Formwatch
Barton The long awaited chasing debut of Yorkshire's pride; should have an exercise canter en-route to Cheltenham in March.
Historg (FR) Ex-French hurdler who will come into his own over three miles
Lord North (IRE) Yet to jump a twig in public and thrown in at the deep end here.
Machete Man Like stable mate, only form in bumpers.
October Mist (IRE) Not the same class over hurdles as Barton and would prefer it softer.
