Eye-catcher
Sole Solution (1.45 Ludlow)
This Venetia Williams-trained seven-year-old won both starts in bumpers and ran into a smart type hurdling at Leicester last time on his second run back after an absence. He can go one better.

Smiling Getaway (2.50 Ludlow)
Course winner who could make it two from two in handicap chases for Nigel Twiston-Davies after finishing a respectable fifth in Listed company last time.

Claim Du Brizais (3.55 Ludlow)
Dan Skelton has a 31 per cent strike-rate in bumpers this season and this £130,000 purchase shaped like a certain future winner when finishing third on his Aintree debut.

Radiant Beauty (5.30 Wolverhampton)
Just denied over course and distance last month, she earned a personal best on the stopwatch and can gain deserved compensation.

West Country nap
Dunskay (1.45 Ludlow)
Excellent form in bumpers and has a good opportunity on first start over hurdles.

Dark horse
Sole Solution (1.45 Ludlow)
A bumper winner in January 2023 who has run into two smart performers on both starts since returning from a long absence. Was a well-held second at Leicester last month and should go well in this weaker race.
