Tahmuras
Very useful novice chaser who has gone the wrong way; however, this is a notable drop in class so he may stage a turnaround.

Doctor Ken
Six chase runs have yeilded two wins and as many seconds; wasn't beaten far when fourth on comeback run at Kempton (3m, good) and has further races in him off this mark.

Bucksy Des Epeires
Beat three rivals off 2lb lower at Ascot last November (2m3f, good; fine on softer); could easily leave behind his reappearance effort at Fontwell, with his yard having found some form in the meantime.

Dartmoor Pirate
Useful hurdler who has only raced twice over fences, returning to this discipline at Chepstow where he travelled well for a long way before weakening; that was after a long break and now has a tongue-tie fitted; much respected.

His first two chase wins were on soft ground (at Leicester) and had the visor back on when a clearcut winner over C&D (good) a month ago; up 6lb for that but gets in here off a handy weight.
