Form & Verdict
Hurdle and dual point winner; took to chasing immediately when landing three-runner race at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in July, but his two efforts over the same C&D since have been dismal; cheekpieces worn last time have been discarded; suddenly has plenty to prove.

Developed into a mercurial staying chaser last summer, winning two small-field events (3m2f, good) but tanking twice also; remains to be seen what mood he returns in, but reproduction of the form of his 2l second in a C&D 0-120 hurdle of a year ago brings him right into the reckoning.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Irish 11yo; 0-15 as a chaser prior to joining this yard and making an immediate impact with a clearcut success at Stratford (3m3f, good; 22-1) 17 days ago; 6lb rise looks manageable.

Yet to run a bad race since joining Christian Williams last summer and doubled his chasing tally in low-grade event at Stratford (3m3f, good) in August; 6lb higher in stronger contest but seems a lot more likely than some of these to run his race.

Form & Verdict
Four-time hurdle winner; has taken a while to get the hang of chasing but he jumped more assuredly when winning six-runner race at Worcester at the beginning of July; stays well and has a solid record on good ground; should go well again.
