J: Jonathan Burke

T: James Owen

Smart 3yo on the Flat; just 1-5 over hurdles, and his habit of racing far too freely remains a worry, but he wasn't beaten far in a valuable novices' handicap at Sandown (2m, good) last month and is in much calmer waters here.

High-class Flat performer at his best who has taken well to hurdles, winning at Huntingdon in December before pulling too hard and disappointing on handicap debut back there two weeks later; key player with Alex Chadwick offsetting 3lb of his penalty now back in novice company.

Not troubled the judge this season but hasn't been running badly, last time behind Native Warrior on the AW in late June; a triple winner on ground softer than good so connections have no doubt been waiting for some rain; worth considering.

Only 2-16 but his third trainer has him in career-best form and didn't get the breaks when a closing fourth at Newcastle last time (1m); hold-up performer who needs a good pace to chase and if getting one he'll be dangerous.

Resurgent for new yard this year, looking unlucky at Newcastle on penultimate start and handing a 2l beating to runner-up Zryan at Southwell (again 1m, Tapeta) on latest; back up another 4lb but the best of his old form was a little better still and he has to be on the shortlist.

Four wins last year from his six 3yo starts and he continued the good work when comfortably making all in a three-runner handicap at Nottingham (2m) on last month's reappearance; unproven on AW and this is a much tougher test of his credentials but he could have lots more left in the tank.

Warmonger

9st 7lb

J: Luke Morris

Not an immediate hit in handicaps but the step up to 2m saw him win twice on turf and once over C&D; foiled in the four-timer at Southwell but he lost nothing in a tenacious defeat to one who is now 3-3 at distances beyond 2m (first two well clear); up another 3lb but looks sure to go well.

Typical improver from the yard who bids for a four-timer after two wins over 2m on turf and a particularly emphatic success at Kempton (2m, Polytrack); has been hit with another 10lb rise for that latest success, but folly to rule him out given the possibility of further progress.
