9st 7lb

J: Hector Crouch

T: James Owen

This course scorer might have needed his recent reappearance and is well treated if bouncing back to his best, having returned to the mark he defied at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) last August; also went close over C&D last summer; cheekpieces off, visor back on; yard hasn't been as prolific as usual in the last couple of weeks but that's likely to change before long.

9st 9lb

J: Luke Morris

T: James Owen

Wore cheekpieces when just holding on in six-runner July course handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in August; visored when he stopped quickly on good to soft at Nottingham in October and not seen since a hurdles debut the following month; cheekpieces back on for this return.

11st 4lb

J: Jonathan Burke

T: James Owen

Fair Flat racer who held on gamely to win at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm; RPR 80) in August; needs to bounce back quickly from last month's poor run and probably won't be aided by any rain here but still considered on hurdling debut.

8st 11lb

J: George Wood

T: James Owen

Six runs in handicaps have yielded two seconds and a win, the latter gained by a nose at Newmarket (1m2f) in August; that was his second run in cheekpieces and he ran creditably in a visor when third at Chester (1m4f) on latest outing, but he now needs to find a bit extra.

11st 7lb

J: Adam Wedge

T: James Owen

Five runs in handicaps have yielded two seconds and a win, the victory coming narrowly at Newmarket last time (1m2f; second run in cheekpieces); only 1lb higher, stays this far and now goes in a visor; hard to rule out.
