Two wins last season, at Ayr in January (3m, soft) and on final start at Kelso in April (2m7f, soft); off since and although these conditions suit, is likely to need the run after a break.

Veteran who remains very capable on his day, with a first and close second this season; below best last time but could bounce back from that.

Early faller at Sandown last time; prior to that this highly admirable 13yo won at Ayr (3m, heavy) and he scored twice here earlier in his career; respected off just 2lb higher than at Ayr.

Admirable 13yo who ran well in defeat during a light last season and, after a heavy defeat on his Cheltenham comeback, he narrowly returned to winning ways in a 3m heavy-ground Class 3 handicap at Ayr; ran a good fourth in the veterans' final here just over a year ago and needs considering.
