Smart performer in Britain back in the day; went point-to-pointing over the winter and held in hunter chases lately; unlikely. |

Very useful hurdler/chaser in Britain in his prime; couldn't contain Lifetime Ambition in a point back in November; fair third to Journey With Me at Cork last month but he went from the front and was readily left behind. |

Very useful hurdler/chaser in Britain in his prime; no appeal on his points form, which has been poor since a 12l second behind good yardstick Lifetime Ambition at Turtulla in November. |

Very useful chaser at his best, last win coming in the 2024 Old Roan Chase at Aintree (2m4f, good); highly tried this term, best run when second in a Listed chase at Kelso in February (2m7f, good to soft); on a fair mark now. |

Inconsistent nowadays but ran well in second when facing an impossible mission behind Protektorat at Kelso (2m7f, good to soft) last time; now 5lb lower than when third in the Old Roan Chase at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) in October and this C&D winner is capable of being involved. |

Smart on his day and ran creditably when third in the Old Roan at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) in October, a race he'd won in 2024; however, two runs since have been poor and he has to concede weight all round. |

Found to have a wound on his leg when last to finish in a 2m6f Grade 2 at Sandown on final appearance; pretty much as good as ever at times last season and succumbed only to Forward Plan in Kempton's big 3m February handicap (soft; effective on good); not handicapped out of this with Callum Pritchard claiming 7lb and he's usually mustard after a break. |

More or less as good as ever in handicaps this season, winning at Chepstow and running a blinder when second in valuable event at Kempton (3m, soft) in February; arrives here relatively fresh and doesn't have much to find on the ratings, even though Dylan Johnston cannot claim his usual 5lb. |

11yo who snapped a losing sequence at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) last month and it was a stronger race than this in which he was fourth of 11 at Haydock (2m4f, good) last Wednesday; every chance he'll be in the mix. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |

Veteran who made his name as a two-miler and the slow pace helped when making his first foray over 3m a successful one at Carlisle (good to soft; effective on good); solid second the run before over 2m4f but a 5lb rise for last time could be troublesome. |

9-28 over fences, the latest win gained at Chepstow (2m7f, good to firm) in October; below that form three times on good to soft ground since but didn't run badly on penultimate appearance and will be better suited by the forecast good ground here; might be the answer. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 2 |

Strike-rate of 9-27 over fences and his third in a veterans' chase at Newbury in February (3m2f) was encouraging given he had been absent for three months and good to soft ground would have been slow enough; should run well. |

Successful in similar event at Chepstow in October (penultimate start) and returns from another break with Rian Corcoran taking off a useful 7lb; however, chance largely depends on what the weather does (ideally needs a sound surface). |

Seven-time chase winner (once here); returned from break with disappointing effort last month but current mark is workable if subsequent wind operation and/or first-time cheekpieces prompt a return to form. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |

He ran well in defeat in the main last year and is effective when fresh; could give a good account on this first start since December but there's been minimal movement in his mark this season and he may again prove vulnerable in this competitive contest. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 7f 185y Class 1 |

Seven-time winner over fences and recent placed efforts in some good 2m5f-2m7f handicaps were bordering on career-best form; highly likely to give his running once more but has an air of vulnerability about him for win purposes. |

Delivered with a well-timed challenge to win major 3m2f handicap at Newbury (good to soft) eight weeks ago, proving suited by the new trip and taking chase record to 3-10; generally progressive and is unexposed beyond 2m4f; possibilities. |

2nd Dec 2023 Good To Soft 3m 1f 214y Class 1 |

Unraced beyond an extended 2m4f and this is a tough race in which to test his stamina; however, he was strong at the finish when winning a Grade 2 novice at Ayr (2m4f, good) in April and may well have staying potential; might have needed his reappearance in the Old Roan and is not ruled out. |

In the same colours when winning a Grade 1 novices' hurdle at this meeting for Dan Skelton four years ago; subsequent progress has been stalled by lengthy absences but he looked back on good terms with himself when not overly troubled to see off Gracchus De Balme and Jet Plane in a hunter chase at Haydock in February; could be dangerous. |

Soundly beaten/pulled up on his two starts last season, following a long absence; however, he won a Grade 1 novice hurdle in April 2021 and also looked very promising over fences later that year; last month's easy point-to-point win hints he could be on his way back; intriguing candidate. |

Winless since December 2023 and pulled up over C&D in December on sole run this term; however, he may have needed that outing and is on a handy mark on last season's best efforts; has won here three times, including in these reapplied cheekpieces, and is not ruled out; the tongue-tie is a first. |

10yo who has become inconsistent and hasn't shone on his last two starts; however, he has a good record over regulation fences here and has the same mark as when winning the Old Roan (2m4f, good to soft) last October; prominent for a fair way in last season's Grand National; not written off. |

Runner-up in this race last year and he ended a long losing sequence in the Old Roan at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) on reappearance; however, he's less consistent than he once was and he was well held in the Peterborough Chase at Huntingdon last time; needs to bounce back from that. |
