Only 1-10 as a chaser but he's a consistent gelding who ran another solid race to finish third in the Eider, albeit about 20l behind the easy winner Knockanore; likely to give his running once more but looks vulnerable off just 1lb lower.

Acts on soft, below form sole start on heavy; won over these fences in November 2023; no joy since but career-best form this season and he stuck to his task very well with the first-time cheekpieces over the extended 3m1f at Wincanton on latest start; going beyond that now looks worth a go.

Form & Verdict
Disappointing in the main over hurdles last season but, following a second wind operation, she reappeared with a comfortable win over C&D (good to soft) last Tuesday on her first British chase start; will be tough to beat under a 7lb penalty if repeating that latest form.

2-3 during light campaign last season, the latter win gained off today's mark in valuable series final at Hereford (3m1f, good); pulled up in 2m3f Wetherby race won by Micks Jet last month but has possibilities here if that outing brought her on.

Well-beaten sixth on recent chase debut at Kempton but he attracted market support and he could improve for the experience; this 5yo is on a competitive mark on last season's hurdle form and it will be interesting to see if his backers return.

Versatile sort who won over 2m4f here on reappearance and has performed respectably over marathon trips since; stiff task from 4lb out of handicap last time; not ruled out back off proper mark.

Form & Verdict
Promising third on his chase debut in this race last season (soft) and he's 1lb lower today; however, he struggled with his jumping on his next two chase starts last term and, while he could improve for this month's reappearance run at Wetherby, he was soundly beaten on that stable debut.
