Form & Verdict
C&D winner who produced a career best at Hexham (1m7f, good) in May when landing his third chase win but well-held when second of five finishers at Perth (2m, good) in June; consistent sort who may have benefitted from the short break and is not out of this.

Better over fences; ran creditably (runner-up) in refitted cheekpieces at Stratford (12-1) on penultimate start, but didn't appear to see out the trip at Bangor (2m4f, good) subsequently; likely to find at least a couple better equipped.

Five-time course winner, most recently in April (2m, good); only fifth of eight over C&D (good to firm) 17 days ago but beaten under 8l, and recent 3lb drop means he's now 3lb below that last winning mark; no surprise if he's in the shake-up.

Market Rasen regular, with three wins, two of those in a visor over fences (2m1f); just did enough to prevail at Catterick (2m; from 2lb lower) in December and looked in need of the comeback run at Cartmel (weakened quickly) 16 days ago; don't discount.
