Very few of these arrive in any kind of form so CELTIC MONARCH gets the nod by default as he's just 2lb higher than when successful at Uttoxeter in June. Chanceanotherfive won two bumpers but has made little impact over hurdles while dual point-to-point winner Towerburn has never won under Rules. Irish raider Emilyogue is another maiden who hasn't been running well though she wouldn't have been sent here without good reason, a remark that also applies to Stuart Crawford's Airdrigh, though he's yet to reach a place in 14 starts.
