Three-time winner on the Flat on good/good to firm ground; some useful runs in defeat over hurdles; something amiss over hurdles last time; started Flat campaign with a good run over 1m4f at Leopardstown.

Three-time winner on the Flat on good/good to firm ground, rated 90; some top runs in defeat over hurdles; beaten a short head at Navan in September and third behind the classy Talk The Talk at Limerick next time; soft ground likely against him at Cheltenham in November; positive return to action on the level at Leopardstown last time when second; big player.

J: Miss Georgie Benson

T: William Durkan

Twice a winner over slightly shorter in Bahrain winter before last; bought for 55,000gns last summer and campaigned over hurdles so far by new connections notably touched off in Navan maiden (yielding), too keen and didn't get home on soft at Cheltenham when last seen in November; yard going well, not one to rule out.

Magsood

9st 10lb

J: Ray Dawson

T: Roger Varian

Serial hard puller who again over-raced back at 7f in a second-time hood latest; that was a decent effort all told, considering he hit traffic at a key stage, and he's well up to winning this if he's more amenable; therein lies the gamble.

J: James Doyle

T: Roger Varian

Sole win in five starts came in a 7.5f maiden at Beverley last August; keen-going tendencies have been evident from the start and they're not going away judged on his run in Haydock's competitive Silver Bowl; could yet turn a corner but reservations for now.

J: Ray Dawson

T: Roger Varian

Won at Beverley (7.4f, good to form) last August on third start and runner-up in Carlisle novice (1m, good to firm) the following month; the hood (worn last time) is left off today and he can race freely, while he's untested on slow turf, but he's in good hands to progress and is not ruled out.

80,000gns yearling by Saxon Warrior; half-brother to five winners; 9-2 for a Newmarket maiden on debut (7f, good) but was a well-beaten ninth of 12 beaten over 12l; clearly better was expected and is down in grade.

9st 7lb

J: Oliver Searle

Has a patchy profile but he hasn't been with current yard for long and he won at Bath (1m6f, good) last month; only sixth of seven here (2m) last time but he ran well for a long way and was beaten less than 4l; still looks on a workable mark and he could make a bold bid back in trip.

T: David Thompson

Placed on her first two starts over hurdles at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) and Market Rasen (2m, good) but failed to build on that when well beaten on handicap debut at Fakenham last month, where the 2m4f may have stretched her stamina; a 3lb drop helps, but she still has something to prove.

Lowly rated Flat maiden; has taken pretty well to hurdling this spring, making the frame at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) and Market Rasen (2m, good), but does not look obviously well treated for handicap debut.
