Form & Verdict
Achieved little in novice hurdles, and limited impression on November's handicap/chase debut (3m, good to soft); mark eased 2lb, however, and step up to a marathon trip piques the interest in this nephew of Comply Or Die; yard has a five-year strike-rate of 26% with its chasers here.

J: Jack Tudor

Made all over C&D (good) in March and doubled his chasing tally with hard-fought success at Uttoxeter (3m, good) two months ago; should also be suited by today's slower ground and helps to give Christian Williams a good hand in this race.

Form & Verdict
Beaten after halfway here last month, so although entitled to have needed it after 458 days out his present attainment level is conjectural; 2m4f/2m5f of his wins looked better fits than 3m prior to his absence.

J: Jack Quinlan

T: Ben Case

Bumper, hurdle and chase winner at up to 2m5f, on good or slower; 6lb lower than his last win but has come close to that form only once in four starts since a lengthy layoff; blinkers go on.

Form & Verdict
Not the horse of old (winless since December 2020) and a poor run last month to forgive; in the frame in a Lincolnshire, North Yorkshire (last year) and two London Nationals over the years, however, and ought not fail for stamina; first ever drop into a class 5 handicap.

Form & Verdict
Able to race off his true mark when placed a couple of times a year ago, which isn't the case here; attempt at front-running quickly floundered last time and he's not easy to recommend.
