Form & Verdict
Fair chaser at his best; has regressed and become very inconsistent but is on a very good mark now and this first run after a break could be a good time to catch him; refitted cheekpieces replace blinkers; best on ground slower than good; well worth a second look.

Form & Verdict
Came good with win from off the pace at Stratford (2m6f, good to soft) last month and placed twice at Worcester since (2m4f/2m7f, good), latterly behind Ya Know Yaseff; should cope if the ground turns soft and ought to be in the shake-up again.

Three-time chase winner (including C&D), but he's been well held over fences and hurdles in last three runs; made a mistake at a crucial stage at Southwell last time but he needs to get right back near his best on this return to fences.

T: Grace Harris

Three chase wins last season, the latest gained at Taunton (2m7f, good to soft) in November; has 6lb lower hurdle mark but remains without a win in this discipline after 17 attempts and tends to need his first run back from a break (absent since December); others make more appeal.

Returned to chasing with comfortable win in first-time blinkers at Worcester (2m7f, good) at start of this month and followed up under penalty in conditional jockeys' race at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good to soft) last week; escapes a penalty for the latter success and is effectively 1lb lower here; obvious contender.

Hit the ground running when first tried in blinkers, winning twice (2m7f, good; 3m2f, good to soft); patchy since but two runs back she was runner-up on soft at Wincanton (3m1f) and that brings her into it.

Won twice when fitted with blinkers in September (2m7f/3m2f) and looked as good as ever when second at Wincanton (3m1f, soft) last month; not one to rely upon heavily but will be fine on today's ground and features prominently in calculations.
