Form & Verdict
Tailed off on chase debut at Catterick (3m1f, heavy) last month but was well backed, and again attracted market support when back on better ground and winning at Leicester (2m6f, good) three weeks ago; this unexposed 6yo is open to further improvement and has likeable claims off 5lb higher here.

Takes on possible improvers in this field; otherwise a solid candidate who has five chase wins on his CV, the most recent off current mark in this race 12 months ago; last two efforts show he's back in form; respected.

Scored for the fifth time over fences when taking a Wetherby handicap (3m, good) just under a year ago; made a solid return in November and he was back down to that last winning mark when bumping into an improver at Southwell (about 3m1f, soft) three weeks ago; contender.

Won three chases in the spring (2m4f-3m) and has posted some good efforts in defeat since; he simply didn't jump well enough when upped to 3m6f four weeks ago but he can bounce back if he gets into a better rhythm here.

T: David Dennis

Veteran who has turned things around over fences recently, with a win at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) followed by a second on similar ground at Plumpton (3m1f); now returns to hurdling but she's lightly raced in this sphere and looks interesting off the same mark as last time.

Out of sorts initially this season but she wasn't without her supporters when back to form and winning at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) two weeks ago, and the 5lb rise looks manageable in her follow-up bid; leading contender if in the same frame of mind.

Form & Verdict
Sent straight over fences for handicap debut at Leicester (2m6f, good) and showed improved form to finish a 9l fifth behind Mixedwave; needs to take another step forward but that's entirely possible if he jumps better.

Yet to be placed after ten starts under rules but ran well when ninth of 15 over C&D (good; beaten under 9l) in first-time visor last month and has possibilities off a 3lb lower mark today; tongue-tie refitted.
