Grand Albert
Winning pointer who has shown steady improvement in each of his hurdle starts and comfortably made all over 2m3f (soft) here four weeks ago; has plenty of stamina in his pedigree and unlikely that he's reached anything like his limit.

Haiti Couleurs
Only blip so far over hurdles came in a Grade 2 and he made light work of his opposition in a 2m7f heavy-ground maiden at Chepstow a month ago; beat a horse who had been consistent in handicaps; major player.

Heros De Romay
Not at his best on handicap debut last time in January but had been coming along nicely until then, winning a Chepstow maiden and finishing third under a penalty at Wincanton; bred to improve with his racing and for this longer trip.

Illico De Cotte
Irish point winner; form figures of 221 in maiden hurdles (2m3f-3m1f) and the heavier defeats have come in a Grade 2 and last time when finishing weakly on handicap debut (3m1f, good; first-time cheekpieces); plenty to like at this level if returning to his best.

Galassian
Has been a long-time absent but still interesting as this winning pointer was easily best of the rest behind a now 141-rated horse in a 2m7f good-ground maiden at Worcester in October 2022; heed market signals.

Industrialist
Beaten 9l in a soft-ground Perth bumper 12 months ago but has pulled up in both hurdles at Aintree (2m1f, heavy) and Ludlow (2m5f, soft); now has some questions to answer.

Record High
Bumper winner more than two years ago; has had some lengthy breaks already in his career and has yet to offer much over hurdles.

Top Kap
Outpaced and beaten 22l when favourite for an Exeter bumper and fared no better on his switch to hurdling at Lingfield (2m3f, good to soft) when easier to back at 16-1; reservations for now.
