Form & Verdict
Irish point and Hereford bumper scorer last term; 20l clear of the remainder when running another potentially useful one in Choccabloc to a short head on last month's Ludlow hurdling debut (2m5f, good to soft) and that makes him the clear pick on form, bringing potential too.

Better chaser than hurdler, third win coming in 3m Kempton handicap in January (good); better again when second in better-class contest over same C&D following month, disappointingly never counted in Ultima at Cheltenham latest; possibly best going right-handed so could go well here, especially if ground continues to dry out.

Won at Kempton (3m, good) in January and good second in competitive handicap there (3m, good to soft) last month; could give another good account but he didn't quite stay when fifth here (extended 3m2f, good to soft) in December and it's possible he'll again prove vulnerable up the hill.

Closely matched with Deep Cave on their Bangor clash in November (soft) and, back at 3m from 3m2f, he dug deep for a course win last month (good); only went up 1lb for that and the runner-up ran well in defeat last weekend at Ascot.

Placed efforts in bumpers last term included two thirds here, one in Listed race, and immediately replicated best form in that sphere with a cosy win in last month's Huntingdon mares' hurdle debut (2m4f, good to soft); live claims again.

Not at the top of her game in the Mares' Hurdle at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) last month but this sort of trip may be her optimum; neck second to Strong Leader at Wetherby (3m, good) in November and creditable third behind Impose Toi and Strong Leader in another Grade 2 at Newbury (3m, soft) later that month; ran well here 12 months ago; each-way claims if back on song.

Won Grade 2 mares' event at Ascot before finishing third to Lossiemouth in this and the Aintree Hurdle (Wodhooh 8l ahead in second) last spring; has slightly bettered those RPRs in defeat on all four outings this season and she's an each-way player again.

Won Grade 2 mares' hurdle at Ascot (1m7f, good) last January and she's looked better than ever when running really well in defeat against males in Grade 2s at Wetherby (3m, good) and Newbury (3m, soft) on last two starts; she'll be fine now back down in trip and may well be in the mix.

Out of a winning 3m2f hurdler, so likely to want a trip in future, but hasn't hit the line too hard when fourth in a bumper and 2m3f maiden hurdle and might appreciate more time.

Sandon 3m maiden point win (good to soft) for the Rowleys at Easter has been scrubbed off as he carried insufficient weight; worth a look here, for all that his future lies in staying chases (grandson of a half-sister to Garrison Savannah).
