There are question marks against most of these with Ashfield's Dream having finished tailed off in both starts since scoring on his reappearance at Market Rasen in November. Chevy To The Levy is having his first run since pulling up at Chepstow in November but did beat JOB ONE at Hereford last September, though the latter is weighted to reverse that form today. It summed up Henrietta Knight's season when her eight-year-old unseated his rider at the first on his return from a break here earlier this month but he is a C&D winner and would go close with a clear round today. Indian Pipe Dream was the outsider of three when scoring at Doncaster last time and that form must be taken with a pinch of salt.
