Form & Verdict
Won twice over hurdles in March (2m3f, good/good to soft) and has done well on the Flat since, with the latest of three wins gained in a Class 2 event in September (2m, soft); spoiled his chance by racing far too freely on recent return to hurdling but can be very dangerous off his current mark if/when he settles better.

J: Jude Fernandes

T: Gary & Josh Moore

Well held over hurdles in last three runs but he's won plenty under both codes including three over C&D; still 3lb higher than for his win here last June but he needs watching in market back on the Flat; effective on good/good to firm but most of his wins have come on slow ground.

Won plenty under both codes, including over C&D, and has slid to an attractive mark; this is less competitive than the races he's been contesting of late and he's one of the likelier winners back up in trip.

Five-time hurdle winner who returned to form with clear second at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) in December; only seventh of 12 at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) but didn't run badly and he's not discounted.

Form & Verdict
Flopped badly when warm favourite for last month's chasing debut and is now 0-12 overall but he ran well when second off today's mark over hurdles at Fakenham (2m4f, good) on seasonal debut in October and has possibilities if coping with the drop back in trip.

J: Sean Quinlan

Runner-up at Sedgefield in November and not disgraced on penultimate start, but those are the only bright spots in his last nine races; reverts from chasing (last five starts); overall he's won just one (a hurdle race last May) of 47 and today he is 3lb out of the handicap.

Form & Verdict
Runner-up in the last four of his five handicaps, most recently in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Doncaster (2m3f, good) 12 days ago; latest 2lb rise doesn't help but today's trip-and-ground combination should also suit and he ought to be right in the thick of things again.

Dug deep to pip progressive rival at Kempton (2m, good to soft) in February and will be fine on the forecast slower ground here, but she was below form on latest outing in May and her record when fresh is not compelling.

Both wins (19 starts) came very narrowly, most recently at Kempton last February; had been runner-up at 50-1 in this race on heavy ground the time before; refused to line up once in October and well beaten in early December but an each-way case can be made.

Form & Verdict
Looked back in good form when second at Hexham (2m, good) in April but was sold out of James Ewart's for £1,000 after a disappointing run the following month; goes without cheekpieces (worn for both wins) on today's stable debut and would appeal more on good ground.

Six-time course winner, all on good ground (2m1f-2m2f); left behind a couple of poor efforts earlier in the year when a respectable fourth over 2m5f here in May but refused to line up when withdrawn here three weeks ago; well handicapped on old form and hard to dismiss if in the mood.
