Form & Verdict
Below par since returning from his fourth wind operation; however, he did suffer some interference in the big handicap chase at Cheltenham ten days ago and has dropped to too good a mark to be left out of calculations.

Made all for clearcut success at Wetherby (2m3f, good) in March but beaten fair and square the last twice; he's not as good as he was and now struggles for consistency.

Exploited some considerable help from the handicapper when making all for clearcut success at Wetherby (2m3f, good) in March but was safely held on his latest outing and is nothing like the force of old.

Form & Verdict
Found some rhythm out in front and did it fairly comfortably at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) despite jumping out to his left on occasions; 5lb rise seems fair and, provided the ground is okay (he has won on soft but also bypassed races on account of similar conditions) he should be bang there.

The cheekpieces had been working well in handicaps at about 2m4f before he came up well short in a strong handicap at Cheltenham 19 days ago; didn't stay 3m here when trying it once before but conditions will be quicker this time and that should help.

The cheekpieces are working well as he's been competitive in his last three races at about this distance; however, he's come up short in weaker races than this the last twice and Harry Skelton could have ridden him.

Form & Verdict
He was the first beaten when pulled up in a Cheltenham 2m handicap on his return but now goes in a tongue-tie and this C&D winner is competitively treated if shrugging aside that disappointment; stable is going very well.

0-6 during his last campaign but he dropped down the weights and returned with encouraging second to a handicap blot at Stratford (2m3f, good to soft); could build on that latest run and he's one to consider.

Form & Verdict
Has won his last five, in three hurdle races and two chases; made light work of beating a subsequent winner over hurdles at Sedgefield last time (2m4f, soft), having previously won off the same mark there over fences (just as easily); now a stone higher but he's on a roll.

Yet to add to his four chase wins for Philip Kirby during 2023-24 season but has made the frame on all four starts for current stable since December, most recently when third of five at Newcastle (2m4f, good) nine days ago; tried in cheekpieces today; probably won't be far away.

With Phil Kirby when left alone in a match at Kelso (3m, soft) in February 2024, that being his fourth (and most recent) win over fences; runner-up in this last year (beaten 11l) for Lizzie Quinlan; in the frame three times (Musselburgh) for Hugh Burns; competes from an easing mark, needing more.

Reportedly lost his action when pulled up over hurdles last time but didn't enter that race in much form; also below his best when the last to complete in September on his only chase start; has a bit to prove.

Back to the same mark off which he won on good ground over C&D just over a year ago and, next time out after a 5lb rise, he was going best in this when unseating two out; lost his way later on but there were positives to take from his fifth over C&D in May; could easily be in the shake-up.
