Delpotro
Free-going front-runner who was a dual chase winner in France last spring; 0-6 in Britain but ended last season with two pretty good efforts, the first a C&D (good) third behind Fearless Action; can make a bold bid.

Clean Getaway
Won four in a row here in the autumn (two chases, two hurdles) and might well have needed last month's reappearance run at Carlisle; current mark probably demands a career-best performance but he's suited by good ground, and the return to this track is an obvious plus.

Nonbinding
Dual hurdle winner for Gordon Elliott in 2022 but pulled up all five starts for current stable, most recently when 125-1 for good-ground C&D chase last month; swaps cheekpieces for refitted blinkers today.

Fearless Action
Needs to bounced back from last month's below-par C&D run but he produced a good performance to win by 6l here in March (good ground) and is now only 4lb above that mark; a possible.

Conquer The Breeze
Failed to complete his first four chases but, from a reduced mark, got his act together on final two starts last season; nudged up only 1lb for his clear second over C&D (good) last month and has obvious claims if in similar form again.

Belle Na Bann
4-28 over hurdles; ended last season in poor form and has left it very late in the day to launch her chasing career; others look much safer.

Jackhammer
Veteran who has done most of his winning on the Flat and is 0-11 over fences; returned from break with two low-key runs last month (hurdle/chase) and needs to up his game but can't be ruled out off such a lowly mark.
