J: Nick Slatter

T: David Killahena & Graeme McPherson

Low-grade winner on the AW who has shown some aptitude for hurdling, making the frame in run-of-the-mill 2m maidens at Hereford (good) and Huntingdon (good to firm); not obviously well treated for this handicap debut but should feature in a weak race.

T: David Killahena & Graeme McPherson

Low-grade AW winner; did not achieve huge amount when well-held second of seven behind short-odds favourite at Hereford (2m, good) a fortnight ago, his second hurdle run, but might collect another minor prize here.

Has shown most of his Flat form on AW, winning once; never landed a blow over C&D switched to hurdles last time but this looks a weaker race.
