Cruz On Ted showed some potential when fourth at Sandown in November but has to give weight to Nick Gifford's mare OLD DREAMS. She stayed on well to take third place in soft ground on last month's debut at Cheltenham and can find enough improvement to open her account in this. Hollow Penny showed enough at Towcester on his introduction to suggest he can also figure but Shine In Time and Megastyle have plenty to find. John Gully is related to a couple of National Hunt winners and makes more appeal than fellow newcomer Come On Laurie.
