Cabhfuilfungi
On the up since sent over fences, coasting home at Southwell on New Year's Day (2m, soft) before a close second at Chepstow four weeks ago; has a penalty to overcome back in novice company but still likely to go well.

Ostend
Fair winning hurdler but he's completed just one of his three chases and dropping back in trip isn't sure to suit; others look stronger.

Throatlash
Point winner in October (3m, yielding); placed in two novice hurdles at Carlisle this winter; connections wasting no time sending him over fences and likely he'll do better in this discipline; needs to if the official handicapper has him right though as he'd be 34lb better off with Casa No Mento in a handicap.

Casa No Mento
She was useful in bumpers and over hurdles (Listed winner) but this season has been tough going, admittedly in better races than this; jumped to her right on chase debut over C&D in November; handles heavy ground and could well have more to come over fences.

Miss Maverick
Won three hurdle races at Uttoxeter last spring; perhaps needed her reappearance back at Uttoxeter last month but her chase debut at Leicester 13 days ago was disappointing, jumping to her left before being pulled up three out (found to be lame afterwards); improvement required on these terms.
