Built on three frame finishes to win at Cork; this is tougher but he's hard to rule out
6	Captain Cody b J:Miss J Townend T:W P Mullins	J:Miss J Townend T:W P Mullins	160	—	F-4216	-	138	104	31d	—	—	-12	5	4/1 20%
Close sixth at the Cheltenham Festival; that's the best form on offer here
13	Pour Les Filles b J:Davy Russell T:Gordon Elliott	J:Davy Russell T:Gordon Elliott	160	—	11	-	132	79	110d	—	—	+9	20.3	13/2 13%
Pulled clear with runner-up at Leopardstown; already useful and has untapped potential
7	Centara br J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	160	—	1	-	127	99	26d	—	—	+4	12.4	17/2 11%
Created most favourable impression when making winning debut at Taunton; high on the list
9	Go To War b J:Paddy Brennan T:Fergal Obrien	J:Paddy Brennan T:Fergal Obrien	160	—	1	-	119	105	169d	—	—	+3	12.7	8/1 11%
Beat well-backed favourite on debut and that form has been franked; another to consider
8	Florida Dreams b J:Danny McMenamin T:Nicky Richards	J:Danny McMenamin T:Nicky Richards	160	—	1	-	119	108	102d	—	—	+6	11.4	16 6%
Won with lots in hand at Musselburgh in January; in deeper waters but has to be respected
1	Aslukgoes b J:Jack Quinlan T:B F Brookhouse	J:Jack Quinlan T:B F Brookhouse	160	—	111	-	128	98	63d	—	—	+17	24.1	11/1 8%
3-3 on good going, including Listed event; big player if handling more testing conditions
19	Samui b J:L P Dempsey T:Gordon Elliott	J:L P Dempsey T:Gordon Elliott	152	—	1	-	133	91	63d	—	—	+6	11.6	16 6%
Won debut at Naas; hard to pin down but with excellent yard and impossible to discount
2	Beat The Bat b J:Bryan Carver T:Harry Fry	J:Bryan Carver T:Harry Fry	160	—	21	-	127	93	49d	—	—	+9	15.1	20/1 5%
Promising type, runner-up at Wincanton before scoring at Chepstow; in the mix
10	Hasthing b J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo Oneill	J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo Oneill	160	—	11-2	-	128	101	28d	—	—	+2	6.2	25 4%
2-2 in France; close second at Uttoxeter on British debut; could have a say
12	Masaccio gr J:A P Heskin T:Alan King	J:A P Heskin T:Alan King	160	—	12/32	-	127	78	63d	—	—	-4	1.4	18/1 5%
Third to Bowenspark at Warwick, second to Aslukgoes at Newbury; more needed for a win
16	Dino Bellagio b J:Brian Hughes T:Donald Mccain	J:Brian Hughes T:Donald Mccain	152	—	101	-	122	79	77d	—	—	+12	16.1	40/1 2%
Easy winner at Doncaster in January; hard to know where his ceiling lies
3	Berties Ballet b J:Conor O'Farrell T:Dianne Sayer	J:Conor O'Farrell T:Dianne Sayer	160	—	13-21	-	119	111	21d	—	—	-2	0.7	40/1 2%
Two wins from four runs; further progress required but not dismissed lightly
11	Kinbara b J:Simon Torrens T:John C Mcconnell	J:Simon Torrens T:John C Mcconnell	160	—	11	-	113	78	275d	—	—	+15	17.8	40 3%
Won Killarney bumper last summer; could get involved if handling today's softer ground
17	Esprit Du Potier gr J:Derek Fox T:Lucinda Russell	J:Derek Fox T:Lucinda Russell	152	—	211	-	123	86	47d	—	—	+18	20.2	40/1 2%
Two front-running wins at Ayr; may improve further but this is a much sterner assignment
5	Bowenspark b J:Richard Patrick T:Henry Daly	J:Richard Patrick T:Henry Daly	160	—	114	-	124	86	63d	—	—	+10	12.7	50 2%
Lost unbeaten record at Newbury but more testing conditions today should suit him well
18	Fiercely Proud b J:Luca Morgan T:Ben Pauling	J:Luca Morgan T:Ben Pauling	152	—	110	-	119	94	31d	—	—	+11	12.5	80/1 1%
Won first two races but well beaten at the Cheltenham Festival and needs to up his game
15	Westerninthepark b J:Daryl Jacob T:Milton Harris	J:Daryl Jacob T:Milton Harris	160	—	221	-	116	49	14d	—	—	+15	16.5	80 1%

14	Taras Halls b J:Bryony Frost T:Lucy Wadham	J:Bryony Frost T:Lucy Wadham	160	—	12	-	118	105	41d	—	—	+11	12.4	100/1 1%
First then second at Huntingdon; may not have reached limit but faces a sterner task here
20	Shinji b J:Sean Bowen T:Martin Keighley	J:Sean Bowen T:Martin Keighley	152	h	13	-	122	73	63d	—	—	+9	10.5	125 1%
Did well to finish third to Aslukgoes at Newbury after racing freely; hooded today
