J: Freddie Gingell

T: Paul Nicholls

Had struggled badly in recent years but belatedly showed a smart level of ability remains when second over C&D (soft) in first-time blinkers (retained) four weeks ago; put back up 4lb but retains handicapping scope if building on that, with his top stable's good form providing hope that he can.

J: Miss Olive Nicholls

T: Paul Nicholls

Won a Grade 1 novice hurdle and Grade 2 novice chase in 2023; his mark continues to tumble but for good reason and a major revival is required with first-time blinkers replacing cheekpieces.

J: Paul O’Brien

T: Paul Nicholls

Won Grade 1 novice hurdle at the 2023 Cheltenham Festival (3m, soft) and made a promising start to chasing career last season, when he continued to look all about stamina; his career has taken a spectacular wrong turn since but there was a slight hint last time of getting back on track.

J: Harry Cobden

T: Paul Nicholls

Won the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle (3m, soft) at the Festival in 2023 and made promising start to chasing career last season; pulled up on final two starts last term and over hurdles on sole run this season, but he's had various excuses (dirty scope; respiratory issue; lack of a recent run) and is not ruled out for his top trainer off what could be a handy mark.
