Marhaba Million (G)
[T]
Regressive when last seen in this sphere and has offered little in handful of hurdle outings for new stable in recent months. Can only be watched.

D Day Arvalenreeva (M)
[P]
Three-time hurdle winner who has performed with credit on 2 of her last 3 starts since returning to the Flat for new yard, third of 7 in handicap at Kempton (2m) 24 days ago. Can be competitive again from sliding mark.

Millie Wonnacott | Nick Scholfield | 6 | 62.1 kg |

Sea Of Charm (M)
[B]
Won 3 times on turf last year and proved as good as ever after 6 months off when edging a tight finish at Lingfield (12f) 3 weeks ago, striking for home early off a good gallop. Another holding claims back up in trip.

Harry Vigors | G Nicholls | 8 | 62.1 kg |

| 3rd | 4 | 6 |
Upepo (G)
Landed a gamble returned to more suitable 1½m at Lingfield in December but well held turned out unpenalised 3 days later and also made no impact from revised mark back at Kempton (11f) 4 weeks ago.

William Carson | A W Carroll | 6 | 61.7 kg |

Mio Amico (G)
[P]
Crucially got first run when shedding maiden tag at Lingfield (12f) in January. Ran with credit whilst seemingly undone by 3 lb rise when third over C&D latest but he holds each-way claims again in this groove.

K S McHugh | Michael Keady | 4 | 60.8 kg |

| 6th | 6 | 5 |
Majestic Leo (G)
[B1T1]
Offered little over hurdles/on Flat since joining present stable. Can only be watched with blinkers/tongue tie now reached for.

D C Costello | G Brown | 4 | 59.4 kg |

Queensland Boy (G)
FAV
[P]
Won twice on AW in spring last year and showed benefit of recent run when finishing good second at Wolverhampton (16.5f) 5 days ago, just failing. Remains 1 lb below last winning mark and that effort suggests he's ready to strike.
|
Ryan Kavanagh | Ian Williams | 6 | 57.2 kg |
2.38
11/8
|
| 5th | 8 | 3 |
Bloodhound (G)
[BT]
Winless in 25 starts and he was below form when fourth in 7-runner C&D handicap on latest outing 9 days ago. Others make greater appeal.

Nicola Currie | S Lycett | 6 | 54 kg |
