Solar System (G)
Hasn't done much wrong since venturing down the handicap route, off the mark at Fontwell last spring and winner of 3 of his 7 appearances at up to 21f last season. Off since March and has to conclusively prove stamina for this far but he's…

Court In A Storm (G)
[T]
Lightly-raced 6-y-o who made it 3 on the spin in 23f Uttoxeter novice on reappearance in October. Failed to meet expectations completed start in handicaps since so has a bit to prove at present.

Crazierthandaisy (M)
Bumper winner who made a successful return to action in 21f Warwick handicap (good to soft) in November. Pulled up at Sandown since but in the right hands to bounce back and she shapes as though this trip will be within range.

Twist Of Fatecatch (G)
[P]
Fontwell maiden hurdle winner in April and held form pretty well since, coming home fifth of 14 back from a break at Exeter (23f, soft) in November and better than end result suggests at Plumpton since. Drying ground would be in his favour…

Alan Bresil (G)
Shaped with promise first 2 starts but took a slight backward step on quick switch to handicaps at Lingfield 3 weeks ago (23f). Not yet exposed and stamina looks his forte.

Baltray (G)
Found only an improver too strong in 2¾m Stratford handicap (good) in October but in nothing like the same form at Kempton a month later, racing freely.

Cameron Johnstone-Baker | Miss E C Lavelle | 8 | 71.7 kg |

Despereaux (G)
[P]
Has gradually worked his way back to top form this season, runner-up over C&D in November before going one better at Hereford 4 weeks ago, finding extra to see off re-opposing Tzaramix. 6 lb rise shouldn't prevent a very bold follow-up bid…

Tzarmix (G)
[P]
Built on earlier promise to gain a first win for his current yard over C&D last month and arrives on back of creditable second of 7 to Despereaux in handicap hurdle at Hereford (25.5f, good to soft, 11/8) 26 days ago. Definite possibilitie…
