5/1 |
Roaring Home
Won Exeter maiden (2m, good) on hurdling debut in October but has not kicked on since; beaten about 25l (albeit in better race than this) when fifth of seven on last month's handicap debut at Kempton (2m, good to soft) and clearly needs to do better here.

6/1 |
Lady Babs
Veteran who is probably best known as a Market Rasen specialist but looked as good as ever when scoring by over 7l over C&D (good to soft) three weeks ago; now bids to complete a hat-trick; respected in current form.

Bellbird
Largely consistent since her Ludlow novice win (2m, good) last May and ran better than finishing position suggests when sixth at Bangor (2m, soft; first-time cheekpieces) last month, where she made a bad jumping error four flights out; might be the answer.

Holly Bird
Not beaten far when fourth of seven behind useful winner on hurdle debut at Ayr (2m, good to soft) in October but both runs this year (2m4f/2m3f, soft) have been very disappointing; drops back in trip for handicap debut; may still have potential but others have much less to prove.

She's A Rocca
Out of form in early part of this season but returned from break with good effort at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft), travelling well before succumbing to a much-improved rival; remains on a good mark; major player.

- Joto
- Danny Mcmenamin / Paul Collins

Joto
Yet to build upon mildly encouraging hurdle debut in November but remains unexposed and has a lowly mark for this handicap debut; could have a say.

Mullins Cross
High-mileage 9yo who had modest hurdling strike-rate when trained in Ireland and was well beaten on last month's stable debut; fared better when keeping-on fourth behind Lady Babs over C&D a few days later but still makes only limited appeal.

3/1 |
Milajess
0-22 over hurdles but came second on consecutive outings last month, latterly at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft); will play another significant role if change of headgear has any positive effect here (usually visored).

80/1 |
Lunar Rocks
Lowly rated Flat maiden who has not shown a great deal on her three hurdling starts this season; 7lb out of the weights for this handicap debut; significant improvement required.
