Form & Verdict
Five-time chase winner on good to soft or slower but he looks weighted near his best off this mark and was never dangerous when a well-held fifth here (2m3f, soft) on his recent return; may have needed that run but others are more persuasive.

J: Benjamin Macey

T: Samuel Drinkwater

12yo who doesn't appear to be as good as he was and hasn't really threatened this season, but he's been a fair third on two of his last three starts and continues to edge down the weights; might not be far away.

Now 12 but showed when third of six at Lingfield (2m4f, soft) in December that he retains plenty of spark; effective on good to soft ground earlier in career; mid-race unseat at Wetherby last time; possible player.

J: Ned Fox

T: Samuel Drinkwater

Long in the tooth now but was not that far off his career-best form when third of six at Lingfield (2m4f, soft) in December, after a layoff; 2lb lower here and has a fighting chance if aided by combination of refitted tongue-tie and first-time cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
Made all on chase debut at Warwick (2m, good) in May and ran into a handicap blot when runner-up back in this sphere at Stratford (2m3f, soft) four weeks ago; this is not so demanding on this drop back in trip and he should have more to offer in this sphere; key player.

2m novice handicap winner here three years ago to the day (good; RPR 129), and several decent placed efforts after; able schoolmaster for Joe Neal in novice rider points lately, getting there in time at Kimble (3m, good to firm) but not quite last time; others a bit more persuasive.

Form & Verdict
Best efforts at 2m in the mud; won in this sphere at Ayr last winter and he's finished placed in his last three runs including behind two major improvers at Aintree (2m, soft) 18 days ago; still looks feasibly treated and he's respected back at the scene of his hurdle win.

C&D winner who is well handicapped on form as recent as last March and today's drop back in grade could help; however, his performances have been patchy this season and he needs to get back on track.

Form & Verdict
Point and novice hurdle (2m4f, soft) winner who made all at Ayr (2m, heavy) in January on his second chase start; that was an emphatic success but he was disappointing in his final two runs in the spring and has some questions to answer after 252 days off.

Ran no sort of race at Sandown seven weeks ago but his previous four efforts had all been highly creditable, including a Haydock win (2m, soft; handles good) just before Christmas; no surprise if he bounces back for a yard in form.

Acts on any ground; record of 2212 this term for new yard, most recently clear of the remainder when bidding for a Haydock double (2m); back on career-high mark but looks a solid contender in current form.
