Runner-up sole start in point and looked something out of the ordinary when powering away to justify short odds in Kempton bumper a couple of months ago. Clearly the one to beat.

Brother to 4 winners and made the ideal start when landing a 14-runner contest at Newbury 35 days ago. No reason why he won't improve from that, so one to consider.

Overcame inexperience when 33/1 scorer on debut at Warwick and surpassed that form on both subsequent outings. Looks out of his depth in this, though.

Runner-up in points who is unbeaten in two outings in bumpers, well on top at the finish at Catterick on latest. This is a whole different proposition, though.

Has reached a useful level in bumpers without success, going close in steadily-run contest at Cheltenham in November. Well-held in Champion Bumper there last time, though.

Expensive, well-bred sort who looks an exciting prospect having maintained his unbeaten record in cosy fashion at Ascot in December, beating Stage Star. Primed for a big run again.

Shirrocco gelding who took his record to 2-2 at Wetherby 52 days ago, comfortably quickening clear. This level of competition is probably beyond him, though.

Fame And Glory gelding who forged away from a next-time-out winner when landing Chepstow event first time out. Runner-up to Knappers Hill since and will do well to reverse placings.

Landed his first two starts then upped his game to finish an excellent fifth in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham, doing some good late work. Slightly longer trip is in his favour.

BALCO COASTAL was most impressive at Kempton and the form has a strong look to it, so he's taken to follow up in this higher grade. Knappers Hill appeals as the chief threat bidding to defend his unbeaten record, while Super Six can't be discounted following his admirable fifth at Cheltenham.

  2. KNAPPERS HILL (IRE)
  3. SUPER SIX
