Completed a hat-trick when winning over C&D on his penultimate outing but proved a disappointment over an extended 1m2f a week later. One to note despite that latest effort.
Five race maiden including three outings in maiden company on the Flat. Interesting to see how he fares on handicap debut.
Winner twice here in winter 2015 but sole success since then came in a handicap chase. Races off a mark 6lb lower than for his latest Flat success.
Victorious three times including over this trip at Wolverhampton in March 2015. Out of form over much shorter distances of late and he is likely to fare better back up in trip.
Seven race maiden but put in her best effort this year when finishing fourth in first time cheekpieces (absent today) over 1m2f at Beverley (good) last time out. Debuts for a new yard today.
Fair fourth over this C&D on her penultimate outing but finished well beaten over hurdles last time out. Interesting to see how she fares in this contest.
Ten race maiden and ran well to finish runner-up on his final outing for Harry Dunlop in a 1m2f handicap at Yarmouth (good) in October. Wears a tongue tie for the first time on debut for this yard.
Well beaten in three hurdles outings since finishing a good fourth over C&D in July. Races off a 3lb lower mark today and is an interesting runner today.
Disappointing since finishing fourth over 1m2f at Roscommon (heavy) in August. Needs to return to form if she's to figure on debut for this yard.
Maiden after six starts and finished well beaten when making her handicap debut over C&D a month ago. Wears blinkers for the first time today.
Struggled in the main including when finishing fourth in a 1m2f claimer at Fairyhouse (good) in June. Making her first appearance since and debuting for a new yard stepping up in trip today.
Career best effort when finishing fourth over C&D a month ago. Races off a 5lb lower mark today and may surprise a few better fancied rivals in this contest.
Ran well to finish fourth over an extended 1m2f here on his penultimate outing. Fair effort in finishing seventh since and one to note upped in trip off a mark 9lb lower than when initially assessed.
Maiden after 11 starts and put in one of his better efforts when finishing third over C&D a month ago. Held since and wears blinkers for the first time today. First reserve.

SBRAASE has dropped significantly in the weights following a number of disappointing efforts over much shorter distances than today's 1m4f trip. The selection races off a mark 20lb lower than for his most recent victory and with his best form coming over today's distance he can take this with Ben Rumson, a disappointment when bidding to complete a four-timer last time taken to chase him home. Frozen Moon can claim third on his first attempt at this distance.
