Orderoftheday (G)
Point winner who was runner-up both starts in bumpers last season and made a successful return/hurdles debut in a Bangor novice (16.7f, heavy) in November. Turned over when odds on next time but he may do better now upped in trip for this …

Locquirec (G)
[T]
Made the frame all 3 starts over hurdles in France for Francois Nicolle. Perhaps needed the run when sixth of 13 in a first-time tongue strap (retained) on debut for new yard in 2m Ayr maiden but his mark for this handicap bow doesn't look…

Warriors Destiny (G)
£42,000 buy from the Irish pointing field who shaped like a stayer on bumper/hurdle debut and took a step forward when third behind a subsequent winner at Warwick (21f, soft) last month. Could take a step forward now handicapping, provided…

In The Age (G)
FAV
£100,000 Irish point recruit who made winning start for new connections in Southwell bumper last winter. Off the mark at third attempt in this sphere when landing a Catterick novice (19.3f, good) on New Year's Day and he should have more t…

Galassian (G)
Failed to make his mark over fences after winning a Bangor maiden hurdle last season. Return to this sphere didn't have the desired effect in a C&D handicap on New Year's Eve and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Gege Ville (G)
Opened hurdles account at Haydock in December 2024 and followed that with a solid second at Ayr 2 months later. Proved he retains all his ability when third of 9 returned to Haydock (24.3f, good to soft) on his seasonal reappearance and he…

Codetalker (G)
Maiden pointer who opened Rules account at the fourth attempt when staying on well to land a 6-runner handicap hurdle at Fakenham (2m, soft) last month. 5 lb rise could be enough to anchor him in this more competitive race, though.

Lucky One (G)
Would have a serious chance off this mark if close to his best but he's none too reliable and hasn't won on these shores for the best part of 5 years.
