Azof Des Mottes (FR)
Back up 6lb after his Ayr win and unraced beyond 3m but he has to be considered seriously

Seriously hit and miss lately but he won in good style here in February and stays well

Open: 12/1
8
Gibberwell (IRE)
Effective here; Hexham winner in March and he needs a second look

Two wins in the mud here but he's a frequent visitor and does not look the percentage call
