12st 0lb |
Won this in 2023 (good to soft) and bagged further hunter chase wins in the same Stratford race in May 2024 and 2025 (2m6f, good); won a point last month and he's better than he showed when tailed off in this last April, but this 11yo probably isn't as good as he once was and others are preferred. |

11st 13lb |
Among the very best hunter chasers in his prime, with career highlight a success over the big Aintree fences in April 2023; beat Imperial Esprit to win this race under Izzie Hill in 2024 and has collected three point wins this year but last month's Aintree run was very disappointing and he may not be as good as he was; sports first-time cheekpieces. |

12st 1lb |
Exposed, but also placed in hunter chases on last three visits to Stratford (all sub-3m) and notably a winner during May in each of the previous three years; respected, for all that there's not huge substance to some of this spring's successes (two conditions events and a walkover). |

Gave very good account when second to Famous Clermont in this race in 2024 and also ran well when third over C&D (again on good) last month; returns here after a recent point success; can make his presence felt. |

31st May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Grand old stager who has run well at several Cheltenham Festivals; not as good as he was and beaten 20l in the big one this March, but he won this 12 months ago and defends on the back of two point wins. |

Festival regular having made the frame in the Ultima, a Kim Muir and three editions of this race (beaten 3l by Premier Magic 12 months ago); warmed up for another crack with his sixth point win 12 days ago; however, now a 14yo, his chance of getting his hands on the treasured trophy has surely passed. |

Won the novice hunter chase on this card 12 months ago when on a roll; doesn't return in quite the same form and this should take a lot more winning. |

Has won his last five, namely four point-to-points and one hunter chase; it's hard to knock that record but they were all on good ground and others in this line-up possess stronger rules form; improvement needed. |
