Comfortable winner of novice hurdles at Southwell and Market Rasen since returning from a long absence and likely hard to beat as he goes in search of the hat-trick.
Useful Flat winner in Sweden but well held on completed start over hurdles this summer.
Well held on his only start in bumpers and similar story both outings over hurdles in recent weeks.
Modest on Flat (stays 1½m). Likely big outsider on Flat debut.
Fair on Flat at up to 7f in Ireland but has seen the trip out okay when third in novice hurdles last month (C&D first occasion). Ought to be in the shake-up again.
Fair maiden on Flat but comfortably held in pair of C&D novice hurdles last month. Brian Hughes up but he will need to improve to play a part.
Showed plenty of work on when 13 lengths second in Taunton bumper in February. Place claims now switching to hurdles after 5 months off.
Fair Flat winner for William Jarvis but looks more one for handicaps in this sphere based on his 2 efforts to date. Hood he's worn on the Flat before is back on.
Useful on Flat (stays 2m), although his very best has come on AW. Ought to be up to making his presence felt in a race like this if taking to hurdling.
Fair maiden at up to 2m on Flat but well-beaten seventh on Bangor hurdle debut 19 days ago. Needs to leave that well behind.
Fair maiden on the Flat in France who ran to only a modest level when sixth of 12 over C&D last month on his completed start over hurdles.
From the family of Sprinter Sacre but has been well beaten in 2 bumpers and just minor promise on her completed start over hurdles.

Sangha River (2/5), Check My Pulse (9/2), Pianissimo (5/1), Le Crunch (11/1), Cuillin (16/1), Yaazaain (20/1), Hurricane Ali (50/1), Baltic Eagle (50/1), Vexed (50/1), No Thanks (66/1), Rainbow Jazz (100/1), Figarella Borget (100/1), Owbeg (125/1)
SANGHA RIVER looks a very useful novice for this time of year and is hard to oppose on his hat-trick bid. Check My Pulse has been placed twice in similar events this summer and is likely to get involved again, while Le Crunch, who was runner-up in a bumper earlier in the year, and useful Flat performer Pianissimo are interesting recruits to hurdles.
