Hescondido (FR) Seems to have lost his way of late and got no further than the fourth at Market Rasen. Has a chance in this weak-looking race but probably best watched for now.
Glitter Isle (IRE) Easy winner of three and a half miles here in March on heavy ground. Dour stayer who will strip fitter for his reappearance at Cheltenham but may need another outing before he is spot on.
Kildorragh (IRE) Course and distance winner of a hunter chase in February but has struggled in two starts in handicap company. However, was in the process of running a decent race when unseating at Cheltenham last time and if he puts in a clear round would be a threat.
Danger Flynn (IRE) Showed nothing over hurdles last month at Plumpton, his first outing for two and a half years and cannot be fancied here.
Drum Battle Has not finished in the frame for nearly two years and is 3lbs out of the handicap here.
Influence Pedler Consistent sort but hasn't won for over two years and is 9lbs wrong in the weights here so hard to see him getting his head in front.
