Form & Verdict
Not the most reliable but romped home at Newton Abbot In July and 7lb rise for that seems fair on the surface; arguably beat little then and this will provide much more of a test, but hard to rule out.

Form & Verdict
Three wins at the end of last year (two novices and a handicap off just 1lb lower); not so good in three starts early in 2022 and now back from six months off; return of a hood a possible plus as is the stable form.

Best effort for some time when third at Bangor last month and may be able to build on that; five career wins have come in fields of six or fewer but too well handicapped now to be dismissed.

Form & Verdict
Only one win in the last four years but has been running well in defeat this summer; enters the argument assuming he runs as he has missed half of his last 14 declared engagements, all for unsuitable ground.

Form & Verdict
Hat-trick on the Flat this summer (peak RPR 81) and didn't run badly on latest start last month; not much to show for occasional runs over hurdles in last two years (usually in very competitive events) so some doubt about how he'll perform, but obvious chances if transferring Flat form.

Won small-field Flat marathon off much reduced mark last month but has not run over hurdles since summer 2023 and his current ability in this sphere is hard to gauge; best suited by good or faster ground.

Form & Verdict
Never the easiest to predict but two Perth wins this summer; made the running in the second of those, which might be an option open to him here, as it was when he ran creditably at Hexham on Tuesday.
