Won twice over hurdles in spring 2023 (2m4f/3m2f) but has lost her way in this sphere and, although she made the frame on the Flat in July, she makes only limited appeal from 11lb out of the weights here.

Just 1-17 over hurdles but runner-up over C&D (good to soft) last month after a break and his lesser effort at Warwick 16 days later can be excused by the soft ground; conditions set to suit today; firmly in calculations.

Just 1-16 over hurdles and the forecast soft ground poses a question, but he returned to form when second at Sedgefield (3m3f, good to soft) a fortnight ago and can be in the mix if backing up that performance.

Came good with clearcut win at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) in June and was very close second in quite valuable contest at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft) the following month; good claims if judged on that evidence but needs to bounce back from a poor run a fortnight ago.

Flat winner at up to 1m4f; well-beaten fourth in a maiden hurdle here in March (2m, soft) having finished a creditable fourth in a Huntingdon handicap on previous start (2m, good; tended to jump right); not sure to be suited by the return to 2m4f.
