Saint Segal
Returned to peak form when dominating from the front at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft) in December and has been placed on all three starts since; still on a workable mark and can make another bold bid.

Western General
Thriving 7yo who cruised clear to win by 22l at Hereford (2m, good) last month, his third success this season; 10lb higher in a deeper race, but will be fine over the longer trip and needs to be taken very seriously in current mood.

Jetoile
Well below best form this season, but came second off much-reduced mark at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) in February and ran well for a long way when sixth of 30 over the big Aintree fences (2m5f, good to soft) this month; enters calculations.

Light N Strike
Suited by the return to good ground when very respectable third of five at Ascot (2m1f, good; jumped left on occasions) three weeks ago; needs to build on that performance but remains on a good mark and ought to be better suited by this left-handed track.

Paint The Dream
Best known for his heroics at Newbury but is also suited by this track; very well handicapped on old form for Fergal O'Brien but, following a long absence, has not shown a great deal for his owner-trainer this season, including when back at Newbury last month; revival needed.

Real Stone
Rewarded very positive ride and caused 33-1 surprise at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) in February but was not quite in the same form when dropped back to 2m1f at Kelso last month; may need some rain here and others appeal more.

Bourbali
Slightly disappointing at Kempton last month but has generally remained in good form since winning off 1lb lower there (2m2f, good) in October; considered each-way.

Beau Balko
Largely consistent 7yo who was runner-up three consecutive times after his Wincanton win (2m4f, good) in November; slightly below form when dropped back to 2m at Newbury last month but this move back up in trip will suit and his current mark is workable.

7/2 |
Sageburg County
Rebounded from poor performance and went down fighting when second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) last month; up in grade and 2lb higher but ran very well over C&D on both previous visits to Chepstow, more notably when winning by 3l on good ground a year ago.
