Deerstalker
Fair hurdler/chaser when with Ben Pauling and a good-ground point winner for new connections this year; unseated rider at sixth fence on last month's hunter chase debut but was clear second in open point at Witton Castle (good to firm) nine days ago and has a fighting chance in this.

Glen Cannel
Became rather disappointing after launching hurdling career with two wins in 2022-23 season and was well beaten on chasing debut a year ago; returned from break with three good-ground point seconds this spring, though, and ought to play a significant role here.

Shantou Moon
Not seen under rules since pulled up in two low-grade handicap hurdles last summer; seemingly in much better nick in small-field points this spring but has more on his plate today.

Somptueux
Very useful chaser in Ireland in his prime; pulled up in soft-ground hunter chase on stable debut in January but 2-3 in points on a sound surface since, with both wins gained in small-field affairs; sports refitted cheekpieces for this rules return; might be the answer.
