Won the 2m6f novice hurdle on this card a year ago (good ground) and followed up in handicap chase at Hexham (3m, good to soft) three weeks later, but returned from layoff with lacklustre chase run last month; now reverts to hurdling over new trip and with headgear switched.

Won an uncompetitive novice hurdle (2m6f, good) last May and the following month made a successful chase debut at Hexham (3m, good to soft); a long absence is perhaps a greater concern than the 4lb rise.

Form & Verdict
Returned from break with two disappointing runs this spring but is now very well handicapped on form shown when second three consecutive times (2m7f-3m) last spring/summer; has a course hurdle win on his CV; best suited by good ground but fine on good to soft; revival possible.

11yo whose losing run goes back 11 races to November 2024 but he ran pretty well off his lower hurdle mark at Musselburgh last month, following a break, and all four of his wins have come over fences (two of them here); not discounted back chasing.

7 yo Gelding

OR: 102

Form & Verdict
Not one to rely upon heavily and was not at best when last of three finishers at Cartmel a fortnight ago but he kept on well for a clearcut win at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) in February and ran well in defeat over C&D on only previous visit to Hexham; can't be ruled out.

Dual C&D winner who returned from break with two low-key runs in February/March; usually knocks about in lower-grade races than this but returns to this track on a workable mark (even from 3lb out of the weights) and is versatile regarding ground.
