Bob Bob Ricard
Record of 3-6 over fences; only beat two rivals for the last of those wins (2m) but he ran well in a useful chase at Newbury a month ago (2m4f, good) and this is easier than that; respected.

Alien Storm
Had a blip two runs back but otherwise consistent since returning from a break and was a clear second last time at Chepstow (2m, good); solid candidate off an untouched mark.

- Harry Skelton / D Skelton

Le Fauve
Six-race maiden but was placed in a Listed hurdle early last season and shaped encouragingly in a good race on his reappearance; disappointing when only 13-8 for a maiden hurdle last time (after wind surgery) but reportedly bled from the nose; has something to prove on ground this dry but has to be of interest on chasing/handicap debut.

Flamelco
Two chase wins this season, on good and soft ground; reportedly bled from the nose when second at Ffos Las (good to soft) where he kept responding for pressure; this does look a better race, however.

Tactical Affair
Maiden hurdle winner in Ireland; beaten between 11l and 17l in four handicap chases for his current yard and was no better for cheekpieces last time; the handicapper is doing his bit for the cause but others appeal more.

Jolyjump
Worryingly inconsistent but has won over fences (1-6) and he steadied the ship with a second at Southwell a month ago (2m, good to soft); won't be far away with a repeat of that and the cheekpieces are new.

Miss Fedora
It's not ideal being 4lb out of the weights but she's twice won convincingly over C&D this year and looks sure to give her running once more; gets on well with Ellis Collier.
