Senor Lombardy
0-12 over fences but has won a bumper, a hurdle and five points; creditable second to a subsequent dual winner at Wetherby in October (3m, good to soft) but an early casualty next time; contender.

Won a Kelso novice handicap in October 2023 (2m7f, soft); series of good runs after that; well beaten both starts in December when back from a break; bit to prove at present.

Ballydisco
Ex-Philip Hobbs/Johnson White; dual hurdle winner (including on testing ground) but yet to win over fences, although came close when head second at Wetherby in November (3m, good); fair efforts since; one to consider.

Veteran; has a good strike rate over fences, latest of nine wins coming at Kelso in December (3m2f, good to soft); not quite so good last time, but wouldn't rule out.

So Many Roads
Winner over hurdles here in January 2023 (2m4f, heavy); fair fourth in a novice handicap at Wetherby on chase debut earlier this month (2m3f, soft) on second run after a wind operation; should build on that; interesting back up in trip.

Wotsmyname
19-race maiden; sound efforts over fences the last twice, finishing third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) and second over C&D (good to soft); each-way chance, but stiffer task as he is 7lb out of the handicap here.
