Okavango Delta
Dual C&D winner who found only one too good back over 2m here last month (good to soft) on his first sighting since July; the return to further is an obvious plus; chance.

Mountain Molly
Perth novice hurdle winner who was better again on her handicap debut there (2m4f, soft) last time, finishing a clear second behind the favourite; won her only point and connections are evidently keen on getting her over fences; much respected.

Kadjar Des Mottes
Unable to win over hurdles (0-5) but this point winner was challenging when falling two out on his chase/handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m5f, soft) four weeks ago; same mark here and a likely contender.

Carcaci Castle
Should be well handicapped but this year has been a struggle and he's now only 1-11 over fences; others options look safer.

O'Faolains Glory
1-22 over hurdles and now 2-9 over fences after making most of the running to score over C&D (good to soft) last month, when she didn't have it all her own way up front; 4lb higher with Conor Rabbitt again taking off 5lb; in the mix.

Benefit Ben
Dual hurdle winner who got off the mark over fences at the third attempt, in a 2m7f handicap here two weeks ago (soft; blinkers returned); quick enough for this trip and a 5lb rise isn't the end of the world.

Scots Poet
Won four times over hurdles but remains a maiden chaser (0-7) and will need to step up on his three efforts since a break.

Nights In Venice
Coming on two years since his sole win, in 2m4f handicap chase at Ayr; tailed off recently in both starts (chase/hurdles) after wind surgery.
