Briery Ann In good form last spring but yet to impress this term, however stable are in form
Knockdoo (IRE) relished the mud when scoring at Carlisle in November. has had breathing problems and perhaps best watched
Jansue Charlie Duel scorer already this season and needed run last time. Quite well weighted
King Wizard (IRE) Yet to recapture form he showed in bumper company. Ground a worry too
