Beaten a head in this race last year off 129 on preferred soft ground; pulled up final two outings last term and didn't count (blood in nostrils) on last month's comeback run over hurdles; entitled to come on for that but legitimate questions to answer at this stage and ideally wants softer ground. |

10st 10lb |
Worcester winner last summer off 4lb higher (2m4f) but below that level since and merely stayed on at the one pace for a remote third at Bangor last month (2m4f); won't mind returning to further but could do with the rain staying away. |

Worcester mares' chase win off 2lb higher last July (2m4f, good) but well below that level since, any benefit of the wind surgery negated in part by mistakes on last month's Uttoxeter outing; others preferred. |
