Bank On Frank (G)
FAV
Runner-up sole start in points and immediately stepped up on modest hurdles exploits when dead-heating for second place in 21.6f Fontwell handicap on chase debut in November. Entitled to build on that and needs considering.

Good Work (G)
[PT]
Irresolute performer with just 1 win to his name from 34 career starts. Hasn't fully fired in 3 outings this season (beaten over 22 lengths into fourth latest) but he is down to a career-low mark.

Mixedwave (G)
Ended last season with a 3m Wetherby win. Returned with a creditable third at Market Rasen in November but not in the same form in 2 outings since. A bounce back is needed.

Streamsforth Lad (G)
[P1T]
Has failed to complete both starts over fences, unseating around halfway at Uttoxeter when last seen in December. Has been competitive off this sort of mark over hurdles but needs to prove he can do it over fences. Has first-time cheekpiec…

Hot Rod Lincoln (G)
[P]
Well beaten in 2 handicap hurdles since joining Nick Scholfield but ended last season with a Uttoxeter chase win. No surprise were he to stage a revival back over fences, with the booking of Sean Bowen catching the eye.

Givehimthehonour (G)
Fair ex-Irish hurdler but hasn't shown much at all in 5 runs since switched to fences, pulling up at Lingfield last time. His mark continues to fall but could only consider if backed.

Prince Cleni (G)
Three-time C&D winner, with the latest win achieved off the same mark as today. Creditable second of 6 in handicap at Stratford when last seen in August. Player if fully primed after his break.
