Olivers Travels
Won consecutive races at Worcester (2m7f, good) when cheekpieces were added last summer but had gone off the boil when last seen in the autumn and needs to have been refreshed by 133-day break.

Awaythelad
Came good over fences at fifth attempt, when upped to 3m at Southwell (good to soft; second run in blinkers) last month; did that with a fair bit more in hand than winning margin might suggest and a subsequent 5lb rise is offset by Callum Pritchard's useful 5lb claim here; leading contender.

Nothin To Ask
2-11 over fences; no longer the force of old and has fitness to prove after 112-day absence but ran well in defeat behind progressive rival at Newcastle (2m7f, good to soft) on latest outing and was given another wind op (his second) during his break.

Thor De Cerisy
Only fifth of six in recent Newbury race won by The Boola Boss but was not beaten far and would almost certainly have been better suited by a stronger gallop; lurks on a good mark but all his best form was on soft or heavy ground, and he has never raced on anything quicker than good to soft.

The Boola Boss
Not always one to rely upon but was back in prime form when making all at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) last month; 4lb higher here but good 5lb claimer Jamie Brace is enlisted; will be suited by the forecast good ground; no surprise if he gives this a good shot.
