Form & Verdict
Won on his reappearance and handicap hurdle debut here (2m4f, soft) last October and he also won his next two (2m7f, soft); well beaten at Aintree (3m, good to soft) in December but we know he goes well fresh and he has looked a chaser in the making; could have more to offer now over fences.

Won this in 2024 (heavy) and he was a promising second at Carlisle (3m, soft) in November 2025 on his second start back from a long absence; tailed off at Haydock since but he was 7lb out of the handicap and made a bad mistake mid-race; he's one to consider now back down in grade.

Form & Verdict
Point, bumper and novice hurdle winner who went close off this mark at Doncaster (3m2f, good to soft) in January on his second chase start; perhaps he'll return to form following a break but he lost his form in March and a turnaround is certainly required on this reappearance.

Form & Verdict
Won two novice hurdles late last year (2m4f/2m5f, soft) and she was a good third of 14 in a handicap hurdle at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) in April when last seen; her in-form stable wastes little time in sending this very lightly raced point runner-up over fences and she could go well.

Unseated mid-race on recent chase debut at Kelso but he was a promising staying novice hurdler last season and his trainer's horses often make better chasers; could play a leading role if avoiding mishap.

Back to form a little out of the blue to take advantage of a reduced mark over C&D (good) under Gregor Walkinshaw three weeks ago; remains well treated on old form (won 2024 Edinburgh National off 11lb higher) but not sure to be in the same mood again based on his recent record.

Relatively lightly raced 7yo; off the mark in a Leicester handicap (2m4f, soft) in December and bounced back from a major blip when runner-up at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) last month; had the run of things in front that day but unexposed as a stayer and is open to more progress; in the mix.

Just three runs over hurdles and now 2-3 over fences; didn't have much in hand last time at Uttoxeter (3m, good to soft; 5lb lower) but dug deep when it mattered and runner-up Miss Antipova should go well in the opening race.
