Best Life
Back on same mark as when chasing home a big improver on handicap debut at Haydock (3m, soft) a year ago but yet to strike form after three runs this season and not proven on good ground; yard's other runner appeals more.

Kuzco
Came second on chasing debut on Boxing Day (2m1f) but two lesser efforts have followed (2m3f/2m4f; cheekpieces added last time) and he now reverts to hurdling over another new trip; still has plenty of time to turn things around but looks risky at present.

Ballyvaughan Bay
Made all at Southwell (3m, good) last spring, opening his hurdling account at the sixth attempt, but absent since a below-par run in September and has fitness to prove here.

Superior Glance
Lightly raced 10yo; made the frame in first two handicaps but was remote when second on the first occasion and her subsequent third of five over C&D (heavy) came in a tactical race; unraced on ground quicker than good to soft and remains quite tricky to evaluate.

Izzy's Grey
Creditable second for Jennie Candlish on handicap debut in October 2023 (2m5f, good) but below that form on all four starts for current stable, most recently when beaten out of sight in November.

Mersey Street
Came good over hurdles at 11th attempt, dominating from the front at Fakenham (2m7f, good) in January; did not see his race out when back at Fakenham last month but is probably still on a workable mark.

Charming Getaway
Went close at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft) in January, after a break, and was always doing enough to fend off an unexposed/well-backed rival at Ludlow (2m5f, soft; front pair clear) last month; should be fine on today's faster ground and could still be well treated after latest 6lb rise.

Uncertain Terms
Well beaten in three novice/maiden hurdles this year (1m7f-2m3f) but has lowly mark for this handicap debut and combination of wind op, new trip, better ground and new headgear may enable him to build on promise shown in Irish points last year.

Jumbo Veste Verte
11-race maiden who reverts to hurdling after three underwhelming chasing attempts; unexposed over this sort of trip and on good ground but others have much more obvious claims.
