Form dipped sharply the last twice (hurdles/fences) but a revival looks possible off current mark with Brian Hughes up for first time; well treated on peak performances and can't be dismissed.

Well beaten in two chase starts in 2021; ran okay in her latest handicap hurdle at Down Royal but she's 2-32 overall and looks best watched on this return to fences.

J: P J O’Hanlon

T: S R B Crawford

Won twice in novice hurdle company in Britain; has run some solid races this decent including when third of 11 at Catterick last time; visor needs to eke out a bit more and very best form is at 2m4f.

Normally consistent enough but 2m4f on soft ground wasn't ideal at Fairyhouse 13 days ago (cheekpieces left off, as today) and her two hurdle wins came in novice company last year; vulnerable on balance.

J: Alan Doyle

T: Lisa Harrison

Returned to form at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) on Wednesday, when he was reeled in after blasting off in front but kept on gamely for second; also suited by this C&D and a recent 2lb drop has now taken effect but he had a hard race at Perth and has become inconsistent.

J: Alan Doyle

T: Lisa Harrison

Veteran; 12-94, four of those wins coming at his beloved Perth; showed up well for much of the contest at Hexham (2m, soft; third, beaten 33l) on Saturday evening, before tiring markedly on the uphill climb; the better ground is in his favour here but this is a quick turnaround.

12yo whose seven wins have been registered at either Market Rasen or Carlisle; latest was last April and she's now 9lb lower after a lean spell, but there were major signs of a revival on latest start before she fell (held in second at the final flight); considered but this may not be her track.

A three-time C&D scorer, including in this race 12 months ago; well below par this term, coming in last of 14 over C&D 20 days ago but this veteran mare still can't be totally dismissed from a plummeting mark.
