter
Showed fair form when placed in three Chepstow novice/maiden hurdles (2m-2m3f, good to soft/soft) last season and was running well before chance-ending jumping error at penultimate flight in Cheltenham handicap last month; has a big role to play here.

Close third in an Irish point in April but did not land a significant blow in two Bangor novice hurdles (both 2m, soft) last month.

Thesoldiersminit
Soundly beaten on last month's hurdling debut at Bangor (2m, soft) and was tailed off before last-flight mishap over same C&D a fortnight ago; hood (worn for both those runs) now discarded.

This Sway
Not disgraced in two good-ground bumpers in the spring but pulled up when a big-priced outsider for two maiden hurdles last month (2m/2m4f).

Zamek
Placed in good-ground Chepstow bumper for Paul Nicholls in April and again looked promising when clear second over hurdles at Lingfield (2m, good to soft) for new stable last month; leading contender here.
