Westernesse
28-1 for last month's return from 250 days off (1m2f) and ran as though the race was needed; in calmer waters this time and he's one to consider back down in trip.

Stockpyle
Four wins for his former yard, the latest at Chepstow last June off a 1lb higher mark sold for 7,000gns in October betting to guide starting out for a shrewd stable.

Chillhi
Has generally struggled on the Flat and over hurdles since last May; headgear off this time; risky.

Lincoln Legacy
Three wins from 11 starts when trained by Charlie Johnston, the latest over 7f here in November (blinkered first time; only four ran); has undergone wind surgery and changed stable (same owner) since a poor run in December; headgear off today and others preferred.

Tasever
String of good runs, including four course wins, for this yard and last week's second suggested a return to 1m wouldn't hurt; should be in the thick of it again.

Code Purple
Series of good Flat runs last year, winning twice at Musselburgh and ending the season with two runner-up finishes at the same track; well held in two hurdle runs since but should be more comfortable back in this sphere; one of two runners for the stable.

Volenti
Four C&D wins since October and he went desperately close to making it five when beaten a nose, despite having to wait for a gap, 11 days ago; up 2lb but still a major player.

Trais Fluors
Veteran who won twice here in late 2024; would have finished much closer here ten weeks ago had he not been hampered when beginning to gather momentum; chance if this pans out more favourably.
