Form & Verdict
Stays 3m but she's not short of pace and travelled much the best en route to comfortably winning a 2m mares' handicap at Cheltenham on Thursday; didn't appear to have a hard race and should be hard to beat under a penalty; good ground seems the key to her.

J: Liam Harrison

Three chase wins at 2m1f and 2m3f (all on good), the latest in October, but she hasn't lived up to that form since and was a long way behind Califet En Vol over C&D recently; needs revival.

J: Harry Atkins

T: Dan Skelton

Has done all her winning on good ground so any rain would be a negative, which counted against her in a Listed chase for mares last time; on a tempting mark with Harry Atkins taking off 7lb if she was on her game (wasn't the case the time before at Ascot).

Fairly useful handicap chaser who scored three times last year, most recently at Kelso in October; always behind at Ascot latest start; place possibilities on these terms but ideally needs drying ground, having done her winning on good.

Form & Verdict
Runner-up on his chase debut in February and has since justified favouritism in good-ground handicaps at Taunton (2m) and Stratford (2m3f); up in the weights accordingly but he's a keen-going front-runner who should enjoy it around here.

Four-time chase winner, most recently at Plumpton (2m1f, good) in November before falling in a Sandown Class 3 in January; returned from a break with two solid placed efforts in March over hurdles, latest when a close second at Taunton (2m3f, good) 21 days ago; switches back to fences in a very small field and should go well.

Form & Verdict
The first-time blinkers will need to work again but he wasn't overly pressed to win over a similar trip at Fontwell and that was a Class 2 (on good); respected despite the 7lb rise triggering a career-high mark.

Won at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last March and he finished in the first three in his next five starts; still looks on workable mark but he had a rare blip at Windsor (2m6f, soft) last month and he's never raced at shorter than 2m3f; bit to prove and others are preferred.

First-time blinkers did the trick when scoring at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in March and he was short of room at a crucial stage when close third at Plumpton (2m4f) the following month; now 8lb higher than for his last win but he's a reliable type who still has potential in this sphere; respected on his return.

Pulled up in his final two runs last year but he returned after wind surgery with a front-running win at Fontwell (2m3f, good; 22-1) this month; this is a different test but he won over fences here (3m2f) last spring and 3lb rise for that last success looks fair; respected.

Highly progressive over fences in the first half of last season, winning here four times (2m, good to soft/good); 2m5f here appeared to stretch him last month following some time off; has a lower mark to work with back over hurdles and he could play a leading role back down in trip.
