T: N W Alexander

Has won two of her last three races, both at Carlisle, over 3m2f in December (soft) and over 2m5f last month (soft); has gone up 9lb (4lb for latest win); should go well again although best efforts on stiff tracks (yet to win in four tries here).

Form & Verdict
Triple chase winner who shaped as though retaining much of his ability at Ludlow after a near seven-month break last time; should be spot on now and likely to give a good account.

J: David Bass

T: Henry Daly

Front-runner who ended last year with an emphatic success in the Borders National at Kelso (4m, soft); looks interesting on that form but he's been pulled up in three subsequent runs and needs a major revival after another break; reapplied cheekpieces replace blinkers.

7 yo Gelding

OR: 106

Form & Verdict
Won this race last year from 3lb higher mark and shaped as though coming to hand at Wetherby last time (ahead of Conquredalofeurope); the extra yardage here will suit and he has leading claims.

Has won over 3m2f on soft at Kelso; sound reappearance run when third at Ayr in October (3m, good to soft); rather disappointing since; fell in this race two years ago; has a bit to prove.

Dual chase winner who has finished behind Hidden Commander (due to run in 2.45 over hurdles) on last two starts; stays 3m and worth a try at this trip; along with Camp Belan gives trainer a strong hand.

Runner-up twice in a row in the autumn (C&D/2m4f, good/soft) before fair fourth of five here (3m2f, soft), when not quite seeing out the trip; every chance she'll be in the mix now back down in distance.

Battled on well to win small-field Catterick chase (3m1f, heavy) off today's mark in January but looked out of sorts on both subsequent starts over fences; swaps blinkers for first-time visor on this first hurdling start since 2021; others look much less risky.
