Runner-up on debut in Huntingdon bumper (2m, good to soft) in November and similar form when third of eight at Wetherby in December (2m, soft; carried head awkwardly); should be capable of winning races over hurdles but improvement is needed if he's to pose a serious threat today.

Milou Du Chenet

2-2, the wins coming comfortably from the front in junior hurdles at Bangor (2m, soft) and Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft); it remains to be seen where his limitations lie and he has strong claims under double penalty.

Jockey: Brian HughesTrainer: Warren Greatrex
2
Mustang Du Breuil

Got behind after making mistakes on debut at Auteuil (2m2f, heavy) in October and did very well to lead close home and win by 1l; subsequently acquired by top connections and could play leading role under a penalty.

Molly's Lad

8l second on debut in Aintree bumper (2m1f, good to soft) in November and fifth of 16 in Listed bumper at Cheltenham (2m1f, good) on New Year's Day; brings potential to this first hurdle start and could be in the mix.

Jockey: Fern O'Brien(5)Trainer: Fergal O'Brien
