Aegean Sunrise Stout galloper on the flat, but lacks a turn of foot and has not really shone in his outings this term. His only win so far came on soft ground at Lingfield, so any rain would aid his cause on his Hurdles bow.
Caliban (IRE) Has experience on his side but he is becoming expensive to follow and his style of running may set things up for something else.
Credenza Moment Only modest form on the flat so far and others look to have a more solid feel about them.
Desert Traveller (IRE) Needs to improve on his recent Hurdling debut at Hereford to figure here and best watched.
Hidden Lake (IRE) Poor form on the flat to-date, and would appear to have something to find with Caliban after their meeting at Southwell back in February.
Investor Relations (IRE) Another who looks to have a bit to find with Caliban after their meeting at Plumpton at the beginning of the month and is best watched.
Pickett Point Little worthwhile form on the flat, and is hard to enthuse about here.
La Maestra (FR) The Pipe/McCoy partnership have made hay with this type of horse over the last couple of seasons, and although her French form does not look to be anything special, she must not be left out of the equation of a race that won't take much winning judged on all known form so far.
Sabresong Judged on what she has shown so far she would need to improve out of all recognition to figure strongly here.
Star of Wonder Another who is yet to set the world alight on the flat and may be best watched for the time being.
