Bags of stamina in his pedigree and scored well on debut at Wincanton. Has to concede weight all round but proven in the conditions and shouldn't be over looked.
Ran well in a point-to-point but trainer yet to have a winner in a bumper and he looks opposable on that basis alone.
French recruit for a trainer who does well with these sorts and has a fine record in bumpers, particularly at this course (31.58%). Conditions shouldn't be a problem when assessing his pedigree and any market support would be hard to ignore.
Ran well on debut at Newton Abbot and provided he's ready to go after an absence he should be competitive once again for connections who do well at this course.
Very green on debut and went off at 20/1 before running out. Needs to prove he's no worse for that experience and may be best watched for now.
Showed very little on debut and yard have a low strike rate in this sphere. Hood reached for and probably best watched again.
Unbeaten in three point-to-point starts although did bomb out in between those runs in an Irish bumper. Made a promising start for this yard when runner-up at Warwick last time and with stamina assured, he may prove hard to pass.
Trainer has a 20% strike rate in this sphere in the past 12 months and this son of Martaline cost connections €48,000. Yard in form and betting should prove informative for a shrewd stable.
Trainer's only bumper winner who came good at the second time of asking when winning a similar contest at Doncaster last time. Not certain to handle the slower ground but not one to rule out.

Talkischeap (7/2), Sgroppino (7/2), Sam Brown (9/2), Dame Rose (9/2), Call Claude (7/1), Another Stowaway (7/1), Chef Des Obeaux (8/1), Call Me Sid (14/1), Vado Forte (14/1), Spider's Bite (28/1), Have This For Now (33/1), Sunshine Mountain (50/1), Hugo's Reflection (66/1)
CHEF DES OBEAUX represents a trainer who has a fine record in bumpers at this course and he does well with his French recruits. Hugo's Reflection may be able to outrun his odds for a yard that does well in this sphere while any market support for Call Claude would be significant for a yard that do well in this sphere (20% strike rate). Talkischeap improved plenty from his first start last time and may be capable of progressing again.
