Herbiers
Well handicapped on his form up to May 2023 and he's one to watch in the betting, but he's struggled over hurdles and fences this season following a long absence, and has plenty to prove.

Hecouldbetheone
Won two in a row at Fontwell last spring (2m3f, good/good to soft) and good second there (2m1f, good) in November; below-par fifth at Taunton (2m3f, good to soft) 11 days later and Fontwell brings out the best in him, but that latest run may have come too soon and he's not ruled out back from a break in a first-time visor (replacing cheekpieces).

Typhoon Flyer
Won maiden hurdle at Market Rasen (2m, good) in November and he's since been a respectable third in his first two handicaps (1m7f/2m, good to soft/soft); those were warm races and this front-runner can make a bold bid.

Land Of Moon
Short-headed in Uttoxeter novice (2m, good) in November then won Southwell maiden (2m, good to soft); a first-time tongue-tie may help on this second handicap start but he was only seventh of ten at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) recently and needs to raise his game.

Miss Maverick
Something to prove regarding current form having been pulled up over fences the last twice, but she won three novice hurdles in a row last spring and is not written off now back in this discipline.

Diamond Koda
0-10 but placed this season in his first four handicaps (2m-2m3f, good to soft/good) and there's a good chance he'll be thereabouts.

9/2 |
Kourosh
5yo who has got better with each of his three runs for this yard, going close at Warwick (2m, soft) most recently; also effective on good ground and he shaped last time as though today's step up in trip could be a plus.

Caramelo Rapido
He's not obviously well treated off his opening mark but he kept on for a fair fourth at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) last month and perhaps this step back up in trip will unlock some improvement; not discounted.
