Hidden History is only 7lb higher than at Uttoxeter where he comfortably beat an impressive subsequent winner. However, FLORIDA DREAMS is a classy operator who ran perfectly well behind a runaway winner at Ayr's recent big meeting. Della Casa Lunga and last year's winner Rambo T should feature.[Alistair Jones]

Front-runner; struggled in a Grade 2 at Doncaster last time but her form is far more convincing on right-handed tracks; only 4lb higher than for her Kempton win the time before; solid claims.
Only 3lb higher than when winning this by 3l 12 months ago and has been chasing this season, starting off well but producing a lesser run last time; can go well fresh; could well be involved once more.
On a dangerous mark, being 3lb lower than for a chase victory at this fixture last year; whether he can return to that level is debatable after this season's struggles, the latest on his return to hurdles.
Low-mileage 8yo who has won both his handicaps, the latest by a narrow margin at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft); only 4lb higher and may well progress some more; races prominently.
Has won five races over hurdles, taking some notable scalps along the way; however, finished tailed off at Aintree only recently after a year on the sidelines.
Four wins divided between bumpers/hurdles and has been highly tried on occasions; ran a solid race to finish second at Ayr (2m5f, good to soft) behind one who dominated from the outset; this 7yo was clear of the third; good chance.
Point/maiden winner; sent off favourite for stable debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) and after a wide trip he kept on well to win going away; that form looks all the stronger now with runner-up Wellington Arch winning at Aintree earlier this month; 7lb rise seems lenient.
Has generally done well since joining this yard from Harry Derham, winning twice over C&D; hasn't run at all badly in his subsequent defeats and can make presence felt.
