Fiddlers Green goes unpenalised for his easy win at Bath last week and could be very tough to beat, but he's perhaps no good thing to back up that improved performance and preference is for CLEAR WHITE LIGHT, who won on the Flat at Catterick last time and remains well treated judged on his hurdling ability. Clever Relation won on his debut last April and this reappearance run may be the time to catch him. A Gift Of Love and Waxing Gibbous are interesting handicap newcomers, while Upepo has been in good form on AW.[Ben Hutton]

All three starts on AW, her best run when second at Newcastle (1m4f) last November; wears a first-time hood on handicap/turf debut and this Frankel filly's pedigree provides hope she'll be better than her opening mark.
Lightly raced 4yo who was runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) on final two starts last year; displayed some promise on grass last May/June and could have a part to play back from a break; unraced on slow turf.
Defied absence to win on stable debut at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in January; this drop back in trip may help but he's been soundly beaten in sixth the last twice (1m4f/2m, AW) and needs to get back on track.
Won on debut at Windsor (1m2f, soft) last April; disappointing on his next three starts but perhaps first time up is the time to catch him and he returns with his trainer's horses running well; interesting.
Won 1m5f handicap at Down Royal in 2022 and perhaps she'll be happier now back on the Flat, but she hasn't really shone over hurdles this year and her claims aren't compelling.
Arrives on back of inconsistent AW campaign and losing run is up to 18, but off this reduced mark he was a close fourth at Chelmsford (1m6f, AW) recently and he's also effective on turf; might not be far away.
Kept on for encouraging third on debut at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) last August; two lesser runs followed (1m4f, AW/good) but she may be back on slow ground for this handicap/seasonal debut, which could aid her cause.
Showed promise on turf last spring (on soft/good) and was in good form on AW earlier this year; merely mid-division at Bath last time but the heavy ground may not have suited and he could be in the mix today.
Won when favourite at Catterick (1m4f, heavy) three weeks ago on his second Flat handicap start; 5lb higher today but he's still well treated judged on his hurdling ability (including on good ground); strong claims.
Hint of promise when fifth in bumper on debut (2m1f, soft) and likewise when sixth in Wolverhampton maiden (9.4f, AW) last time; not ruled out now back up in trip on his first handicap start.
Has done very well since joining this yard last October, winning three times at Lingfield (1m4f/1m5f, AW) and continuing in good form on last three starts; displayed promise on turf last spring and could be in the shake-up.
Below par on final two runs last season and well beaten on this month's reappearance at Pontefract; however, he may have needed that latest outing and is on a handy mark on last year's best efforts; chance.
Promising start to career in 2022 and remains lightly raced, but he failed to threaten on his three outings last year (April/June) and needs a bigger performance on this first start since; has left Charlie Johnston.
Won twice off higher marks in second half of 2022 and could be helped by this step back up in trip, but he has a regressive profile and others have more pressing claims; cheekpieces return (no positive effect previously).
Having tumbled down the weights there were signs last May/June that he'd found his current level; however, he's won just one of his 20 starts and has a sizeable absence to defy today.
Off the mark at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in February and back on the scoresheet with easy win at Bath (11.6f, good) last Friday; has finished second on yielding ground, unproven on softer; the significant improvement last time came somewhat out of the blue and he needs to back it up, but he escapes a penalty and is 10lb well in; tough to beat if repeating the form.
