5yo who won twice in novice company this spring before making all in a match at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in July; held in second of five there last time but that was another creditable effort and he still has potential in this sphere; key player.

Improving 5yo who won twice in novice company this spring and made all in C&D match (also on good ground) when back in a handicap last month; contests a much deeper race today but still commands respect.

Won twice over hurdles at Newton Abbot on good during the summer; made a pleasing start over fences when passing three opponents on the run-in to claim third over C&D (good) last month and holds place claims.

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

2-9 over hurdles, both wins coming on good ground this summer after wind surgery; has to be forgiven a below-par effort last month but the switch to fences could bring improvement and he's one to consider.
