Twice a winner over hurdles and won a Down Royal Flat maiden last year; made a really encouraging reappearance after 10 months off when just worn down up the hill in a beginners chase here on Tuesday; very interesting runner if he pulls out again. |

Inconsistent but he won at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last July and returned from a break with a close third here (2m5f, soft) on Boxing Day, staying on nicely; he's fine at this trip; not his fault when unseating mid-race at Haydock last month; could be involved. |

Usually claimer ridden but now has Harry Cobden; the last of her ten wins was in August 2022; still shows plenty on occasions, including when seventh in the Pertemps Final last March and a close second back at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) three starts back; pulled up with cheekpieces enlisted on latest start; that headgear is now discarded but she's not the percentage call. |

Has returned from an absence this season and failed to threaten, finishing tenth in the Coral Cup last month; however, his top Irish yard has a good record in this race and he may yet have a bigger run in him, having been a Listed novice hurdle winner in October 2021. |

Three hurdle wins in 2021 as a novice, in 2m5f Listed race at Limerick (soft) on third occasion, and creditable fourth in Grade 2 novice over C&D that November; not seen again until well beaten in two warm handicaps in December (18-1 and 16-1) but he showed that some ability remains on first occasion and he's not written off yet. |
