Two wins at the end of last year and only 2lb higher than for the second of them; didn't fare at all badly when third over C&D in May, after a break, and a strong contender on that, especially with cheekpieces refitted.

Recorded his fourth hurdle win when battling well at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good; 8-1) two weeks ago but that was a very narrow success and he's 3lb higher on this step back up in grade; has some work to do.

Triple hurdle winner who made all at Bangor (2m7f) last July but he has a patchy record since and was a remote third at Southwell (3m, good) last time; now 2lb lower than for last win but he comes with risks attached; has won on good and soft ground.

Disappointed at Uttoxeter this month but had been steadily progressive before that; still on a feasible mark and Bradley Harris takes off 8lb so plenty going for him if the latest effort can be forgiven.

Placed three times over C&D in the second half of last year and definite claims on those efforts; not much in two starts this spring (struggling when race voided over hurdles here last month) but on a tempting mark now; often races lazily and has services of Sam Twiston-Davies for first time.

Much improved by a tongue-strap when second at Worcester in May and winning by 19l at Uttoxeter last month; took a heavy fall at the former track latest (held at the time) but can be considered if none the worse for that.

Kept on well to open account at Southwell (3m, good; first-time tongue-tie) ten days ago, her 11th chase and her 27th career start; it's hard to tell whether she'll build on that success but, nevertheless, she enters calculations; carries 7lb penalty but due to go up by that much anyway.
