Scottish King (G)
FAV
Few miles on the clock for a 10-y-o and appears to have turned a corner attitude-wise of late, winning handicap chases at Marker Rasen and Plumpton the last twice. Gone up just 6 lb in total and has to be respected in his hat-trick bid.

Killybegs Jet Lady (M)
[VT]
Irish point winner who has yet to strike under Rules but has found just one too good several times, including on 2 of her 3 previous C&D starts. Excuses when last seen in October and she could have a say if raring to go following a break.

King Of Cong (G)
[P]
Successful over hurdles for previous connections in Ireland a couple of years back and responded well to the addition of cheekpieces when runner-up back in this sphere over C&D in November. However, he has failed to reproduce that level of…

Didntgotwenty (G)
[P]
Produced best hurdles effort here during the autumn and has already established himself as a better chaser, making it third time lucky over fences in good style at Musselburgh (2½m, good to soft) last month. Up 9 lb and moves back up in tr…

Reliance Kid (G)
Went close on third start between the flags back in May 2024 but little to shout about from his 4 starts over hurdles. Has undergone a breathing operation ahead of this chase debut.

Remains a maiden following a number of appearances both between the flags and under Rules, most recently pulled up on chase debut at Ayr.

Lewa House (G)
[P]
Best effort over fences when going close in this race 12 months ago. Bids to go one better this time round off the same mark but will need to step up on this season's relatively low-key efforts if he's to succeed.

Blue Indigo (G)
Creditable third in a 9-runner handicap hurdle at Newcastle (23.7f, heavy) in January was by far his best effort to date under Rules. However, he wasn't in the same form at Ayr recently and it's hard to know what to expect of him now switc…

West Lawn (M)
Both hurdles wins came here back in 2022 and though she's a long-standing maiden over fences, she came as close as she ever has done to shedding that tag when second of 4 at Catterick (25f, soft) last month. Each-way shout.

Worth The Walk (M)
Point winner who left previous Rules efforts well behind when second in Market Rasen handicap chase last month. One of just 2 finishers when beaten 11 lengths by Scottish King at the same course next time, though, and it's hard to envisage…
