Contacto (G)
Useful middle-distance stayer on the Flat for Andrew Balding. In need of experience when fourth of 13 on 2m Newbury hurdle debut 17 days ago. Open to progress.

Fouroneohfever (G)
Useful handicapper on Flat (stays 12.5f) for George Boughey. Would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong now hurdling for Ben Pauling.

Night Ride Home (G)
Modest form in 2 bumpers and completed start over hurdles. Looks more one for the longer term.

Sinnatra (G)
FAV
Bumper winner for Paul Nicholls last season. Has shaped with plenty of encouragement when second in a pair of 2m Newbury maiden hurdles for new yard this term and he's the one to beat here with further progress likely.

Nelson Gate (G)
Fair maiden on the Flat (stays 1½m). Translated that level of ability to hurdles when 10 lengths second in Fontwell juvenile (good to soft) in November but well beaten at Newbury since. The cheekpieces worn on those occasions are now left …

Caoilin Quinn | G & J Moore | 4 | 67.6 kg |

Pourquoi Pas Papa (G)
Promising second in juvenile hurdles at Clairefontaine in June and, following a €200,000 sale, over C&D 4 weeks ago. Another bold show is likely.
