Land Of Punt (3/1), Berkenshtaaap (4/1), Lheur De Gloire (9/2), Fast Work (6/1), Idaho Valley (13/2), Jehol De Thaix (9/1), The Great Escape (10/1), Beep Beep Becky (12/1), Stung By Tariffs (14/1), North Moon (150/1)

Several of these appeal as likely improvers going up in trip, chiefly LAND OF PUNT, who caught the eye when a staying-on third at Plumpton towards the end of January. He gets the verdict over Fast Work, who backed up an encouraging third on handicap debut with a creditable effort in better company last time. One of the other handicap newcomers, Lheur de Gloire, is also shortlisted.
