Bardenstown Lad
Won a point and a Fakenham hunter chase in February before making no impact in the big hunter chases at Cheltenham and Aintree (behind when unseating); found no fluency and was well held when falling at Stratford (2m6f, good); comes with risks on the back of that effort but this is a modest contest.

Knockmoylan
Point winner in February before outclassing his sole rival in a hunter chase at Exeter (3m, good); 50-1 and ran accordingly at Cheltenham's recent hunter chase meeting; at least he's in some sort of form and should make presence felt.

Ballydesmond
Won a maiden hunter chase in Ireland but that was two years ago and it's been a struggle in four 3m points this year (hooded for the last three); tongue-tie now returns.

Cockspur Balla
Beat three rivals in a point last month (3m, good to firm) but that was his first success in that scene at the 21st attempt.

Gateau De Miel
Quite useful for Henry De Bromhead, winning over hurdles and fences; however, he hasn't been pulling up any trees in this year's points.

Montanna
Guaranteed stayer but he's nothing like as good as he was and questionable what he achieved when second in his final point, after which he was tailed off at Cheltenham.
