Happy Chandler
Record of just 1-20 on Flat, the success in Class 6 handicap over 1m2f in April; form dipped last time; brings limited potential to this change of code.

Lucky Diamond
Best effort in bumpers when third at Worcester; soundly beaten over C&D switched to hurdles last time, however, and may be more interesting in handicaps later on.

Penzance
Not the force of old (one-time useful Flat handicapper) but has shown consistent hurdles form at Stratford this summer, close second to odds-on shot over 2m last time; solid claims.

Starshine Legend
Beaten about 14l in both attempts over hurdles but likely to fare better today as this looks an easier assignment and he's one of the stronger options on Flat form, which includes a win.

Bound For Glory
Scored by wide margin, albeit in weak race, at Stratford on final bumper start; finished 12l behind Penzance over hurdles there since but may do better still; one of the main players.

Delgany Headline
Represents major stable but was friendless in the betting and well beaten in Warwick contest in March; had wind surgery since; the market may again guide the way.

Earnest Belief
Record of 0-6 on Flat and 0-4 over hurdles but has largely consistent form, creditable third over C&D most recently; this race is of a similar standard; again has place claims.

Majestic Leo
Has shown poor form on Flat for current yard and remains a maiden under that code; pulled up in both hurdles attempts; enough to prove back in this sphere.

Without Burlington
Low-mileage 4yo who was successful (at about 1m4f; fair form) in last two Flat starts for Kevin Philippart de Foy, latest in October; sold for 52,000gns and gelded since; interesting, assuming he transfers ability to hurdles.
