Was in the money first up then couldn't repeat the feat when fourth last time out over 2200m at this track. Likely improver who should feature.

Sparingly raced stayer who improved at second run from a spell when win over 2220m at this track on January 4. Progressive type who rates among the leading hopes.

Fitter for recent racing and looks close to a win after finishing third over 2220m at Kempton Park All Weather last time. Sure to run well again.

Pulled up last start at Cheltenham when resuming. Expected to finish much closer.

Returned at long odds last start and finished 8 lengths adrift in eighth over 1900m at Wolverhampton. Didn't do enough first up to raise hopes.

Beaten 3.5 lengths into third at this track two starts ago then appeared at Newcastle All Weather last time and finished 8 lengths from the winner in fifth. Major player on best form.

Has been about the mark in small fields of late. Last start finished third at Newcastle All Weather over 2500m. Worth plenty of thought.

Handy gelding who finished third last start but was beaten only 1.5 lengths over 3220m at Kempton Park All Weather. Has ability and is among the leading hopes.

Scored at this track when resuming then could only manage fourth at Wolverhampton over 2820m a week-and-a-half ago. Great chance to atone.

Easily beaten at his last run before spelling and didn't fare any better when resuming over 2500m at Newcastle All Weather two weeks ago, beaten 23 lengths into seventh. Prefer in something easier.

Hasn't been too far away in recent runs, the latest effort a second over 2000m at Newcastle All Weather two weeks ago. Definitely one to consider.
