Shabalko D'herm (G)
£140,000 recruit after easily winning Irish point and he went 2-2 in novice hurdles this winer at Uttoxeter and Bath. Faced a stiff task when last of 5 in Sandown listed hurdle last time but in the mix back in these calmer waters.

Baron Noir (G)
FAV
Useful dual bumper scorer who has taken very well to hurdling, building on Warwick second when going one better at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) last month. Had a bit in hand there and looks capable of better again. Player.

Kocktail Bleu (G)
Placed both outings in bumpers and made a winning start over hurdles in 2m2f maiden at Fontwell in November. Perhaps stretched by 20.5f trip when only fifth at Newbury later that month so better expected returned to 2m.

Swingin Safari (G)
Useful bumper winner who got off the mark in this sphere in 18-runner at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 25 days ago, staying on well. Open to improvement and very much one to consider.

Can U Feel It (G)
[H]
Made frame in an Irish point but well held in bumper/novice hurdles this winter. Sort to better over further in due course.

Gambino (G)
Gowran maiden winner on Flat debut for Noel Meade in April and he ran a cracker when runner-up in 1m4f Flat handicap there 4 months later. Rates an interesting prospect now going hurdling for top yard.

My Fortune (G)
Son of Milan who beat just one in 2m novices at Sandown and Leicester in November. Fell first at Newbury 24 days ago so not easy to make a case for.

The Egyptian Ginge (G)
[H]
Fair form in bumpers last season. Well held in a useful Cheltenham conditions race and Haydock Grade 2 since switching to hurdles but he must enter calculations now his sights are lowered.
