Pulled up on consecutive appearances towards end of last season but seemed to run well until tiring on soft ground at Ayr last time; could be better suited by the less-testing conditions here; not ruled out.

Tailed off (fences) and pulled up (hurdles) on his last two starts; a major turnaround is necessary but he runs off the same mark as when winning this race last year; not ruled out and the betting may be interesting.

Unraced beyond 3m2f but should stay further than that; 15l winner of a major 3m handicap at Kempton last February but he's found his revised mark a bit too tough since (close second to Herakles Westwood at Cheltenham on New Year's Day) and is still 10lb higher today; others are a bit more persuasive.

Always wears a tongue-tie; on a sharp upward curve when taking this 12 months ago by some 15l (on good to soft); makes his defence off an 11lb higher mark but on the back of a return to form at Cheltenham (in cheekpieces; wore a visor in this last year); course form here always ticks a big box and can run well again.

Won in January in his first two chases (3m/3m2f, soft/heavy) then lacked fluency over his fences when second at Wincanton (3m2f, good to soft); bar one small blip he jumped much better at Kempton (3m, good to soft) 17 days ago when romping home in the Ladbrokes Trophy; hit with 12lb rise but that may not stop this highly progressive 7yo, who was very impressive last time.

Lightly raced 7yo who landed a Chepstow novice hurdle (good to soft) in November 2024 and it was a respectable start over fences when third back there (also 2m, good; mistake last) just over one year later; pulled up after he sprawled on landing around halfway at Hereford next time; still has stamina to prove but a clear round should see him competitive.

Inconsistent, lightly raced 7yo who was pulled up at Hereford (2m5f, soft) in January when last seen; however, his sole hurdle win came here (2m, good to soft) and he was an encouraging third over C&D (good) in November on his chase debut; interesting now back here and back down in trip, provided the ground suits (effective on good/good to soft, unproven on soft).
