Forsa Bay (G)
[H1]
Steadily progressive in maiden/novice company, second in an 11-runner contest at Newcastle (2m, good to soft) in January. No impact both starts in handicaps and hood goes on for chase debut following 7 months off.

Lord Maher (G)
[V]
Modest winner on hurdles debut in Ireland last summer but 0-9 since. However, was in the process of running well (booked for second) when departing through no fault of his own late on at Fontwell 6 weeks ago. Should stay this far.

Little impact in maiden hurdles but is bred for chasing (related to yard's Grand National winner Mon Mome) and duly showed much-improved form when making a winning handicap/chase debut at Uttoxeter on return last week. Obvious claims off t…

Not one to trust given his record and has struggled to make an impact since returning from a break.

Caro Des Flos (G)
C&D specialist who has won this for the last 2 years. Needed belated comeback 3 weeks ago but hat-trick in this probably beyond him now rising 14.

Lone Soldier (G)
Free-going sort who didn't show much for Dan Skelton and similar story for this yard. Easy to look elsewhere.

Florita (M)

Placed in points and has little form over hurdles. Big improvement needed on chase bow.
