Empire Park Has been improving in each of his runs this season, including a win over 2m at Perth; must be in with a squeak today.
Spy Boy (IRE) An easy winner over 2m4f on GS latest, his first success where the first time visor must have helped. Prefers better ground and if improving enough must have a chance even with his penalty.
Tortugas (FR) Won a selling hurdle last year for Martin Pipe, has shown nothing else and failed to sparkle on only run so far for new trainer.
On The Run (IRE) Won a poor selling hurdle in August, likely to find others better today.
Bobona 35L beaten by Spy Boy last time, cannot see him getting much closer to him today.
Danzig Flyer (IRE) Tailed off in all his flat races, has not been over a hurdle for nearly two years; can't see him finishing close.
King For A Day 106L beaten at Huntingdon recently, may get closer today but not close enough to win.
April Treasure An unlikely winner; others preferred.
Ella Pee-Elle Fallen, pulled up, tailed off in his only hurdle starts; can only get better.
