Mr Zippi (G)
FAV
Career best when winning 12-runner handicap (17/2) at Southwell (14.1f) 8 days ago. Up 6 lb, but he's clearly at the top of his game and has to be respected in his hat-trick bid.

Jonny Peate | Sara Ender | 6 | 64.9 kg |

Moon Over The Sea (G)
5-time course winner. Creditable third of 12 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 28 days ago. Winner of this race 12 months ago and likely to make a bold bid to repeat the dose this time round.

Jack Doughty | A W Carroll | 6 | 60.8 kg |

| 2nd | 3 | 2 |
Three On Thursday (F)
10/3, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 12 days ago. Back up in trip for this tapeta debut and, like stablemate Moon Over The Sea, she has to enter calculations.

Cieren Fallon | A W Carroll | 3 | 60.8 kg |

| 7th | 4 | 11 |
Guinness Lad (G)
[H]
Eighth of 12 in handicap at this course (9.5f, 25/1) 26 days ago, slowly away. Up in trip and capable of a bold show off this reduced mark if on-song, but his best form so far has been on turf.

L Morris | N P Mulholland | 5 | 60.8 kg |

| 3rd | 5 | 3 |
Sisterandbrother (G)
C&D winner. Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f, 16/1) 9 days ago. Others make more appeal form a win point of view.
|
Lewis Edmunds | S A Harris | 7 | 59.9 kg |

5/1
|
| 5th | 6 | 5 |
Starfighter (G)
Four-time C&D winner. 28/1, creditable seventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. This 9-y-o continues to look vulnerable from a win point of view.

Edward Greatrex | D M Loughnane | 9 | 59.4 kg |

Nekazari (G)
[TP1]
Tongue strap on, first run since leaving A. Fabre when eighth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 2/1) on UK debut 25 days ago. Back up in trip and now tried in cheekpieces.

Billy Loughnane | G Boughey | 3 | 59.4 kg |

| 1st | 8 | 10 |
Krissy (M)
Winner at Newcastle in November. 4/1, creditable second of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 12 days ago. Back up in trip and she's in with an each-way shout.

Cam Hardie | J S Goldie | 4 | 59.4 kg |

| 4th | 9 | 4 |
Virtual Hug (G)
[T]
C&D winner. Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle (50/1) at Hereford (19.7f, good) 54 days ago. Latest effort in this sphere was respectable, but it's likely that he'll find one or two too good. Tongue strap back on.

Hollie Doyle | Mrs N S Evans | 7 | 59 kg |

Bloodhound (G)
[T]
Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. Visored for 1st time, eighth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (13f, AW) 24 days ago. Not easy to make a case for.

Rob Hornby | S Lycett | 5 | 59 kg |

Grand Harbour (G)
[P]
5/2 and blinkered for 1st time, last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f). Off 119 days ahead of this yard/tapeta debut and cheekpieces refitted.
