Form & Verdict
Landed a soft/heavy-ground hat-trick (including two wins under Dylan Kitts) in the winter, latterly off 8lb lower, and has continued in form off his revised mark since; won't mind the drop back in trip, so needs considering.

Generally very disappointing since returning from long absence in the autumn but took step back in right direction when respectable fourth (just behind Onehundredneighty) at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) last month and remains very well handicapped.

Dual 2m3f chase winner at start of 2024 (heavy/good to soft) but out of sorts since returning from long layoff this season; reverts to hurdling on tempting mark but needs a revival.

J: Miss Victoria Malzard

Began 2024 with two 2m3f Exeter wins and was subsequently placed over C&D; very well handicapped on those heroics but returned from long layoff with three disappointing runs this season and needs a revival; swaps usual cheekpieces for blinkers.

Form & Verdict
Jumped better from the front when winning off 6lb lower last time but hasn't always been foot-perfect and can go left; hard to knock this season's efforts all told but it's hard to be sure the recent rain will have worked in his favour.

Won three times over fences last season and the latest was off 6lb higher; however, has something to prove now having been off colour in both disciplines since returning from a lengthy break.

10st 11lb

J: Rex Dingle

T: Chris Gordon

Did well over fences last season, winning three times; below form here last month, after a layoff, but might have needed that outing and usual cheekpieces are refitted for this bid to exploit his lower hurdle mark.

6 yo Gelding

OR: 96

Form & Verdict
0-4 in points and 0-6 under rules but he's done better since returned to fences this year; was inclined to pull hard under more patient tactics last time and it wouldn't surprise to see a more aggressive ride back down in trip in first-time headgear.

Opened his chase account at Fontwell (2m2f) last April but he's failed to kick on subsequently, well held in second when unseating 2 out at Plumpton (2m1f) four weeks ago; his mark is slipping but more is needed.
