Born At Midnight
Four-time chase winner (once here); well beaten in last month's Southern National at Fontwell but will find this race easier and has claims if judged on his third off today's mark at Hereford (3m1f, good) in October.

Redbridge Rambler
Returned from break with two respectable runs this autumn (2m4f/3m1f) and is now back on same mark as for clear win at Chepstow (2m7f, good) in March but confidence in him would be higher on good or faster ground.

Shot Boii
Too inconsistent to rely upon and needs to bounce back from a disappointing seasonal debut but is on a good mark, even before Rian Corcoran's very useful 10lb claim is considered; might be worth chancing.

Anytrixwilldo
Won four-runner contest in first-time cheekpieces at Taunton (3m4f, good to firm) in April but has very mixed record over fences and was pulled up on latest outing; others preferred.

Edgewell
Pulled up over hurdles on last month's stable debut but battled on well from poor position for close fourth behind School For Scandal in Windsor chase (3m, good to soft; first-time blinkers) on latest outing; has possibilities here if new jockey Beau Morgan can keep him motivated.

School For Scandal
Held on by a neck at Windsor (3m, good to soft) last month and is now 5-33 over fences; might be a shade vulnerable off career-high mark here but this C&D also suits him.

The Big Reveal
Came good with ready win on seasonal debut at Lingfield (2m7f, good), despite Joe Anderson losing his irons on the run-in; could not lay a glove on all-the-way winner when second of four at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) ten days later but further progress remains possible.

Tuscan Rose
Ended last season with Ffos Las hurdle win (3m, good to soft; wore cheekpieces) off today's mark but lacked fluency and was well beaten in both chases this autumn; might be boosted by the refitted cheekpieces here but it takes a leap of faith to support her.

Lightonthewing
Five-time chase winner (once over C&D); bounced back to form to cause 33-1 surprise over hurdles at Chepstow (2m7f, soft) in February, making all, but quickly went off the boil again afterwards and was pulled up (over hurdles) when reappearing last month; very hard to predict.

Spotty Dog
Thorough stayer who began this year with some respectable efforts; well beaten on last month's seasonal debut but might come on for the run and current mark is workable.

Hilltown
Won Plumpton chase (3m1f, good) in April 2024 but was remote when third there (2m4f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, effectively his first run after a long absence; cheekpieces (tried once in 2023 with no positive effect) back on here; others have less to prove.

Stopherandgo
Returned from latest break with reasonably encouraging hurdle run three weeks ago (2m3f) but does not have a compelling record in recent years; ventures beyond about 2m5f for first time under rules and sports first-time cheekpieces for this return to chasing.
