Kingston Pride
Very disappointing favourite in Grade 2 novice at Sandown in December when last seen, but that was his first run on soft ground; this point and bumper winner had previously impressed with a ready win on hurdle debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) and can have a big say if rediscovering that promise.

Quebecois
Point runner-up on good to yielding and all rules start have been on soft; won by 8l on hurdle debut at Chepstow (extended 2m3f) in October before respectable efforts in Grade 2s the next twice (2m4f/extended 2m4f); leading claims if handling the ground now back down in grade.

In The Shade
In good hands and there's potential in his pedigree, but tailed off at 20-1 on debut in a bumper in December 2023 and absent since; has had wind op in interim; a transformation is needed on this first hurdle start.

Kicks And Ale
Point winner in May 2021 but has had an interrupted career since and he's been well beaten on all three rules starts; hard to fancy.
