Running de Cerisy (FR) Has been in good form over hurdles for the powerful Pipe/McCoy combination and won over fences at Market Rasen; can be expected to run well again but unlikely to be much of a price.
Farfields Prince Pulled up over hurdles on reappearance and that does nothing to inspire any confidence.
Jokers Charm Poor effort at Stratford and may take time to find best form this season; trainer not yet firing and even with the great Guest on board is overlooked.
How Ran On (IRE) Has been running well in moderate company and can be expected to put up another creditable performance; however may just find one too good here.
Porterstown Dante (IRE) Was well held in third on reappearance at Huntingdon but will be better for that run; form of that race is fairly strong and could just be the value to cause an upset.
