7/2
Useful 21f winner over hurdles at his best. Has been much more miss than hit in recent years, but got back on track in a refitted visor when third at Fontwell (19.5f) last month.

9/2
Ex-pointer who made it 2-2 over fences in blinkers in 6-runner handicap at Leicester (20.2f) 23 days ago. That race felt apart, but he was still a very worthy winner and could progress further.

6/1
Dual novice hurdle winner last term. Has been disappointing so far this season, but did hint at a revival after 3 months off at Huntingdon last time. His task is to now build on that.

5/1
Fair maiden hurdler who stepped up on his reappearance run when sixth of 11 in 23.9f Taunton handicap in November, though that was a muddling affair. Tries chasing now and improvement required.

Signed off last season with novice hurdle win. Encouraging return/chase debut when second at Kempton but below par twice since, including on the back of a wind op/break last time.

11/1
Fair winner over hurdles who showed an aptitude for chasing when at Hereford a year ago (fourth past the post but subsequently disqualified). Off since but should still improve.

15/2
Fair maiden hurdler who ran no sort of race when pulled up at Wetherby on final outing in November. Makes chase debut now after a break, but others more appealing.

Eragon De Chanay (7/2), Rock On Rocco (4/1), Somekindofstar (9/2), The Newest One (5/1), Do Wanna Know (6/1), Rock On Tiger (15/2), Delight Of Dubai (11/1)

Verdict

The race fell apart around SOMEKINDOFSTAR at Leicester, but he was still a very worthy winner and could well have more to offer as a chaser, so he's taken to notch another win. Eragon de Chanay got back on track in a refitted visor at Fontwell and may pose the biggest threat.
