Laganside (IRE) Won similar contest at Perth in May, but has been well below par for no obvious reason on last two starts.
Jokers Charm Course winner over 2m in December, but is effective over this longer trip too; close second to Cumbrian Challenge at Sedgefield recently.
Chergan (IRE) Has won twice over course and distance, including last time out when he beat Sunuvugun by 10l; in form and has solid claims.
Briano (FR) Second to Welsh March at Ayr last time; well behind Chergan on this course in January but gets hefty weight pull now.
Danbys Gorse Won similar race to this at Wetherby in May; well beaten on last few starts.
