El Galactico (G)
[P1]
Winner of small-field novice hurdles at Uttoxeter and Plumpton in November and not discredited on his first go in handicaps when fifth of 12 at Ascot in December. Needs to bounce back from a poor run at Doncaster, though.

Immortal Fame (G)
[P]
Back on scoreboard over fences at Market Rasen in February but shaped as if amiss at Hereford since and has little in hand off his current mark over hurdles.

Jubilant (G)
Bagged a third win of a productive campaign over fences when seeing off 4 rivals at Plumpton in December. Undone by stiffer stamina test at Warwick latest and can't be ruled out back over the small obstacles here.

Passing Pleasure (G)
FAV
[P1T]
Progressed for new yard this season, bagging a handicap hurdle at Musselburgh in December before following up on chasing bow at Catterick 8 days later. Improved again when runner-up at Newcastle last month and must be of interest back over…

Ocean Conquest (G)
[P]
Capitalised on good opportunities to win twice at Ludlow at start of season and returned to form when creditable fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle over shorter trip at Warwick last month. Enters calculations.

Diamond Geezer (G)
[B1]
Bagged second victory of the season when taking heavy-ground handicap at Ayr in January. Couldn't match that form at same course latest but looks worth a crack at this longer trip. Blinkers on first time.

Campaign Trail (G)
[PT]
Progressive stayer on Flat who overcame long absence to score on hurdle/yard debut at Doncaster in November 2024. Not successful since but shaped with encouragement, back from 4 months off, when fourth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Market Ras…

Moon Hunter (G)
[P]
Posted best effort this term, in first-time blinkers, when third of 6 in handicap hurdle at Plumpton 23 days ago. Not scored since 2022, however, and others are more convincing. Cheekpieces back on.
