Ben Reid
Favorite

7-1, beat only one in a Newcastle bumper on his debut 11 months ago; this son of Sogann needs to take a major step forward now going hurdling.

Jockey: NON-RUNNERTrainer: Peter Niven
1
Count Of Vendome

A fairly useful dual bumper winner who has made a promising start in this sphere, landing C&D novice in February before advancing his form when second of five under a penalty at Bangor (2m) 16 days ago; holds major claims.

Jockey: Brian HughesTrainer: Donald McCain
2
Lewisham Grove

Deservedly got off the mark over hurdles at Newcastle (2m4f) in January and not disgraced under a penalty despite coming in last of five in 3m Musselburgh novice 41 days ago; must enter calculations with cheekpieces added.

Jockey: Sean QuinlanTrainer: Jennie Candlish
4
Corsican Caper

A fair 2m Flat winner but he came in a tailed-off seventh on his first go over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m) in January and was below par back on the Flat at Chelmsford last month; very hard to make a case for.

Jockey: Lee EdwardsTrainer: Kevin Frost
5
It's Party Time

In the frame in an Irish point but he has been pulled up in novice hurdles (about 2m4f) here and at Southwell this term; significantly more is required.
