Favour And Fortune (G)
Useful and consistent sort (Scottish Champion Hurdle winner) but he's been off the track for 10 months since posting a good third of 20 in 2m4f handicap hurdle at Aintree last April. Has won off a break though so can't be discounted.

Royal Infantry (G)
[T]
Useful hurdler who got back on track after a disappointing chasing debut at Chepstow when a close last of 5 in 2m4f Windsor conditions event last month. Needs considering back in handicap company.

Charlus (G)
[H]
Fairly useful 1m2f Flat winner who arrives in decent nick over timber, in third when fell 2 out in 2m1f Clonmel conditions event last month on his final run for Willie Mullins. Since changed hands for 50,000 gns and much respected starting…

Whatsupwithyou (G)
[BT]
Veteran who resumed winning ways in 12-runner handicap hurdle at Ascot (21.7f, good to soft) in December. Up 5 lb and this is tougher so more is required.

Bourbali (G)
On a losing run but has posted several good efforts, latest when second of 5 in 2m3f Taunton handicap hurdle 35 days ago. In the mix once more from an easing mark.

Fasol (G)
[PT]
Useful winning stayer on Flat in France who is in great nick for his current yard this winter, landing Wetherby novice and Musselburgh handicap. Also fourth of 15 off a career-high mark in Lanzarote Hurdle over C&D last month so he's firml…

Hold The Serve (G)

[T]
Won sole point last winter. Well held on Cheltenham hurdle debut but different proposition after wind surgery (tongue tie also added) when landing novices (around 2½m) at Wincanton and Market Rasen since. This son of Jukebox Jury has more …

Tranquil Sea (G)
[T]
Bagged 3m Chepstow handicap in October but his more recent form is not so encouraging, a below-par fourth of 9 in 3m Newbury handicap hurdle two weeks ago. He needs to take a step forward.

Grenadier Jed (G)
Much improved for the switch to handicaps, going 3-3 on his return at Fontwell (19f) in November and posting an excellent clear second of 10 at Chepstow (2m3f) 25 days ago. Up another 2 lb but he rates a player once more.
