Horn Cape
33-1 and never figured at Kelso in December on his first run since last May; last season he was a huge improver, with this race one of four victories; high in the weights now but this mark isn't impossible; could easily stage a revival.

Lost his way for Gordon Elliott and was 100-1 when pulled up at Aintree on his debut for this yard.

Salsada
40-1 and ran accordingly in a Grade 2 last time; her earlier Sedgefield wins were over 2m4f and in a lower grade, and she's 6lb higher than for latest; others preferred.

Jericoacoara
Not the easiest to assess having won a French hurdle nearly two years ago and also placed over fences there; trip/ground fine for this British debut; will enter the equation should market vibes bode well.

Bareback Jack
Win three novices on the bounce four winters ago before finishing fourth in a Grade 2; returning from an absence of 1395 days when showing little in a Haydock handicap two months ago; now has questions to answer.

Imperial Data
Has won four of his seven races since undergoing a wind operation and latest Hexham defeats, with cheekpieces added, were no backward steps; the removal of headgear is no bad thing but a lengthy absence might be.

It's All About You
Progressive stayer on the Flat last year and hit the ground running over hurdles with two comfortable wins here (good to soft) and at Catterick (soft); came up short on handicap debut but still ran well and stable remains in form.

Had some really smart hurdle form two winters ago but offered little in four runs for Christian Williams and now with another new yard.

Big Boy Bobby
Flat/hurdle winner; went down narrowly at Kempton (2m, good to soft) on his return from an absence and a late mistake didn't help; a 57-day break should reduce any chance of a 'bounce' and he's on the shortlist.

Ashington
Well beaten on the Flat and over hurdles since returning from a break; only 2lb higher than for September's win at Kelso but this ground might be too slow for him.

Bust A Move
Fairly useful Flat racer who won easily on his hurdling debut at Catterick (good) and finished well for third on soft at Wetherby; entered in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham and looks interesting with his age allowance.
