Classic King (G)
[P]
A fairly useful hurdles/chase winner. Largely in good nick without scoring last season, cheekpieces on when second of 5 in handicap chase at Stratford (23f) 41 days ago. Can't be discounted off the same mark.

Bumpy Evans (G)
FAV
Progressed well over fences last season (a three-time winner around 3m) and resumed from 6 months off with an encouraging third of 6 in handicap chase at Newton Abbot (21f) 34 days ago. Should strip sharper here so big shout.

Ira Hayes (G)
[V]
Irish challenger who got off the mark on just his second go in this sphere in 12-runner novice chase at Tramore (2¾m) 18 days ago, though he was held when left in front 2 out.

Giovanni Change (G)
Course specialist who took this 12 months ago. Posted another solid effort here when third of 6 in handicap chase over C&D 24 days ago so he's a likely player once more.
