On a hat-trick having won for today's rider at Wetherby in March (1m7f, good) and at Market Rasen in April (2m3f, good); has gone up 10lb, but these conditions suit and he could go well again.

Somewhat similar to Zero Tolerance, being an exposed sort whose chase record is 0-8; the difference is that he's a five-time hurdles winner, most recently off 5lb higher at Wetherby (2m3f) in October; recent form suggests this drop in trip is worth exploring; interesting back here.

Form & Verdict
Took nine attempts to open chasing account but the form of his win at Kempton (2m2f, good) three weeks ago was nicely boosted by the runner-up on Saturday, and this fellow is still on a good mark after a 3lb rise.

Finally came good over fences at Kempton (2m2f, good) and nearly followed up at Market Rasen, albeit when odds-on for a four-runner race; nudged up another 3lb for that defeat but still one to consider.

Record of 0-8 over rules fences but form is largely consistent and this second run since wind surgery may be the time to catch him, especially with Sean Bowen up for first time; interesting today.

Form & Verdict
Not an instant success over fences this season but cheekpieces seem to have helped lately and he won by 5l off a reduced mark here (2m1f, good to soft) last month; moves up in grade today but should be fine over the longer trip and might use that recent success as a springboard.

Lightly raced 8yo; dropped to 2m1f from 2m4f he ran better to be beaten about 12l at Market Rasen (2m1f, soft) a month ago; down 3lb with cheekpieces fitted and more appealing than a good many.

Got right back on the up when making it 2-3 over fences in C&D handicap two weeks ago; hiked up 8lb but well on top at the finish there so he's a big player for stable well among the winners.

Disappointing at Taunton (2m, good to soft) last month but reportedly unsuited by that tight track; prior to that he won here (2m, good to soft) on his chase debut, and his last two hurdle wins came over 2m3f; has a strong record at this course and could play a leading role now back here.
