Kent De Thaix (G)
Progressed with each of his first 3 starts over hurdles, recording a wide-margin success in a Carlisle maiden (19.3f, soft) in December. Found things tougher when pulled up in Grade 2 at Doncaster last time, but could get back on track now…

Judicial Deference (G)
FAV
[T]
Point winner who confirmed promise of hurdling debut when landing a Musselburgh maiden in December. Making a quick switch to handicaps, followed up at Haydock (21.2f, good to soft) last month and he's a major player with further improvemen…

Noonetellsmenothin (G)
Encouraging second on first of 2 starts in bumpers and off the mark on hurdling debut in novice at Catterick (19.3f, good) in December. Wasn't in the same form back at Catterick last time, but it remains early days for him on handicap bow.

Wolfspear (G)
[P]
It's now 13 runs since his last victory in 2024 but has made the frame twice from 4 starts for current yard. However, ran poorly at Ayr (20.4f, heavy) 15 days ago and others are more persuasive for win purposes.

El Jefe (G)
[HT]
Scored 5 times in 2023/24 season, culminating in a career-best display in an Aintree handicap. Struggled for form last season but has been shaping up well this term, travelling best for a long way when third at Ayr (20.4f, heavy) 15 days a…

Milan Park (G)
[T]
Placed once from 3 starts in bumpers and stepped forward from first 2 runs over hurdles when fourth of 10 on handicap debut at Wetherby (19.7f) on Boxing Day. Failed to stay longer trip at Doncaster (24.4f) 3 weeks ago, but will need to ge…

Another High Five (G)
Runner-up in an Irish point and has gone the right way in his 3 starts over hurdles, doing best work at the finish when third of 10 in maiden at this course (16.2f, soft) in December. Step up in trip promises to suit as he makes handicap d…

Tread Softly Now (M)
[P]
Opened account for the season at Ayr (19.5f) in November and good second here (18.1f) the following month. Possibly unsuited by further step back in trip when fourth of 9 at Ayr (16f, heavy) a month ago, so she could be in the mix (bred to…

Grand Voyage (G)
[PT]
Had been struggling for form this season (including over fences), but back up in trip he stopped the slide when third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Ayr (24.3f, heavy) 15 days ago. Must back that up now.
