Form & Verdict
This summer's wins have come over C&D on good ground, running away with a maiden and handing out similar treatment to his rivals on handicap debut (2-1f); has another 9lb to contend with but that might not stop him.

J: Brian Hughes

Won three in a row over C&D (good) in early part of last season and subsequently made the frame in three Graded novice hurdles; absent since pulled up in Kelso Grade 2 in February but will be dangerous if back on song for this Perth return.

Won three in a row at Perth last May-September (2m, good; two of them handicaps) and has run with credit in defeat in Graded races on last three starts, the first two over 2m/2m1f (good to soft) and the latest at 3m (soft); he might not be far away.

Has steadily progressive form, albeit mostly at about 2m and his latest effort (in Aintree Grade 1) is open to question as several hurdles were omitted; something to prove back up markedly in trip.

Form & Verdict
Always takes a hold but she emerged from well off the pace to lead on the run-in at Uttoxeter, winning for the first time over hurdles at the tenth attempt by 3l; up 7lb but should be competitive if giving herself a chance by settling okay.

C&D winner who remains 4lb above her last winning mark (Hexham); low key in two C&D starts this year, beaten 19l and 17.5l respectively; this race is easier but she still needs to raise her game.

Form & Verdict
Only sixth in this last year but won her next two, both over C&D on good ground; still on a competitive mark but well held the last twice, including in The Last Cloud's race here in June; forget a recent Flat run over 6f.

Four course wins (all over 2m); lacked the pace to challenge when third over that trip here (good; 4-1) early last month; finished down the field back on the Flat (1m2f) since; stablemate Follow Charlie has more to recommend.

Four-time hurdle winner who was a respectable third at Perth (2m, good) 25 days ago; still lightly raced on the Flat but she's 5lb higher than for her win here (1m5f, soft) last autumn and not sure this drop back to 1m2f will suit; others are more persuasive.

Four C&D wins, the most recent when justifying favouritism from 2lb higher in May 2025; Flat winner since (last September); reportedly never travelling when only fifth of 12 (Ravenscraig Castle third) here on latest start.

0-9 over hurdles but it was his first run for this yard when beaten 4.5l by Break Point here recently, having gone from the front; could be dangerous if clicking with his new partner who claims 10lb.

Off the mark over hurdles at 15th attempt, with hard-fought success in C&D (good) maiden six weeks ago; has more on his plate in this good-quality handicap, though, and needs to kick on again.

Exposed 14-race maiden over hurdles (placed on seven occasions) who has some fair form to his credit, including when second in a C&D handicap last month (good); likely to find a couple too good.

Form & Verdict
Limited Flat performer but already looking much better over hurdles and it was never in doubt when winning a C&D maiden three weeks ago; probably on a fair mark.
