11st 12lb |
Built upon promise shown for Rebecca Menzies when winning Musselburgh handicap (2m4f, good to soft) by 24l on last month's stable debut; tackles stronger opposition and has penalty to carry here but still respected. |

Showed enough in qualifying runs to be competitive on handicap debut at Sedgefield but found little (2m5f, good to soft); left Rebecca Menzies since; still time for better but takes on high-flying rivals. |

Musselburgh winner off 5lb lower in November and fair efforts since; could go well but has his quirks (refused to line up and was withdrawn at Musselburgh last time). |

10st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner (including this race in 2024); good third to Halfway House over C&D in May, after a break, but pulled up after looking reluctant (not for the first time) at Hexham last month and comes with risk. |

Won off this mark (beat No Regrets by a neck) over C&D in May 2023; struggled last year, often pulling up, but gave an indication he's back in better shape when third to the in-form Halfway House Lad at Cartmel (3m1f, good; 20-1) a fortnight ago; worthy of inspection. |

Showed more than the distance beaten suggests at Ayr in December; floundered on heavy ground next time but won with something to spare on handicap debut back at Ayr last month (2m, soft); up 7lb; pedigree strongly suggests return to further will suit; major player. |

Dual winner over fences at Doncaster on good; yet to win over hurdles and this is his first run in this sphere since March 2023; possibly better for this race before a summer campaign over fences. |

Big progress as hurdler initially last term (2m4f-3m) and also won handicaps when switched to chasing for first two starts this season (up to an extended 2m5f); 12-1 but unseated early for 3m Grade 1 novice at Kempton on Boxing Day (has similar Cheltenham entry); has a question to answer with new trip but, barring mishaps, best days are still ahead of him. |

Back-to-back winner at Bellewstown (2m1f, yielding) and Down Royal (2m2f, good) in April/May; decent C&D effort on penultimate when a clear runner-up off this mark; pulled up here last time though, so hard to know what to expect now. |

Veteran finally made the breakthrough in 2m1f Bellewstown handicap in April and duly followed up at Down Royal off 5lb higher; solid C&D run since off further 8lb higher mark when chasing home a clear-cut winner; contender again. |
