Formwatch
The Prince Won over hurdles at Catterick last month; last outing on all-weather resulted in Class B handicap win here last March over course and distance; quirky character.
Gralmano (IRE) Won handicaps at Doncaster and Ripon last summer; has been successful over course and distance in past; first outing for about six months.
Air Mail Has been running consistently this winter season, culminating in second to Intricate Web at Southwell last week; best form over shorter.
Risk Free Close third to Kinsman at Lingfield earlier this month; may have found 10-furlong trip on slow surface too far there last time out.
Most-Saucy Closely matched with Risk Free on Lingfield form earlier this month; suited by this course and trip.
Baron de Pichon (IRE) Beat Sualtach in claiming company here last month; third to Flying Treaty last time in Class D handicap; running consistently at present.
Nose The Trade Won two handicaps over course and distance recently; up a grade to Class C now and has good chance of making it three on the bounce.
