Groesfaen Lad Won Class F handicap here in October but form dropped away in following three starts; may have benefitted from three months break, but all best form has been in lower grade than this.
Jammie Dodger Has shown little in all starts this winter and seems right out of form; probably running for appearance money.
Look And Learn (FR) Well beaten on all-weather debut at Southwell over 6f; showed good form when winning Deauville conditions race over 1m 4f last summer; interesting contender.
Mi Odds Won at Southwell before close third at Lingfield last month; bit below par when eighth back at Lingfield last time; has shown best form over slightly longer distances than this.
Waterfront (IRE) Has shown little ability for long time and will be big outsider here; probably running for appearance money.
White Plains (IRE) Won 1m 2f Lingfield handicap last month and followed with 3rd to Baron De Pichon here over 1m 4f this Thursday; better back over this trip and should take a lot of beating.
Jellybeen (IRE) Well outclassed in this company and probably running for appearance money.
Satwa Boulevard Overall form well short of standard required here and probably running for appearance money.
Scene (IRE) Won competitive 1m handicap at Newmarket last autumn; close fourth to My Retreat here in November when last seen; chance if ready after absence of over three months.
Kumakawa Has been running well in Class D and E company this winter; tries this trip for the first time as he's been running over shorter.
Moyne Pleasure (IRE) Showed improvement when stepped up to 1m recently when winning handicap here by half a length; now goes over another extra furlong.
Persuade Won 1m 2f Lingfield handicap last month; beaten but certainly not disgraced on two efforts since; possibility if White Plains does not run up to form.
Jezadil (IRE) Has put in some decent efforts in selling company, but would have to improve a lot to have a chance in this grade.
