Form & Verdict
Huntingdon regular; caught the attention of the stewards there (2m, good) when finishing off strongly last time; has progressed steadily over hurdles and makes the switch to fences from a career-high mark; interesting to see what he makes of this new challenge; shortlisted.

J: Tom Bellamy

Course winner over hurdles; returned from long absence with low-key hurdle run last month but is now 1lb lower than when scoring on chase debut in May 2024; contender if that recent outing brought him on.

Form & Verdict
Drew considerable benefit from his Cheltenham run in April and was closing in fast on a bang-in-form winner (Fiston De Becon) on recent Warwick chasing debut (2m, good); a 2lb rise is no barrier to success with the promise of more improvement to come and he has soft-ground form; major player.

Won twice for the Skeltons; showed his best form for his current yard when fifth of eight at Warwick (2m, good) 26 days ago; his mark continues to drop and he should find another opening at some point.

Form & Verdict
Course hurdle form figures read 12; made all on chasing debut at Hereford (2m5f, good to soft) in March and creditable third from 3lb higher at Huntingdon; cheekpieces are newly applied seeking that extra edge.

Won off a similar mark at Hereford (chase debut) in March; folded tamely and well beaten on latest outing; had wind surgery (his second) since so may be able to rebound.

Four chase wins (from 14 attempts); has seemingly found himself stranded too high in the weights since scoring at Worcester (2m, good) in October 2022; back to his last winning mark after unseating rider early on at Plumpton last September; fitness is taken on trust.

Should be well handicapped, likes good ground and returned to form with a pleasing second at Newton Abbot; often takes a good hold so the assured strong pace here will aid his chance.

Did not hit top gear during light campaign last season and was well beaten (albeit on soft ground) last month, after a break; on good mark now and might be seen to better effect if the ground stays good here but others have much less to prove.
