Certainly Red (G)

Welcom To Cartries (G)
[T]
Useful hurdler and similar standard over larger obstacles, leaving reappearance behind when prevailing in a narrow finish over C&D in December. However, shaped as if amiss following month and needs to bounce back.

Sound And Fury (G)
[P]
Lightly-raced for his age and enhanced good strike rate over fences in 7-runner handicap chase at Carlisle (24.5f, good to soft, 11/2) 19 days ago, staying on well. Yard remains in good form so respected despite career-high mark.

Invincible Nao (G)
[H]
Recorded back-to-back wins at Plumpton early last year and made a successful return over a trip short of his optimum here (20f) in November. Creditable efforts next 2 starts before stiff task at Ascot latest. Can bounce back.

Bucksy Des Epeires (G)

Calimystic (G)
FAV
Left hurdles form behind to make a winning debut over fences in handicap at Newbury on return over Christmas, travelling/jumping well. Had nothing to spare at the finish that day but entitled to improve.

Imperial Alex (G)

In good form this summer, resuming winning ways at Perth. Looked fit returning from 5 months off but struggled at Cheltenham in November and off again since.

Tune In A Box (G)
[P]
Hurdles winner who has been struggling over fences this season but took a step back in the right direction when third off reduced mark at Newbury and remains potentially well treated on hurdles form.

Yes Day (G)
