Young Buck (IRE) Two fair runs of late but more improvement needed to play a role here.
Air Shot Finished the season on a high with his best performance of the year at Warwick; not one to rely on first time out.
Go-onmyson Most experienced of these runners and has been on the upgrade of late; excellent chance if still in good heart although stable not firing at present.
Darakshan (IRE) Improved for step up in trip last time so step back here is a slight concern; would not want it too soft.
Tonka Much improved effort on reappearance at Market Rasen; excellent chance if reproducing that effort; suited by any ground.
Pertemps Profile Good effort last time out to win at Bangor; this is a lot tougher and may struggle here.
Who Dares Wins Returning to hurdles after some decent efforts over fences; has fair hurdle form and could go well for in-form trainer.
Jacdor (IRE) Has had training problems and looks a shadow of his former self.
Gun Shot Holds his form well and has won two of his last three; stable under a cloud and looks a favourite who could get beaten.
