Has Troke (G)
Signed off last season on a winning note off 2 lb lower mark at Lingfield and positive-enough start to present campaign when third of 9 at the same course in December (23f). Better than bare facts both starts since so he's of definite inte…

West Orchard (G)
FAV
[P]
Solid record over fences, winning 4 times and placed on 4 occasions from 15 starts in that sphere. Runner-up on last hurdles start at Wincanton in December and now looks more reliable than he used to be.

Fravanco (G)
All-weather winner who has raced around 2m over hurdles so far. This just his second handicap start in this sphere but stamina an unknown upped markedly in distance.

Approaching Storm (M)
Little to get excited about in 5 runs under Rules but handicaps are more suitable and she's bred to stay well.

Amalfi Skyline (G)
[H]
Winning chaser for previous yard but too free returning from nearly 2 years off at Plumpton in February and probably didn't achieve a great deal when last of 5 in handicap hurdle at this course (2¾m, soft) 41 days ago.

Counteract (G)
Dual winning chaser for Suzy Smith but hard to catch right over both sets of obstacles and has been off over 2 years. Has moved to Chris Gordon late in his career but perhaps worth a second look.

Shesupincourt (M)

Inconsistent sort who often races from out of the handicap and isn't really one to be interested in.

Simon The Seagull (G)
[P1]
Maiden who races from 6 lb out of the handicap and isn't one to rely on. Significantly up in trip in a change of headgear.
