J: Jack Hogan

T: Harry Derham

5yo who won twice in novice company this spring before making all in a match at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in July; held in second of five there last time but that was another creditable effort and he still has potential in this sphere; key player.

Improving 5yo who won twice in novice company this spring and made all in C&D match (also on good ground) when back in a handicap last month; contests a much deeper race today but still commands respect.

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Anthony Honeyball

Probably fortunate when left clear to score at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) last month but readily followed up in four-runner C&D (good) contest ten days ago and is evidently in prime form.

10st 8lb

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Anthony Honeyball

Dual hurdle winner; proving consistent over fences and carries a penalty for Monday's 20l success at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) where he was left clear at the last; looks sure to put up another bold show, receiving plenty of weight off his rivals.

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Anthony Honeyball

Dual hurdle winner who has reached the frame in all of his four chase runs; was no match for A Little Something when runner-up at Fontwell (2m3f, good) this month but that was after an absence and he has a big swing in the weights with that rival; could be dangerous.
