7 yo Gelding

OR: 123

Form & Verdict
5-23 over hurdles and his recent run when an 11l eighth of 11 in a competitive Haydock Class 2 after wind surgery was solid; only 1lb higher than his most recent win in October and likely to make his presence felt now back down in class.

J: William Maggs

T: Rebecca Menzies

Two wins last season, the first a four-runner Huntingdon handicap in May (3m1f, good), the second a six-runner handicap at Newbury (3m, good to soft) in March; far from disgraced in a competitive race at Aintree last time and not without a chance despite career-high mark.

Ridden last ten starts by William Maggs; seventh hurdle win when seeing off five rivals at Newbury (3m, good to soft) three weeks ago but even a 2lb nudge seems likely to stop him in this much more competitive scenario.

J: William Maggs

T: Rebecca Menzies

Ridden last nine starts by William Maggs; rarely seen on soft ground; six-time winner, most recently last May; good placed efforts at about 3m four times in a row in October-December, before he failed to show in a Pertemps qualifier at Musselburgh (10-1) nearly seven weeks ago; best form this term was over C&D, so he's not entirely ruled out.

9 yo Gelding

OR: 98

Form & Verdict
Largely consistent 9yo who was only just denied at Fontwell (3m2f, good) 13 days ago, staying on well late in a first-time visor; one of two for the Anthony Honeyball stable and likely to give another good account off a small rise in the same headgear.

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Anthony Honeyball

Several good efforts in defeat since 3m2f win at Fontwell (good) in June 2024, although his form did dip over C&D last time out; versatile regarding the ground and can be competitive on the earlier runs.

11st 2lb

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Anthony Honeyball

Generally consistent 9yo who has found one too good on his last four starts, including when turned over at short odds latest; still 7lb above last summer's win and, while he should be thereabouts again, he'll likely prove vulnerable to less-exposed rivals for the win.

J: Chad Bament

T: Anthony Honeyball

Largely consistent 9yo who lost out only by a head in first-time visor at Fontwell (3m2f, good) 19 days ago and again ran well when second over C&D (good) on Tuesday; Chad Bament looks excellent value for his 8lb claim against other conditional riders today; major player.

Form & Verdict
Three-time winner over hurdles last season (2m7f-3m2f, good/good to soft); returned to form back from a break with a win at Ludlow last month under a 3lb claimer and effectively 7lb higher here with Gavin Sheehan back in the saddle; will need to improve again but he's open to further progress.

Another 3m2f winner who was in decent nick in spring/early summer but he finished tailed off behind Earth King at Uttoxeter in July and was pulled up in a first-time visor at Stratford last time; needs to get back on track.

Returned from a break in fine form and now goes in a visor after his disappointing show at Uttoxeter; capable of having a say off this mark and good to soft would be acceptable.
