As The Lad Says
Runner-up in soft-ground Irish point last month and came from behind to make winning stable debut in good-ground Hexham maiden nine days ago; has a bit more on his plate here but evidently in good nick.

Carriglux
2-7 in points for current stable since spring 2023; beat dual subsequent winner Hollywood Harmon comfortably by 9l at Charm Park (good ground) in March and has each-way claims at least here.

Monticello
Yet to add to his two Flat wins in 2016 and it's a long time since he showed any worthwhile form under any code.

Premier Fantasy
4-11 in points, having easily collected fast-ground conditions race at Eyton-on-Severn this month; may not be ideally suited by the forecast rain here but has won on good to soft and been placed on soft; shortlisted.

5/2 |
Surprise Attack
Front-runner who comfortably won open point at Witton Castle (good to firm) by 8l three weeks ago and has now bagged five point victories this year; commands respect on this hunter chase debut but the forecast rain is probably not in his favour.

Titanium Bullet
Placed in a low-grade handicap chase in 2023 and 2-8 in points this year; beat only two rivals at Charm Park (good to firm) this month, though, and others in this line-up have more compelling form.

Torngat
Runner-up in two small-field Kelso hunter chases since his two point wins in 2023 and won't mind if there's significant rain about today but has been out of form this year.

What's Up Harry
Struck form in points this spring, winning two small-field contests at Flete Park (maiden/restricted); tackles stronger opposition on this rules debut but not ruled out in current mood.

Whatudoing
Won soft-ground maiden point in February and was respectable fifth in Buccleuch Cup at Kelso (2m7f, good; first-time cheekpieces) on last month's rules debut but probably needs to find something extra here.

Hollywood Harmon
Comfortably held by Carriglux when second in Charm Park point in March but has won twice since; placed in this race a year ago and ought to cope fairly well if there's rain about; could have a say.

She Is The Enemy
Put in good front-running shift before weakening into sixth (behind Whatudoing) in last month's Buccleuch Cup at Kelso (2m7f, good) and has since won two four-runner points but others in this line-up appeal more.
