Form & Verdict
Without a win since collecting a good prize on the Flat in September 2022 but has been consistent over hurdles this year; bumped into an improver and pulled a long way clear of the others when second at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) in September; ought to be on the premises again.

Doing surprisingly well over fences as he's not bred for them; he might just be a shade high in the weights now after his hat-trick bid came up shy in a three-runner race but he must still have some sort of chance on ground he handles.

Not bred for fences but has collected small-field chase wins on soft ground at Plumpton (2m1f) and Fontwell (2m2f) in recent weeks, and may be even better suited by the forecast good ground on this hat-trick attempt.

Plenty of short-priced defeats to go with his sole win over hurdles; ended a losing run when winning over fences at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) last time, off a 4lb lower mark, but needs to build on that against a couple of progressive rivals.

2-6 for new stable since the spring, the latter win gained at Southwell (2m, good) last month; nudged up only 2lb for that success and features prominently in calculations here.

Largely below par since scoring at Huntingdon (2m4f) last May but he wasn't disgraced when third of five in 2m2f Fontwell handicap last month; needs to build on it now.

Three-time hurdle winner on good ground; arguably ran better than eventual 48l defeat suggests when third at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) last month, after a layoff, and has become well handicapped; could have a say if that recent outing brought him on.

Won in a small field off 3lb higher at Huntingdon last May (2m3f) but mostly struggled afterwards in cheekpieces and latterly in a visor; clearly a form contender if he's all the better for a wind operation.

Form & Verdict
Consistent over hurdles and on the Flat this year; holds no secrets from the handicapper but last month's Wincanton fourth (2m5f, good) was perfectly respectable and she'll be fine over today's shorter trip; probably won't be far away.

Hasn't won in more than two years and needs to bounce back from a quiet run over hurdles three weeks ago; is a deal lower in the weights than for a couple of runs over C&D last winter but may be on the downgrade and wants a good test over this trip.

Form & Verdict
Won against own age group at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) last December and bettered that form when clear second on handicap hurdle debut at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) in February; may not have been ideally suited by heavy ground when respectable fourth on recent seasonal debut and she can pose a potent threat here.
