Pyleigh Master (G)
Progressive in maiden hurdles, racing with plenty of zest when off the mark at Ffos Las in April. Pulled too hard upped in trip at Chepstow on return in December and drop back in distance should help in that regard.

Son Of Hypnos (G)
[P]
Versatile performer in Ireland for Kevin Michael Smith but probably needs a career best to make a winning start for this yard off current mark.

Eton Mes (G)
Showed much improved form to open his account on handicap debut at Uttoxeter and followed up with smooth success at Wincanton. A 6-day turnaround faced with testing ground again possibly told on him at Ffos Las since and remains of interes…

Firm But Fair (G)
Placed all 3 starts, including when third at Southwell on handicap bow 6 weeks ago, though carried head a little bit high. Remains unexposed.

Allstitchedup (G)
[T]
Showed a good deal more switched to hurdling after 13 months off (had breathing operation) when third in novice in November. Might have found next run coming too soon so not dismissed switched to a handicap after another lay-off.

Astronomic View (G)
[P]
Some efforts in defeat over fences this season and excuses for latest effort but this distance likely to be sharp enough for him back hurdling.

George Henry (G)
[P1T]
Lightly-raced maiden who is on a fair mark on the pick of last season's form but shaped as if amiss on comeback run in December so has a bit to prove with headgear now reached for.

Miss O Nicholls | P F Nicholls | 7 | 72.6 kg |

Ri Na Cuirte (G)
[V1]
Quickly back on track when winning here (23.1f) in November but needs to shrug off a poor run at Hereford following month. Change of headgear.

Sam Twiston-Davies | Ben Clarke | 8 | 72.6 kg |

| 7th | 9 | — |
Madajovy (G)
[P]
Maiden but has improved to finish second the last twice, including in this headgear at Plumpton 5 weeks ago. That form looks solid and can progress again back down in trip.

Harry Skelton | D Skelton | 6 | 71.2 kg |

Noble Blue (G)
FAV
Ex-Irish hurdler/chaser for Paul Nolan. Prolific in points prior to an encouraging second on his return to Rules in handicap hurdle here for this yard last month and switch to fences to see him in an even better light.

Mr Joshua Newman | K Woollacott | 8 | 69.9 kg |

Snapdance (G)
[H]
Lightly-raced maiden who has been in good form since switch to handicaps, placed again when second at Taunton (3m) 3 weeks ago, racing freely back up in trip. Should be in the mix again.
