Form & Verdict
Ended last season with two disappointing chase runs and made low-key reappearance over hurdles a fortnight ago, but switches back to fences on a good mark and has possibilities here if that recent outing has brought him on; seems versatile regarding trip/ground.

Well handicapped on some of last season's form but had fortune on his side when winning at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in September and has been safely held twice since; should be fine over today's trip but needs to up his game; tongue-tie fitted.

Made it 2-10 over fences when scoring at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in September but the clear leader fell two out in that race and this 7yo came up well short in his follow-up bid at Bangor last month; others preferred.

Form & Verdict
Kept on well for second at Worcester (2m, good) in July and has pretty good claims here if judged on that performance, but was no match for comfortable winner when second in two-finisher event three weeks ago and this rather disappointing mare is now 0-8 over fences; raced mainly on good ground in Britain but won a French hurdle on very soft in 2021.

Easily the most experienced over fences, and a 2m4f win here (good) off 17lb higher rounded off a spring 2024 hat-trick; no successes since, however, and it's a push to say this step up to 3m has long been needed.

J: Kevin Brogan

T: Jonjo & A J O’Neill

Completed chase hat-trick in spring 2024 but generally disappointing since; May's second of three at Ludlow (2m4f, good) was encouraging but she's been soundly beaten since and was weak in the market when an early casualty over C&D last month; easy to look elsewhere.

Form & Verdict
Arguably ran better than 24l defeat might suggest when third at Fontwell (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and is now back on same mark as when winning at Perth (2m4f, good) in May after a layoff; copes with ground slower than good; could have a say.

Winless since summer 2022 but he's generally reliable and often placed, though he has to be forgiven a lesser effort at Worcester (2m4f, good) last time; not the force of old, but he's handicapped accordingly and capable of bouncing back.
