Form & Verdict
Two minor wins over hurdles last season but went on to run quite well in the 3m Grade 1 novice at Aintree; definite signs of returning to form when a running-on fifth over 3m here last month and fully entitled to be as effective over fences.

Bounced back from disappointing stable debut when second in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell (3m, good to soft) in December but was quickly back in the doldrums on next outing and has become hard to predict.

Completing the course has not come easily since he won a handicap chase at Newbury in March 2023 and has been very flat over hurdles this season; has a good bit to prove.

Form & Verdict
Won both his handicaps over hurdles and has matched that record over fences with two front-running victories at Chepstow (3m2f/2m7f); jumps well and has some physical presence about him; up the weights (two 8lb rises) but should keep progressing.

J: Jack Hogan

Chasing career highlights include a C&D novice handicap and the same Cheltenham April 3m2f event two years running, all on good; 3lb below his last winning mark, but has a listless recent return run to forgive.

Veteran; last two wins came in the same 3m2f Cheltenham race in April 2024 and 2025; ran a lacklustre race there in October before possibly failing to stay 3m5f at Ascot; bit to prove after four months off.

10st 13lb

J: Jonathan Burke

T: Fergal O’Brien

Has a good record fresh and a good record at Cheltenham, albeit on the New course and he was pulled up on his only run on the Old one (today's course); on a useful mark and didn't run badly during the summer at Uttoxeter, which wouldn't be his track.

8 yo Mare

OR: 120

Form & Verdict
Four-time hurdle winner (all on good or firmer) who has come up against useful mares in her two chases, faring best on the first occasion; not on a bad mark and she's had wind surgery, but drier ground would be preferred.

J: Tom Cannon

T: Alan King

Won at Wincanton (2m5f, good to firm) in November 2022 on last hurdle start and was bang there when falling at the final fence at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) last April when last seen; stays 3m and is effective on good to soft ground; a good record when fresh further heightens interest.

OR: 131

Form & Verdict
Beat a subsequent winner over 2m4f at Leicester (good; also won on soft) but seemingly found out by the 7lb rise when third at Wetherby (2m3f), albeit in a competitive small-field affair; placed in a point but might be sent up trip more in hope than expectation.

The cheekpieces had been working well in handicaps at about 2m4f before he came up well short in a strong handicap at Cheltenham 19 days ago; didn't stay 3m here when trying it once before but conditions will be quicker this time and that should help.

The cheekpieces are working well as he's been competitive in his last three races at about this distance; however, he's come up short in weaker races than this the last twice and Harry Skelton could have ridden him.
