Rightsaidfred Veteran chaser in good form in January, winning at Wincanton; capable of winning this under top-weight but doubts over today's surface; one or two may prove better today
Ambleside (IRE) Very consistent over a variety of distances; not disgraced recently against top opposition; could run a big race.
Parahandy (IRE) In good form this winter without getting his head in front; another bold show expected today but may be better on a sounder surface.
Zaggy Lane Has had injury problems but returned to winning ways at Warwick in February; disappointed last time at Lingfield; best overlooked today.
Ross Minster (IRE) Not disgraced behind Real Value last time out; still improving and up to winning this on Chepstow victory.
King's Banker (IRE) Returned from break with an excellent 3rd at Stratford last time; top class at his best and one for the short-list.
Lucky Ross (IRE) Lightly-raced and game ten-year-old; second in small field at Leicester last time; more to do here.
Mickthecutaway (IRE) Bold jumper who loves today's ground; no match for Ballynabragget last time; one for the short-list.
Even Flow (IRE) Top-class veteran, came back to winning ways beating Parahandy at Fontwell; ran poorly last time and maybe not the force he was
Henry Bruce Former Hunter Chaser who looks out of his depth here.
