Form & Verdict
6lb higher when a close fourth at Hereford (3m1f, good) in November on just his second run over fences; below that level on soft ground subsequently but has to be of interest back under these conditions and over a trip that may suit (plenty of stamina in pedigree); cheekpieces added.

0-5 over hurdles and 1-14 as a chaser; clearly difficult to win with but arrives here in a good run of form and always a chance that new headgear might give him a lift; an assured stayer.

J: Benjamin Macey

T: Jonjo & A J O’Neill

His sole success came when landing this race last year (good to firm) in first-time cheekpieces off 3lb lower mark; has ran with credit since when placed and his second at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in February will have set him up nicely for a repeat bid.

Has 1-17 strike-rate and is not one to rely upon too heavily but he ran well when clear second over C&D (good to soft) six weeks ago and gets another chance off the same mark today.

Form & Verdict
Won back-to-back handicap chases during the winter (3m/2m4f; good to soft) but she's faded from the front the last twice and also refused to race in November; capable but seemingly comes with risks.

Only 3lb higher than for her narrow C&D win on good ground in March and was odds-on favourite for her return to fences 18 days ago only to depart mid-race; she's probably the one to beat; usual cheekpieces are replaced by an eyeshield.

Three-time chase winner (once over C&D); lost her way over fences during the winter but battled well for narrow hurdle win here (3m1f, good; front pair well clear) in March and reverts to this code on a good mark.

J: Sean Bowen

Three front-running chase wins in 2024, including over about 3m here; second of five at Ludlow in October but her chase form has gone to pot; latest hurdle performance (four starts back) gives her a place chance.

2lb out of the weights; he was 3lb wrong and didn't jump that well but stuck to his task to be second at Chepstow (3m6f, good) in the first-time blinkers 20 days ago; thereabouts with something similar.

Thorough stayer but he was a remote third in this 12 months ago and nowhere near his best this campaign; an 11yo now and age seems to be catching up.

Began this year with some respectable efforts, most notably when second in first-time blinkers at Chepstow (3m6f, good); should be fine on the slower ground here but has fitness to prove after 224-day break and others appeal more; cheekpieces refitted.

The four-timer came up short when a close second to Pounding Poet over 2m7f at Uttoxeter (good) but that was no backward step; a 2lb nudge does her no favours but this C&D winner is shortlisted.

Completed a hat-trick early last season and better than ever on her latest two starts for wins at Huntingdon (3m1f, good) and Warwick (3m2f, good); up 6lb into a much more competitive race and wears first-time cheekpieces after a fairly workmanlike display from the front last time.
