Dual chase winner in late 2021 (small fields) but his two subsequent wins have been over hurdles, as was his reappearance when a 12l fourth at Plumpton (3m1f, soft); that could have teed him up nicely for this but others have more going for them.

Form & Verdict
Arrived here in much better form 12 months ago and in first-time cheekpieces he got the job done by a length at the expense of Cap Du Nord; later finished second in the Scottish Grand National when 2lb higher; no signs of any of that form this season but perhaps another change of headgear can work the oracle.

Form & Verdict
Lost his first eight chases but came good at Galway in October (heavy) and followed up in a competitive 3m1f handicap at Cheltenham (soft); should have been fine on the good ground at Ascot (3m) two days before Christmas but he dropped away up the straight; he's better than that.

Two-time chase winner hasn't got his head in front since November 2023; hasn't looked like ending the dry spell in two starts for this stable; beaten 54l at Killarney latest; cheekpieces tried.

Four wins, split evenly between chasing and hurdles; losing run stretches back to November 2023 and debut for this yard was forgettable, as were his final runs for previous one.

Form & Verdict
Missed last season; has dropped to a favourable mark and ran well behind an improving mare last time at Kempton (3m, good to soft); looks to be coming to the boil and could go well at a price.

Shaped well on seasonal debut at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) in October and was very respectable fifth at Cheltenham (3m1f, good) later that month; didn't fire when back at Cheltenham 18 days ago but this race is less competitive and he's on a good mark.

Won this in 2021 and he hasn't run badly on his two starts this autumn, latest when 14l fifth of 18 over C&D (good); however, he needs a bigger performance today if he's to snap an 11-race losing sequence.
