Destin d'Estruval (FR) Has been absent for some time and balance of form leaves him with something to find.
Maitre de Musique (FR) Ran on well to score last time out and is clearly in good heart; each-way possibilities.
Rectory Garden (IRE) Smart performer on his day and has been in fine form this term; stable know the time of day and jockey is very capable.
Secret Bay Runner-up in last year's Aintree Foxhunter Chase and is the clear pick on overall form; from a stable that are always to be feared in these events and should take the beating.
Skip'n'time Ignore latest refusal as he burst a blood vessel; has some decent form to his name and if recovered could run a good race.
Sounds Strong (IRE) Fair performer but looks to need to find improvement to figure in the finish today.
Stormy Session Hasn't looked at his best so far this term and is hard to fancy.
Call It A Day (IRE) Grand old campaigner (3rd in Boobyjo's Grand National) and still retains enough ability to make a name in this sphere but might find this trip on the sharp side.
Dig For Gold Looks sure to need the run after an absence of 430 days; watching brief advised.
Garolo (FR) was a decent handicap hurdler and has taken well to this game; needs to find more improvement to figure, but not beyond the bounds of possibility.
Goawayoutofthat (IRE) Won 11-runner race last time and is capable in his grade; this is much tougher though.
La Riviera (IRE) Fair northern hunter chaser; stays the trip, handles thr ground but probably not quite good enough.
Makin' Doo (IRE) In good form in point-to-points of late but makes plenty of mistakes and could be found out here.
Misti Hunter (IRE) Not really up to tackling this company and faces a stiff task.
North City Only moderate and looks out of his depth.
Private Pete One win from one run and capable of showing improvement although likely to find the more experienced campaigners a bit sharp for him.
Stinging Bee Modest sort who looks set to struggle in this company.
Triple Eaves Not disgraced at Sedgefield last time, but this is a much stiffer test; unlikely to be there at the death.
Hazel Reilly (IRE) Not up to this task.
Polly Live Wire Outclassed and is just making up the numbers.
