Passing Pleasure
Lightly raced 5yo who comfortably won a handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (2m4f, soft) last Monday on his stable and seasonal debut; this point runner-up could have more to offer now tackling fences and is able to run off the same mark as last week; major player if taking to this game.

Bataillon
Made it 0-8 over hurdles when well beaten at Ffos Las last month; however, that came after a long absence and he's on a handy mark on previous form; from respected southern yard; no surprise to see a big run on chase debut.

Bridge Court
Disappointing in first three handicap hurdles but showed some promise last autunn and perhaps the switch to fences and/or the first-time cheekpieces will prompt a revival from this point runner-up; not written off.

Defence Witness
Won at Cartmel (2m5f, good to soft) in May when back over fences on his second stable start; unplaced there (3m1f, good to soft) in June but not ruled out now back down in trip on his first outing since; also effective on soft ground and he won a bumper here in 2023.

Kuriosa
0-7 over hurdles in Ireland in 2023-24 and, following an unsuccessful stint in points, he was pulled up at 40-1 at Sedgefield on his recent stable and chasing debut; hard to fancy.

Mr Mahler
Maiden (0-5 over fences) who needs to produce more than on his three runs this autumn; however, he's edging down the weights and his best performance came when second over C&D in January; not ruled out now back here.

Annie Don
She's dropped down the weights but has been tailed off on her last two starts and remains a maiden (0-4 over fences); hopes are pinned on the first-time tongue-tie prompting a transformation.
