Wintertide Ran as well as could be expected last time in a hot bumper at Cheltenham after winning his only two starts previous; the one to beat today.
Gohh Moderately fancied on his debut 10 days ago and this quick reappearance is a good sign.
Merry Tina Was tailed off on only start and must improve considerably to play a role here.
Count Tallahassee Struggled on debut and hard to see him winning today.
Junior Collonges (FR) Will have improved for his good fourth to a decent Len Lungo gelding on his debut; the winner ran well on Saturday so this gelding should go well today.
Toto Taleca Will improve for his run at Sedgefield earlier this month but still might not have enough ability to take this.
Finest of Men No real promise on bumper debut; should improve for that outing but may not be good enough.
White Van Man (IRE) Tailed off on debut and has no real chance today.
