Amma Lord
Ran poorly in this race a year ago but led close home to win soft-ground point at Friars Haugh in February and returned to racing under rules with very respectable fourth in Buccleuch Cup at Kelso (2m7f, good) last month.

Dr Lockdown
Placed off lowly hurdle mark in 2023 but the rest of his rules form is very uninspiring and he achieved very little when winning a two-runner maiden point last month.

Great Notions
Dual point winner (maiden/restricted) on good to soft ground at Alnwick this year and placed elsewhere on last two appearances; has a bit more on his plate on this rules debut but still considered each-way.

Pete The Brief
Won low-grade Flat handicap in 2023 and placed in juvenile hurdle later that year; back from long absence with respectable second of six on point debut at Dalton Park (2m6f, good) in March and has possibilities here if that run brought him on.

22/1 |
Something Golden
0-14 over hurdles and just 1-12 in points; third in five consecutive restricted points since February but most of those were small-field affairs and others in this line-up have more pressing claims.

Torngat
Runner-up in two small-field Kelso hunter chases since his two point wins in 2023 but out of form this year and a long way behind Amma Lord at Kelso last month.

- Up With The Play
- Mr Shay Halton / V Thompson

|
|
22/1 |
Up With The Play
0-25 under all codes; returned from long absence with three poor point runs, then was no match for easy winner when second of four at Overton last month; cheekpieces are the headgear of choice today.

4/6 |
Wallace Olinger
Southern raider with 4-10 strike-rate in points; reportedly not suited by heavy ground when beaten odds-on favourite on rules debut in February but still ran pretty well; confirmed his wellbeing when making all for wide-margin success in good-ground Dingley point last month and looks the one to beat.

33/1 |
Tanora
0-16 under rules but ran a big race when close second in good-ground open point at Overton in March and makes quick reappearance after holding on well to win a conditions point at Witton Castle on Monday; has also won on the point-to-point course here; can make presence felt.
