Jet Plane
Has gradually readjusted to handicap level, following a spell in hunter chases, and scored comfortably at Leicester (2m4f, good) most recently; respected despite being on a career-high mark.

- James Bowen / H Main

Numitor
Fairly useful but has become an all-or-nothing type, with last eight appearances comprising three wins and five pulled-ups; had wind surgery (his second) since last run; comes with risks.

- Non Runner / L Wadham

Hurricane Bay
Has shown best chase form, namely two wins, on sharp/flat tracks; folded tamely in latest outing and suffered a heavy defeat in sole Sandown attempt; not the percentage call.

- Brendan Powell / J Tizzard

Triple Trade
Ran respectably last time when bidding for a Cheltenham (2m) double; remains in form, stays 2m4f and is still well treated on historical data (has defied higher marks); in the mix.

- Can You Call
- Ben Jones / Evan Williams

Can You Call
Belatedly regained the winning thread in similar event at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) last time and did it in a manner that suggests he'll cope with going back up 7lb; major contender.

Minella Trump
Well treated on peak handicap form but he's a 12yo now and seems past his best, notwithstanding a hunter chase win at Carlisle (2m5f, good) on last appearance ten months ago.
