Doc McCoy
Struggled over fences earlier but was having only his fourth run over hurdles when beating three rivals at Fakenham one month ago (2m4f, good) and jumping right didn't help matters when a close second at Huntingdon on Tuesday; clear claims if turned out again.

Kepagge
Dual C&D winner in spring 2023; however, there's been little to shout about in the meantime and, while the return of this headgear is probably a good thing, this 11yo has too much to prove.

The Flying Poet
The best of his three runs (hooded each time) was the near miss in a maiden at Hexham (2m4f, good); that was a very ordinary race but he has a nice pedigree; disappointing if he can't do better.

Sassified
Runner-up in back-to-back handicaps (2m4f/2m3f) before he was unsuited by soft ground at Exeter when last seen in December; every chance off this mark if on the ball after his break.

The Wire Flyer
Won by 5l over C&D (good) this month but that was a surprise outcome at 66-1 and, rather typically, he couldn't replicate the form at Worcester since; that was under a penalty and he's now 4lb higher.

Bluebella
Two years since sole success in a Worcester handicap hurdle (2m, good) and she wasn't in that sort of form late last year; certainly capable of a big run off this mark if revived by a change of scenery; stays this far.
