Form & Verdict
Made all in a novice handicap at Huntingdon (2m, good) on January's stable debut but was then tailed off at Newbury when soft ground shouldn't have been too great an issue; well beaten when tried in cheekpieces by Gordon Elliott but the tongue-tie is new; hard to rule out.

Form & Verdict
All four wins have been here, latterly rallying gamely to fend off a subsequent winner over C&D in mid-February (soft); he's now 2-2 in this headgear combination (previous success over hurdles) and looks sure to be involved after a 4lb rise.

All of his five wins have been gained at Plumpton but he's been well held at that track (2m1f/2m4f) in last three runs; now 9lb lower than for his last success but that that was 14 months ago and others are preferred.

Form & Verdict
From the front he beat three rivals on his chase debut at Warwick last May (2m, good; 1lb lower) but was pulled up in final chase and followed that with a modest effort on the AW (2m Class 5); now on a retreival mission in first-time blinkers.

Won a match for sole chase success (six starts) last February; below par in just two races this season (hurdle/chase) and today's drop in trip might not be ideal; has been off since November as well.

Sole success from nine chase starts came in a match but there was nothing wrong with her effort when going down narrowly in a 2m4f chase at Ludlow three weeks ago (good) and that was a useful race for the grade; respected.

Had been struggling but bounced back for a fourth chase success at Lingfield two weeks ago (2m, soft; made most); wouldn't be certain to repeat that form but clear claims if he can off 5lb higher.

Form & Verdict
Dual hurdle winner who compiled a consistent profile in handicaps and it was a fair race for the grade last time at Taunton (2m, soft); did get outpaced there and she may need further than this, but she's still of interest on this switch to fences.
