Selected odds by:
Has dipped below his last winning mark and produced a couple of respectable efforts earlier in the year, albeit not jumping all that fluently at Hexham when last seen in February. Might need the run.
Off the mark in 3m maiden hurdle at Musselburgh (23.8f) in January but has struggled in handicaps from a stiff mark since.
Much improved in first-time cheekpieces when wide-margin winner of 25f Catterick handicap in December. In nothing like the same form on both subsequent outings, though.
Fairly useful hurdler at his peak and, following a quiet spell on the Flat, showed some ability remains when seventh in a handicap at Market Rasen back in this sphere last time.
Plenty in hand when scoring at Southwell in July and perhaps found race coming too soon when a laboured third there next time. May well resume progress after a break.
Dual winning hurdler who looked set to make it three before slipping and falling 2 out at Fontwell 10 days ago. Should be able to make amends from the same mark.
Below her last winning mark but only seen out twice last season and, while her third at Hexham 11 months ago was a creditable effort, it's concerning that she's been off the track since.
Largely in fine form around 3m this winter, scoring over hurdles and fences at Musselburgh. Lacklustre display in handicap chase at Market Rasen on return, though.
Dual winning hurdler who made an uninspiring start to chasing last season and found little when fourth at Market Rasen when last seen back over smaller obstacles 7 months ago. Others preferred.
Has shown signs of temperament on more than one occasion, but did the job well when scoring at Musselburgh in January and returned with a creditable third over C&D 27 days ago. One to consider.

Heavey (15/8), Petite Ganache (4/1), Ratfacemcdougall (4/1), The Distant Lady (9/2), Always Tipsy (8/1), Order Of Thistle (12/1), Island Heights (14/1), Toi Storey (25/1), Chanceanotherfive (33/1), Level Of Intensity (33/1), Rivabodiva (40/1)
HEAVEY looked set to win at Fontwell before coming down in unfortunate fashion 2 out, so he's an obvious choice to gain compensation. The Distant Lady was impressive at Southwell on her penultimate outing, so she might be able to resume progress, while Petite Ganache warrants respect after a positive return over C&D last month.
