Two from 13 at the track and landed a 7f handicap earlier in the month off a 7lb lower mark. Another bold show looks likely.
Dual C&D winner from three starts over the combination, the latest of which came in September off a 6lb lower mark. Can go well but may find one or two better suited to today's conditions.
Sole win from three starts here came over 7f 12-months ago off a 6lb higher mark. Beaten but not disgraced since and is not easily discounted here.
Six-time C&D winner from 26 starts at the venue, the latest of which came in February off a 6lb higher mark. Victory here last month over 1m2f puts him in the mix.
Has hit the frame over C&D previously and recent form has confirmed the gelding in need of a change of luck. Sure to give a good account of himself once more.
Victorious on three occasions from 14 C&D starts. Not seen since July and entitled to need the run on return to action here. Worth a market check.
Failed to build on an impressive win over this trip when finishing 12L adrift of the winner at Kempton in August for trainer William Knight. Looks a tall order on stable and handicap debut in this company.
Dual winner over 7f here in October but well held off her new mark over C&D last month. Holds place claims.
Handicap debut for five-race maiden who finished second of 12 beaten a little over 3L here last month. Needs to improve on even her best form to land a blow in first-time blinkers.
Dual winner from five starts over C&D including when last seen in May landing a claimer by 2¾L from Elusive In Paris. Has the form to make a bold bid.
Winner of a 7f Redcar contest in August 2017, the fillies only success in 12 starts for Kevin Ryan. First time tongue-tie unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.
Useful 110 handicap hurdler who was well held on sole appearance here 12-months ago. Watching brief on stable debut.
Distance winner of a Gowran Park claimer when last seen in September on good to firm ground when in the care of Ger Lyons. Makes stable and AW debut here.
Won back-to-back races at Ffos Las and here over 7f in September but has been largely out of sorts on three starts since. Could be on a dangerous mark.

Six-time C&D winner from 26 starts, RECKLESS LAD can take advantage of his slipping mark and add to the fine record of the yard in December at the track in the last three years. Fellow C&D winner, Alfirak can emerge as the biggest danger from a yard who like a winner at Dundalk this month, while Sheisdiesel and Pulsating are capable of hitting the frame.
