Tommy's Oscar
Hasn't been firing on all cylinders this season but by no means disgraced in good races, the latest a 2m handicap at Ayr he won the previous season (off 3lb lower mark than today's); hasn't had many chances at this sort of trip but he's won over 2m3f and he should stay; respected.

Doctor Ken
Form figures of 1212 over fences and was returning from a long absence when pushing a notable rival (ran well at the Cheltenham Festival) close over this far at Kempton (good to soft) in November; looks a danger to all off 2lb higher with fitness unlikely to hold him back.

Heltenham
Hasn't had the best of seasons but back to beneath his last winning mark and ran better at Newton Abbot five days ago (2m5f, heavy); versatile ground-wise and every chance of being involved.

Rexem
Won a four-runner 2m4f Ludlow handicap chase in October 2023 and confined to only two starts in the meantime, with neither good; comes with risks on this return from another absence.

Statuario
Won two 3m handicaps here last summer, the latest off 1lb lower; ran over hurdles after a break but could have run better back chasing at Huntingdon (2m7f, good) and he wants further ideally.

Dubai Days
Consistent 11yo who was first over 2m4f and second over 3m before being carried out mid-race by a loose horse at Haydock last weekend; that was in a veterans' final and he might just be vulnerable in a race of this nature.

Walk On Quest
Highly progressive in winning his first four chases (all handicaps) and connections opined that Uttoxeter last time came too soon only 14 days after scoring convincingly at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft); remains of interest.
