Kazar Forez
Made no impact on recent stable debut at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) following a break but he twice finished runner-up in France (2m1f/2m2f, soft/very soft) last May/June and may appreciate softer ground than last time (which is forecast today); not ruled out.

Balcomie Breeze
Well beaten on all four hurdle starts, most recently his handicap debut at Musselburgh; however, perhaps the wind surgery will help him tap into the promise shown in bumpers in early 2023.

Lahire
In good form in handicaps on last three starts and first past the post at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft) a fortnight ago, when demoted due to interference; just 2lb higher today and could well make amends; won soft-ground maiden hurdle in October 2023 on sole run in these cheekpieces.

Little Pi
Lightly raced 7yo who won two in a row for Matt Sheppard last season; a good case can be made on that form but he flopped on his next two outings and starts out for a new yard after 345 days off.

Kellie's Dream
Beaten in the region of 10l last May/June on last two starts; however, she's now 7lb lower than when a fair fourth of 13 at Perth (2m, soft) last April and has an each-way chance if fully tuned up on her return.

Kuma Beach
Her hurdle debut last May wasn't devoid of promise but she was tailed off the next twice and pulled up at 66-1 on handicap debut at Southwell last month; a transformation is needed in first-time cheekpieces.

Admiral Fitz
Lightly raced 7yo who ran his best race when fourth of seven at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) in November on his second handicap start; needs to take another step forward today but he's from an in-form yard and wears cheekpieces and a tongue-tie for the first time; a possible.

- Inoue
- Edward Austin / Paul Robson

Inoue
He's shown very little worthwhile form in his eight-race career and is 7lb out of the handicap today; highly likely it's best to look elsewhere.
