Forge Valley Lad
Was snapping a losing run when prevailing narrowly at Lingfield (1m4f) but then followed up over the same C&D ten days ago, defying a 4lb penalty without being overly pressed; only 2lb higher for this despite another penalty, but stamina for 2m is unproven.

Addosh
Three-time winner over hurdles but she was beaten 15l in a Fakenham handicap only four days ago; did win a 2m Wolverhampton handicap in October by 2.5l off just 3lb lower so she's capable.

Dark Agent
Speedily bred but kicked off over 1m2f and didn't get home over 2m on handicap debut at Newcastle, though that was better; others might see this out stronger.

Young Endless
All three wins have been here (1m6f/2m) but offered little at the track 20 days ago on his return from a break; that was over 1m4f but it still leaves him with a bit to prove now.

Further Measure
Won over Lingfield's 2m before a never-dangerous fourth to Two Plus Two over 1m6f at Wolverhampton where the race didn't go to plan from off the pace; remains of interest.

Edna E Mode
Had seven races and now on her third trainer, for whom she struggled over 1m6f at Wolverhampton last month; others appeal more.

Arch Legend
Both wins have been at about 1m4f but he was close up over Lingfield's 2m on his penultimate run; only eighth there last time but the new cheekpieces are soon removed; could go well.

Sir Joseph Swan
Infrequent winner but he's consistent in the main; however, he was behind Further Measure two runs back and was never that threatening at Wolverhampton last weekend.

- Two Plus Two
- T E Whelan / E De Giles

Two Plus Two
Off the mark at the 18th attempt at Wolverhampton (1m6f) where he had the run of things, racing prominently off steady fractions; escapes a penalty so 1lb lower here, though they did claim 5lb ten days ago.
