Romero Very tough on his day and recorded a pillar to post victory at Ascot on his first run for his new stable. Expected to have come on for the run by his trainer he may have too many guns for these if he is in the same frame of mind here.
Another Raleagh (IRE) Suited by a right handed track and is open to improvement, but will need to do so to figure strongly.
Momentous Jones Consistent performer but, on balance, he looks to have a bit to find.
Zurs (IRE) In fine form since switched to Jonjo O'Neill but he is 9lb higher than when he won at Cheltenham last time. he has the scope to overcome the rise and looks sure to go well.
Misconduct Good chance of reversing Cheltenham form with Zurs on these terms and has a good claimer booked. One to consider at a fair price.
Apadi (USA) Looks to have a stiff task and is likely to find things a little tough if his jumping is not up to scratch.
