Haas Boy
Back in good form for new stable this season, winning twice (chase/hurdle) before creditable second in quite valuable Huntingdon hurdle (2m, soft) 19 days ago; eased in grade here and remains of strong interest.

Zainy Champ
Pulled up in first two handicaps but bounced back to form with front-running success at Exeter (2m2f, soft) three weeks ago; 8lb higher here but could easily have more to offer; respected.

Aggagio
Still fairly useful on the Flat; this is his level over hurdles and he kept on well for a clear second behind Thankyouandplease at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) this month; will probably be better suited by the less testing ground here and is still on a workable mark; shortlisted.

Chicago Storm
Well handicapped on early-season form but not firing on all cylinders lately; reverts to hurdling after falling in a chase this month; swaps cheekpieces for refitted visor; would appeal more on better ground; not the percentage call.

Queenie St Clair
Fairly useful on the Flat at her best; 0-8 over hurdles in Ireland and absent since some disappointing efforts in the spring; sports refitted hood for stable debut; considered only if lively in betting.

Good For You
Runner-up in soft-ground C&D maiden in February but yet to build upon that performance; well beaten on recent handicap debut at Exeter (2m2f, soft; race won by Zainy Champ) and needs big boost from first-time blinkers.

Unextended when beating Aggagio at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) this month but had to settle for second when effectively 1lb below that mark at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) one week ago and is now 7lb above his winning mark.

Ugo Bingo
Won this race for Anthony Charlton in 2024 and has performed well on all four starts for Joe Tizzard, most recently when fifth in 17-runner Exeter handicap (2m, good) won by Haas Boy last month; untested on ground slower than good to soft but has a fighting chance if he handles today's conditions and responds well to first-time cheekpieces.

Castle Quarter
Came good in today's headgear combination at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in the spring, his ninth start over hurdles, but well below that form on both starts this autumn and the ground may be too soft for him again here.

Mach Ten
Back from break with two disappointing runs for new stable this autumn, the latter here (2m4f) in refitted cheekpieces; on a good mark now but needs to turn things around; refitted visor the headgear of choice today.

Prince Rhinegold
Responded well to first-time cheekpieces when second over C&D (good) last month but is effectively 11lb higher from out of the weights today and the slower ground is probably not ideal.

Talap
Tailed off at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) last month and now 0-6 over hurdles; can't be recommended from 13lb out of the weights here.
