Won a C&D handicap on good to soft when back from a break in February; excuses for lesser run last time (heat stress); could bounce back.

J: Kevin Brogan

Lightly raced 8yo who showed improved form on his third chase start to win at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) recently; also effective on soft/heavy; accounted for 13 rivals last time and he's a strong candidate up 6lb.

J: Kevin Brogan

Flopped at Hexham in December on second chase start and something to prove on the back of that; however, this lightly raced bumper and two-time maiden hurdle runner-up wasn't devoid of promise when sixth on his chase/handicap debut at Kelso (2m7f, soft) in November and is not written off.

Lightly raced 7yo who has shown a consistent level of form over hurdles; runner-up to an odds-on favourite in a maiden hurdle at Ayr (2m4f, heavy) in February when last seen; 10lb claimer is booked for chasing debut off a 267-day absence; one of three for Nick Alexander.

In the frame on all four starts, last three over hurdles; suffered from post-race heat stress when 12l fourth over 3m here last time; drop back in trip should suit; solid each-way chance
