Centurion's Sister
In the frame all six hurdling starts, most recently when clear second of four on last month's handicap debut at Bangor (2m, good); competes off unchanged mark here and features prominently in calculations.

Scots Poet
Resurgent 10yo who led close home over C&D (good) last month and has now won three of his last four; probably doesn't have much margin for error after latest 5lb rise but must be considered in current mood.

Follow Charlie
Has slipped to a tempting mark but needs to up his game after some below-par recent efforts; gained all four wins at about 2m4f and is probably better suited by ground slower than good; others preferred.

Jolyjump
Runner-up in two chases for Gary and Josh Moore towards end of 2024-25 season but absent since heavy defeat on stable debut just over a year ago; reverts to hurdling with quite a bit to prove.

Tigress Lilly
Safely held when sixth over C&D (good) on both recent outings and has now been unplaced all six hurdling starts; not written off just yet but clearly needs to take a step forward.

Storm The Dug
Fair Flat racer who kept on from the rear for second of 14 over C&D (good) on handicap debut in April; didn't really build on that run when fifth of 12 here last month but still considered; tongue-tie added.

Malangen
Veteran who has gained four of his ten hurdle wins at this track and often builds up a big lead; needs to rebound from a disappointing effort here (2m4f) ten days ago but was in a consistent vein of form beforehand and is still on a workable mark.

Lucky In Taipan
Placed on bumper debut in 2024 for Fergal O'Brien; struggled in four novice/maiden hurdles for Max Young last year but makes stable/handicap debut off a lowly mark and it will be very interesting to see what Ben Pauling can do with him.
