Luwdvig (G)
Placed on second of 3 starts in bumpers. Yet to better modest form over hurdles (well-held third latest) but may come into his own now handicapping.

| 2nd | 2 | — |
Madajovy (G)
Reached the frame in both bumpers. No impact in maiden/novice hurdles but that is likely to change now handicapping. Market support would look highly given the stable has won similar races with handicap newcomers in recent days.

A Good Yomp (G)
[H]
Left first 2 handicap efforts behind when scoring over 19.5f at Huntingdon (soft) in a first-time hood (retained) 39 days ago. Should remain competitive off 5 lb higher.

Dillon Butler | Andrew Martin | 6 | 75.3 kg |

Don't Tell Rosie (M)
[H]
Placed twice in handicaps at up to 2½m in the spring. Hasn't threatened in 2 outings this term but was left with a lot do under exaggerated hold-up tactics when fifth over 2m at Chepstow last time. Respected back up in trip.

Lorcan Williams | J Scott | 5 | 73.9 kg |

| 9th | 5 | — |
Local Derby (G)
£110,000 purchase after winning his sole start in Irish points. Hasn't cut much ice in maiden/novice hurdles in recent weeks but may do better in handicaps. One to monitor in the betting.

Freddie Gordon | C Gordon | 5 | 73.9 kg |

Katira Du Mestivel (M)
Showed plenty when second to subsequent Grade 2 winner in mares' novice hurdle at Fontwell last December but hasn't got near that level in her 4 outings since, including 2 handicaps this season. Yard continues to go well in general but she…

Following Chapter (G)
FAV
Lightly-raced sort who left the impression he needs more of a stamina test when 22 lengths fourth of 12 on 2m Hereford handicap debut/reappearance 7 weeks ago. Potential improver moving up in trip.

C Gethings | A Ralph | 5 | 73 kg |

Wednesday Addams (M)
[BT]
Fairly useful in bumpers but has largely struggled over jumps, pulling up in handicap chase/hurdle this season. Can only watch at present.

Arctic Saint (G)
[TP]
Established as a limited maiden over hurdles and it's likely the wait for a first win will go on.

Meraki Mist (G)
Still a maiden and he came in only sixth of 9 after 6 months off in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (19.5f, soft) 19 days ago. Entitled to come on for the run, though.

Brendan Powell | Dan Horsford | 7 | 70.8 kg |

Wistmans Prince (G)
[T]
Promising sort who was in control when falling at the last on his Hereford handicap debut in November. Not in quite the same form when fourth of 12 back there 3 weeks later but he's still one of the more likely types here.
