Monte A Bord (G)
Bred well for the Flat but made a good start in bumpers last autumn, winning at Newcastle. This looks tough now switched to the level.

Plutarch (G)
Fourth of 10 on 1½m Wolverhampton debut in December in a race that produced winners, but beaten a long way back there a fortnight later. Returns from 4 months off now tackling turf and handicaps will be more his thing.
