Form & Verdict
Unbeaten in two chases (in blinkers) and last month's Uttoxeter success proved he can win away from Hexham; up another 7lb but looks worth it and every reason to expect him to make another bold bid from the front.

Multiple winner but his first success beyond about 2m when making all for a 9l victory over C&D 23 days ago; back up 7lb but had dropped to a good mark.

All eight jump wins have been at around 2m; lost his chance by jumping right when stepped up to 2m4f at Aintree last time (finished a well-beaten sixth); will be better going right-handed; 21lb lower than for his last win (August 2024) and stable in form, but a bit to prove.

Form & Verdict
Instant success on joining this yard when beating three rivals at Cartmel last month and went down fighting at Stratford nine days ago; clearly in fine form and has every chance off just 1lb higher.

Hard-fought win back over hurdles at Hexham (2m) before a 10l defeat returned to fences; no great significance in the return of cheekpieces (blinkered last two races) but entitled to have some say.

Won this race off today's mark a year ago (good; first-time blinkers) and reverts to chasing after hard-fought hurdle win here (2m, good; refitted blinkers) a fortnight ago; obvious contender.

J: Jonathan England

Won over fences here (2m, good; in first-time blinkers - two finished) last June; runner-up at Newcastle (2m4f) in April, but low key at Kelso subsequently; returns to hurdles for the first time since finishing tailed off over C&D last October; others more appealing.

Form & Verdict
Smart hurdler at best; mixed messages in four chasing attempts but not beaten far in the latest, on final start for Gordon Elliott three weeks ago; bought for £22,000 since and interesting to see what James Owen, who has made hay this summer, can make of him.

Only an 8yo but his rating has capitulated during the last two years and his recent form is nowhere near good enough for a test of this magnitude.

Grade 2 hurdle winner in 2020 and bits of form in better races than this in recent times; out of sorts in the autumn but he might well have pegged back Forest Chimes at Stratford (2m5f, heavy) last week with a better jump at the last; this stiffer test can suit; can go well.
