Divet Hill Won over the shorter trip of 2m at Perth last time, but a versatile performer and should be capable of defying 11st 12lb to go well today.
Orange Order (IRE) A course specialist over hurdles (winning five times); unlucky last time out at Southwell when fell five out; usually runs sound races and would have a serious chance today.
Alena H Banks Readily opposed on form shown so far.
L S Lowry (USA) Has a string of seconds to his name and is yet to win a chase; decent form over hurdles and only beaten 1.75l by Master Beveled on last outing; has a serious chance.
Multi Franchise Modest runs in chases so far; best run when third over 2m4f at Market Rasen in August; others preferred.
Paddington Jones (IRE) Poor fourth at Cartmel last time; finished fifth in race won by Orange Order at this track in June.
Primitive Way Primitive Rising gelding; has had 12 point-to-point starts, his total career wins being three; last success was back in 1998 though; hard to fancy.
Slasher Jack (IRE) Made mistakes on his chasing debut at Perth in the race won by Divet Hill; needs to improve his jumping to be in with a chance here.
Victor Laszlo Second to Divet Hill at Perth, but a disappointing subsequent run; if he runs up to his Perth form would have place chances.
Dissington Me Very moderate form; hard to fancy.
Farebit Readily opposable as form is moderate; best run was at Perth in May when third to Askrigg Venture.
