Form & Verdict
Disappointing favourite at Huntingdon (2m, good; second chase attempt) last Monday, taking overall record to 0-15; generally in decent form (at up to 2m4f) otherwise this term and may well rebound; one of the main players, despite being 4lb out of weights.

J: Jamie Hamilton

Dual chase winner in 2024; returned from one-year absence with low-key hurdle run for new stable in July but shaped with a lot more promise at Perth last month and should now be at concert pitch for this return to fences.

Form & Verdict
Recorded a 40-1 success at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last May; far from consistent otherwise in the last two years and has been absent since August; nearly a stone out of the handicap on return to action and is not a solid option.

Both chase wins have come on good ground here, over 2m and 3m2f; however, doesn't return in much form and his second two runs back amounts to precious little; 4lb out of the weights.

Both chase wins have come on good ground at Newton Abbot, over 2m and 3m2f; 4lb out of the weights here but he was even worse off when a remote second on his return from a break at Fakenham; difficult to know what form he's in at the minute.

Form & Verdict
Three-time hurdles winner; below par returned to that sphere last time; respectable second at Fontwell (3m3f, soft) on most recent chase attempt; drops back sharply in trip but this seems a good opportunity, with all of his modest rivals out of the weights.

Easily reeled in and was pulled up after blasting off in front at Market Rasen a fortnight ago (well backed), and has now failed to complete all four races this year; on a workable mark and suited by this C&D but needs to get career back on track.
