It was a bit of a surprise to us when Lleyton, a horse we hadn't had for very long, won first time out around here at 50-1. Stamina won him the day after they went a strong pace over a mile and threequarters and the race rather fell in his lap. He's been working nicely…

Crossgalesfamegame made a promising reappearance at Wincanton, staying on when the race was already over. She has a bit to find with the winner but this track will suit her better and she should have a good each-way shout.

The ground has probably gone against Rocky's Treasure judging on yesterday's surface. He has had very little racing and I suspect he will be better on spring ground - and a few pounds lower in the handicap!

Jersey Bean has been having a cracking season since being equipped with blinkers, something suggested by Henrietta Knight after she had him for a two-week schooling session. He has won his last two impressively and his confidence is sky high. Despite going up in the weights, he must have a great chance of completing the…

Cardano made a very good all-weather debut on this course and distance last time, and a repetition would give him a clear each-way chance. As is often the case, a couple of three-year-olds look the potential problems.

Hurricane Harvey is well up to the class on ratings and looks sure to run his usual consistent race. It could be that the Tizzard horse might be hard to beat on these level terms.

Jen's Fella made a promising first run for the stable last time moving up to this trip at Lingfield. If he's in the same form today he should go very close.

No No Juliet made a promising start for the stable at Chepstow and will come on for the run. She has place chances but will probably find it difficult to give 5lb to the favourite.

Judging on yesterday I think the ground may have gone against Solar Impulse. He's in fine form though and could still run a decent race.

The absence of the overnight favourite slightly eases the task for Optimise Prime, but it's still competitive enough. One thing's for sure, he won't be 50-1 again as he was when winning oiver course and distance on debut. Luca's claim more than offests the 6lb penalty and he should go well again.

It's ages since Knocknamona won a race, but he was successful in this three years ago and both the trip and heavy ground that he will encounter today are ideal. His mark has slipped a long way and he must have each-way chances in an ordinary race.

Twojayslad ran really well last time at Uttoxeter after another longish absence. He will not have to improve much to win this.

This lovely horse ran well last time and was probably beaten by the tight track at Fakenham. I'm keen to get him experience of Cheltenham and he is the form horse in the race although not top-rated. Fingers crossed for a very bold showing.

Zayriyan has an obvious chance in a race of this nature but remains a long-running maiden. I would not be surprised if he made the frame again but things would have to go absolutely right for him to get his head in front on the line.

Lucky's Dream has been out of form, so we're sending him back to Chelmsford where he usually runs well to seek a revival. Nice price too!

Fine Casting is a lovely horse. We expected a good run on debut at Newbury but he pulled much too hard. In the circumstances it was still a creditable first effort and he should go very close today.

Anightinlambourn has yet to win a race but she's been pretty consistent and was a good second last time at Southwell after needing the run first time back. She's in great order and surely must go close at the very least today.
