4/1 |
Tarbat Ness
Has posted form figures of 22121 in last five Flat attempts, all on turf; scored comfortably at Catterick (2m) the final time; respected assuming he's as effective back on AW.

4/1 |
Billy Bathgate
Veteran who scored four times, including twice over C&D, last year; hindered by steady pace and traffic issues over 12.5f most recently; this step back up in trip is a plus.

- A Mullen / R Menzies

18/1 |
Inspire Hope
Hurdles winner who is 0-6 on Flat; failed to beat a rival in jump races the last twice; chance depends on how well she responds to the fitting of tongue-tie and visor.

6/1 |
Dollar's Dream
Low-mileage 5yo who showed signs of improvement with keeping-on fifth at Wolverhampton (1m6f; handicap debut) most recently; may build on that effort; possibilities.

Young Merlin
Veteran who holds place claims on most of his turf form for current yard; chance of winning may depend on how well he responds to new headgear; on a long losing spell.

Tupero
No progress in middle-distance maidens (trained in France on debut) but may do better now handicapping, upped in trip and fitted with tongue-tie/cheekpieces; interesting.

- Khangai
- T Eaves / T Coyle & K Wood

25/1 |
Khangai
Not disgraced over C&D in the autumn but has done his winning at middle distances; beaten 14l in both starts for new yard, leaving a doubt over his current form.

- Arcimboldo
- Rhys Elliott / M E Sowersby

11/2 |
Arcimboldo
Eight-race maiden; form dipped last time but has posted consistent efforts (323) otherwise for current stable and may rebound, in which case he has place possibilities.
