Form & Verdict
Impressive when winning by 22l over C&D (good) in December despite her jockey riding without irons over the last three fences (second won next time); far from disgraced when fourth of five in a Listed mares' chase at Exeter (3m, good) last month and much respected back in a handicap; has won twice on heavy.

Has run well on good ground here and won at Sandown (3m, good to soft) in March; reappeared with solid third at Exeter (3m, good to soft) last month and she should be fine with today's test (albeit well beaten 12 months ago); 2lb out of the handicap but not discounted for bang-in-form yard.

11st 12lb

J: Freddie Gingell

T: Joe Tizzard

Thorough stayer who gained last season's chasing win at Sandown (3m, good to soft) in March; not quite in same form at Plumpton later that month but has good record when fresh and begins her new campaign on a workable mark; had wind operation in August; good chance.

OR: 108

Form & Verdict
Bumper/dual hurdle winner who was having her fourth start over fences and first since wind surgery when third of four at Taunton (2m6f, good) this month; softer ground suits her better so conditions should be ideal, but she does need to improve again with blinkers now given a go.

J: Chad Bament

T: Anthony Honeyball

Ran well on first four starts last season, latterly over an extended 2m7f, and she was back to that peak form when winning in clearcut style at Sandown (2m4f, heavy) six weeks ago under claimer Chad Bament; respected even though she's up 5lb and may well need a career best.

OR: 104

Form & Verdict
Made a winning chase debut at Hereford (3m1f, good to soft) in November, but finished around 30l behind Rose Of Arcadia when third of five over this C&D (good) next time and jumped poorly when second of four at Huntingdon (3m, good) last month; hard to see her bridging the gap with her old rival.

Now 2lb lower than when clear second to Shirocco's Dream in similar race to this over C&D (good) in November but has lost her way since, and ought to have coped better with the heavy ground when pulled up last month.

J: Tom Bellamy

Did well to finish second at Hereford (3m1f, good) in November, after some sketchy early jumping, but was struggling before coming to grief on next outing and suffered heavy defeat when back over hurdles last time; comes here with questions to answer and would appeal more on better ground.

Form: -61511

Last run: 36 days

W: 11st 3lb

7 yo Mare

OR: 109

Form & Verdict
Has taken well to fences with wins at Taunton (2m7f, good to soft) in December and Kempton (3m, good) last month; only 3lb higher in her hat-trick bid and may still have more to offer, but ground worse than good to soft would pose a question.

Won back-to-back handicap chases (2m7f/3m) on right-handed tracks two winters ago and she may prefer going that way round; modest form of late in cheekpieces and now tries blinkers.
