An Buachaill Rua
First completion when off the mark at third attempt in Irish points; modest third in Ludlow novice hurdle (2m) since and needs improvement on that form.

Aureus
Poor claims on bumper efforts; combination of switch to hurdles and first-time tongue-tie needs to have major effect.

Broxy Music
Seems one of the lesser lights at the Henderson yard; distant fourth when 80-1 shot at Newbury (2m4f) most recently; may be more interesting in handicaps shortly.

Buckna
Successful in Irish point; placed in all four attempts over hurdles and last two efforts (2m5f/2m) have been boosted by the winners since; clear third at Southwell latest; solid claims.

Jack To Bat
Runner-up in Irish point (second attempt); both hurdles starts at Ffos Las (2m4f), better effort when placed on first occasion; that form, which has substance, entitles him to respect.

Mr Griffiths
Showed some promise in Warwick bumper but lacked fluency and failed to improve in Newcastle novice hurdle (2m4f); chance partly depends on whether he jumps better.

- Rock On Cowboy
- Tom Broughton / F Brennan

6/1 |
Rock On Cowboy
Should be suited by the return to left-handed track, having jumped that way when close third at Hereford (2m3f) last time; however, has an ordinary rating and is exposed (0-8 over hurdles).

Secret Vino
Always behind in bumper and maiden hurdle, both over 2m; new trip needs to prompt big improvement.

Sixty Plus
Goes up in distance with weak claims on his form at about 2m.
