Haydn James (USA) Easy winner over hurdles at Bangor in August off a mark of 95; faces a more difficult task over larger obstacles here racing off 113.
Ingenu (FR) Close third behind Sir d'Orton at Plumpton on reappearance last month; solid claims having been raised just 4lb since then.
Over The Water (IRE) Been off the track since down the field at Bangor in May; looks the stable second string.
Spinofski Very tired when refusing two out at Chepstow on first run of the season; better judged on earlier success at Market Rasen (7lb higher here).
Homme de Fer Off the track since the end of May but stable's horses have been in good form recently so could go well.
Bozo (IRE) Tends to find at least one too good and may be better on a more testing surface.
Royal Event Respectable third at Fontwell last month but needs to improve; non runner earlier this week.
Vincent Van Gogh (IRE) Little sign of encouragement since winning at Taunton in April; has an absence to overcome.
