10st 10lb

J: Mark Walsh

T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero

Improved his rating in every one of his eight chases, winning four and that includes the 2m4f Plate at last year's Cheltenham Festival; first venture much beyond 2m5f had to wait until his return to Cheltenham last month, in which he came from out the back to get within half a length of the winner Johnnywho; that showed he stays 3m1f and suggested he's still capable of better, but his jumping contained unnerving moments; wears cheekpieces first time and a half-brother probably stays 4m.

11st 9lb

J: Mark Walsh

T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero

Highly progressive switched to fences last season, a campaign that culminated in a convincing win in the Plate here (2m4f, good to soft) in March; he's kept on well over 2m4f here (good to soft/soft) on both runs this season, beaten just a head last time when 10l clear of the third; today's first crack at a staying trip could prompt further improvement; lots to like.

T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero

Highly progressive 7yo; won at this meeting on soft ground 12 months ago and followed up in the Plate at the Festival; extended his run of excellent C&D efforts with an unlucky third six weeks ago, finishing well after making the odd mistake and being short of room; leading contender again off just 1lb higher.

10st 10lb

J: Jonjo O’Neill Jr

T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero

Strong traveller who lost his unbeaten chase record to a smart one at Uttoxeter in December but he got into a nice rhythm round here when settling the argument quite convincingly over C&D (soft) in January; raised 7lb and he's closely matched with the third Masaccio but still rates an improver.

11st 3lb

J: Jonjo O’Neill Jr

T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero

Unsuccessful in his hat-trick bid at Uttoxeter in December but he was running well when almost coming down at the last; previously impressive at Bangor (2m4f, soft) in November and this lightly raced 6yo may not have reached his limit just yet; one of two serious contenders for his stable.
