Gua Du Large
Won two hurdles and a novice chase in Ireland but hasn't been overly competitive in four chases for current yard; looks best watched for now.

Hara Kiri
Form figures of 3111 in handicaps since joining Olly Murphy on ground ranging from good to soft to heavy; defied a nine-month absence at Leicester in December and that form has worked out well; up another 7lb and drying ground is an unknown, but dangerous to dismiss.

I Wish You
All eight career runs have been on soft or heavy ground, the win coming in a 2m1f novice at Carlisle; no closer than about 11l in his three handicaps and conditions are a grey area.

Ailt An Chorrain
Won a maiden hurdle here on good ground and again appreciated that surface when making all in a Newcastle novice last time (2m4f); splitting those performances was a run at Cheltenham (highly tried) and a second behind the smart Wendigo; doesn't look overburdened for this handicap debut.

Baratablet
Lightly raced 5yo who won his maiden at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) and ran well to be third having been well backed for a Class 3 3m novices' handicap at Ayr's recent National meeting; seemed to see out the trip fine but won't mind returning to 2m4f.

Singapore Trip
C&D winner on good to soft last May and now 3lb lower; however, he needs a return to form.

Savant Du Mesnil
There's little in the way of substance to his form but connections are respected and he's into his first handicap; needs checking in the betting.

The Jeweller's Pet
Both wins have been over this far in the mud at Ayr where he was a close third on good to soft two weeks ago; no reason why he shouldn't be involved.

Artic Mann
Won over 3m2f here last May and two respectable runs afterwards; reportedly suffered from an irregular heartbeat last time; however, this trip looks on the tight side.
