Patchy profile since last win over a year ago and hard to envisage a return to form from so far out of the weights.

Form & Verdict
Points winner who made an encouraging start in this sphere when twice runner-up in Cartmel handicaps in the summer; tried in cheekpieces when only eighth in 2m5f Market Rasen handicap last time though so he needs to bounce back.

Placed off reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) in September before running no race at Hereford only ten days ago; bit risky on the back of that effort.

Not firing on all cylinders this year but was placed off much-reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) last month and has very obvious each-way claims if in similar form again here.

J: Sean Bowen

T: Ryan Potter

Three-time chase winner on good ground in 2023 (2m1f-2m5f); had been out of form this year but dropped to a dangerous mark and took second over C&D yesterday, which puts him firmly in the mix again.

Form & Verdict
Opened his chase account at Market Rasen in June and got back on track when runner-up over C&D 26 days ago; he needs to back it up now nudged up 1lb.

Dual points scorer but she has shown only poor form over hurdles and fences, remote third of four in 3m Perth handicap hurdle 22 days ago; she goes back chasing now and needs to step forward.
