7/1
Dual winner. Off since finishing a respectable fourth at Newton Abbot in October 2024 but the fact Harry Cobden takes the reins on his return suggests he might straight enough to run a big race.

Won handicaps in the mud at Sandown last winter and took advantage of a drop to selling company at Leicester last time. Ought to be competitive back in a handicap.

A fairly useful Flat performer who has reached a similar level over hurdles. Best effort this season when fourth of 7 at Huntingdon (2m, soft) last month but it wasn't really a performance which suggests his turn is near again.

Progressive winning 2m hurdler last term. Has been a little disappointing sent chasing this season and his hopes are pinned on a return to the smaller obstacles sparking a revival.

9/1
Hasn't entirely convinced switched to fences in recent months but was runner-up off 5 lb higher over hurdles last season so well treated if a return to timber prompts a return to form.

Ended last season with novice/handicap wins on soft ground at Plumpton and might have needed December's Warwick reappearance after 10 months off.

Showed plenty of promise in maiden/novice hurdles and was in touch when clipping heels and falling on Wincanton handicap debut last month. Can be given another chance to show what he can do from this mark.

Left hurdling debut form behind to win maiden at Southwell (2m, soft) last February. Stepped up on reappearance when 15 lengths second in Fontwell handicap in October but pulled up at Leicester since.

C&D winner last winter. Presumably needed the run when pulled up on Ascot reappearance just before Christmas but he'll need to leave that well behind to get competitive here.

Well-bred gelding who showed promise when fourth in 2m maiden/novice hurdles in the autumn and appeals as a likely improver now handicapping over a trip is bred to suit.

Easy winner of only start on Flat in France but yet to better fair form over hurdles, beaten 8 lengths when second in 4-runner Fontwell handicap on Boxing Day. One of 3 runners for his stable.

5/1
Fairly useful hurdler in France in 2023 but yet to fire in Britain. Better suggested better was expected at Leicester last time but he could only manage a well-held fourth of 7. A refitted headgear combination needs to have a positive effect.

Placed on second of 3 starts in bumpers. Yet to better modest form over hurdles, including beaten just over 10 lengths into fourth on Warwick handicap debut (19f, good to soft) 19 days ago.

Forecasts

Karton Plein (5/1), Raffles Nobu (5/1), Canty Bay (7/1), Risk It All (7/1), Luwdvig (8/1), Confinentic (8/1), Sunday Soldier (9/1), Blue Sky Dreaming (9/1), Sea Warrior (14/1), Godot (18/1), Casa Loupi (18/1), Chief Sunday (22/1), Galactic Charm (22/1)

Verdict

BLUE SKY DREAMING should have more to offer now handicapping over further and gets the vote for Alan King. Sunday Soldier is well handicapped if a return to hurdling sparks a return to her best form and is second choice ahead of Sea Warrior, who showed promise in his qualifying runs and didn't get a chance to show what he could do on last month's handicap debut.
