50/1 |
Deep Strato
Won a maiden point just over a year ago but managed only fourth when favourite for modest Sedgefield bumper on rules debut in November and was well beaten on both subsequent hurdling starts; tongue-tie now added.

- Easter Icon
- Isabelle Ryder / G Brown

20/1 |
Easter Icon
Four-time AW winner (1m6f-2m; all Class 6 handicaps); raced too freely and showed only minor promise on last month's hurdling debut at Ascot (2m3f, good) but today's race is much easier; considered each-way.

|
- High Joker
- Charlie Price / R L Llewellyn
|
|
|
7/1 |
High Joker
Fifth foal; dam placed in bumper/2m3f hurdle; pedigree doesn't leap of the page but he doesn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to get competitive on this belated debut.

|
- Hour Star
- Brendan Powell / J Tizzard

|
40/1 |
Hour Star
With a good stable but has tended to spoil his chance with sketchy jumping and by refusing to settle, the last twice in low-grade handicaps; remains a risky option.
|
|
|
- Maryah Island
- James Davies / O Signy
|
|
|
200/1 |
Maryah Island
Well beaten in both bumpers, then refused to race on last week's hurdling debut; can't be recommended.

Prairie Diamond
Won good-ground Hereford bumper on debut in February 2023 and began hurdling career with two fairly encouraging fourths in the autumn (2m/2m3f); absent since a disappointing run in November but still makes more appeal than most of these.

- Rehill Relic
- R T Dunne / S Allwood

6/1 |
Rehill Relic
Won on pointing debut a year ago and made the frame on first two hurdling starts, more recently when fourth at Huntingdon (2m, good) this month; ought to have a significant role to play here.

- Break My Soul
- N De Boinville / N J Henderson

4/11 |
Break My Soul
Irish point winner who has been placed on all three hurdling starts, most recently when third on handicap debut at Newbury (2m3f, good to soft) last month; may not be ideally suited by today's drop back in trip but appears to have been found a very good opportunity in this modest maiden.

- Gilwen Rosie
- Conor Ring / Evan Williams
|
|
|
125/1 |
Gilwen Rosie
Tailed off in Wincanton bumper on debut in 2022 and pulled up (albeit on heavy ground) when reappearing in 2m3f novice hurdle here last month.
|

|
- Kauto Castillo
- James Best / M Keighley
|
|
|
66/1 |
Kauto Castillo
Out of a close relative of outstanding chasing Kauto Star; only 6-1 for debut at Taunton in December but jumped the first flight slowly and was struggling from an early stage; watching brief advised.

- Ocean Ridge
- Charlie Deutsch / D Faulkner

|
50/1 |
Ocean Ridge
Won a basement-grade AW race last month but was soundly beaten when switched back to hurdling at Hereford (2m, good to soft) 12 days ago and still needs to prove himself under this code.
