Form & Verdict
Bumper winner whose progression over hurdles came when upped in trip, four-timer last autumn in handicaps came on yielding or softer; never travelled when pulled up at Uttoxeter early this month; drop in trip hardly ideal here on chasing debut but comfortably the best of these over hurdles and looks the one to beat.

Five-time winner and very consistent over flights; no match for Joyeux Machin in a 3m hurdle at Wexford; respectable debut over fences when second in a beginners at Kilbeggan; should improve for that and be a factor here.

Dual chase winner over 2m4f on good ground and stays 3m; had place prospects when coming down two out in a Grade 2 handicap at Haydock last month; cheekpieces fitted then are left off, as she goes back up in trip; Slevin rides for first time and yard in fine form.

Has faced stiff tasks over hurdles on her last two starts in races won by Wodhooh and Feet Of A Dancer; has a bit to prove on the wellbeing front as her runs before those (chasing and hurdling) weren't her best, but both her chase wins have been on good ground at about this trip and this Irish raider now goes in cheekpieces.
