Sinchi Roca (G)
Fairly-useful bumper performer who made a winning start over hurdles at Wincanton in January. Not built on that in 2 starts since but clearly wasn't 100% at Fontwell last time and must enter calculations here.

Famous Shoes (G)
Signs of ability on the Flat for Karl Burke but there have been very few positives to take from his efforts in this sphere so far.

Johnjay (G)
[H]
Modest dual winner on Flat (both 1m) and isn't an obvious type for jumping judged on his pedigree.

Falls Of Acharn (G)
FAV
Progressive dual winner on Flat in Ireland for Jessica Harrington and completed hat-trick on hurdles debut for Paul Nicholls at Musselburgh on New Year's Day. Well held in much better company since but is back in calmer waters here and hol…

Ettore (G)
Fair performer on Flat for Roger Varian but made a low-key start in this sphere for new connections at Newbury last month. In good hands, however, and warrants respect.

Grand Harbour (G)
Modest maiden on the Flat who ran poorly on second start for new yard at Wolverhampton earlier this month. Goes hurdling now and is hard to recommend.

Modern Style (G)
Well held in novice on Flat for Charlie Appleby last spring and shaped with little promise in 2 outings over hurdles for Chris Down in November. Joined new yard since and is best watched.

Signore Enzo (G)
Well held in 2 minor events on Flat last summer and it's hard to make a case for him on hurdles debut here.
