Hard-fought win back over hurdles at Hexham (2m) before a 10l defeat returned to fences; no great significance in the return of cheekpieces (blinkered last two races) but entitled to have some say.

Won this race off today's mark a year ago (good; first-time blinkers) and reverts to chasing after hard-fought hurdle win here (2m, good; refitted blinkers) a fortnight ago; obvious contender.

Won over fences here (2m, good; in first-time blinkers - two finished) last June; runner-up at Newcastle (2m4f) in April, but low key at Kelso subsequently; returns to hurdles for the first time since finishing tailed off over C&D last October; others more appealing.

Form & Verdict
Maiden hurdler has taken really well to fences and impressively landed 2m handicap at Southwell 19 days ago; up 6lb but he looks to have more to offer; major shout.

0-9 over hurdles and has the stronger form over fences but is accordingly handicapped and didn't run badly back over hurdles last month, where lack of a recent run told late; could be involved with that outing behind him.

Better chaser than hurdler but handicapped accordingly and has placed form in this discipline; however, he has been off since falling over fences in September.

Form & Verdict
Not the most consistent and she comes here on the back of a below-par fourth of five in 2m1f Carmel handicap chase 29 days ago; others appeal more.

Two wins at Carlisle in November 2024 (2m1f, soft/good to soft); mixed form since, including over fences; sound run back hurdling at Carlisle in March (2m1f, soft), but poor next time and has since had wind surgery; bit to prove.

Form & Verdict
Made an encouraging start chasing when twice placed over C&D in the spring but he blundered four out when a below-par fifth back here eight days ago; he shouldn't be written off.

Resurgent 10yo who led close home at Perth (2m, good) last month and has now won three times since April; unlucky to come to grief when back at Perth last week and remains of strong interest, albeit he was well beaten over C&D on his only previous start here.

Resurgent 10yo who led close home over C&D (good) last month and has now won three of his last four; probably doesn't have much margin for error after latest 5lb rise but must be considered in current mood.

Exposed multiple winner; he would have found the ground too soft when beaten by King Sacre at Hexham and then dug deep to win at Kelso (2m, good; 5lb lower); entitled to have some say.
