All his form is on soft or heavy ground, including two handicap wins last April and the second of those was this race by a nose from Surrey Quest (always prominent); 5lb higher today but the chief worry is that he's been so horrendously out of form this season. |

Below best on both starts this term and didn't jump well at Haydock latest, but it wasn't a bad run from out of the weights; now just 1lb higher than when 8l second to handicap blot in this race last year (soft) and can play a leading role if back on song now in cheekpieces; has won on good to soft. |

Won a bumper three years ago but 0-13 since; competitive over fences last season and his 6l fourth at 50-1 in this race (soft; 8lb lower today) last April reads well, but a poor sequence since was not greatly improved by his eighth when wearing first-time cheekpieces in last month's 3m6f NH Chase. |

Contested some strong handicaps when with Willie Mullins, winning the 2021 Munster National and not beaten far in last season's Scottish National; however, even Cheltenham's extended 3m2f seemed too sharp a test last month and it's unlikely that he'll have the gears for this. |

Sole win was in France on debut, so he's now 0-13 for Willie Mullins and 0-9 over fences; clearly best effort came in the Scottish National on soft ground last year when about 8l sixth, coming from well off the pace (2lb higher today); penultimate outing gave some renewed hope, before he was unluckily carried out in the latest Scottish National when cheekpieces were added; just 9-1 that day but he's 6lb out of the handicap this time. |

In two of his last four races he was pulled up in this last year and again in the Welsh National in December when amongst the favourites on both occasions; very capable stayer when on his game, though, and looked set for a good season when third to Val Dancer on his Carlisle reappearance (3m2f, good to soft); has run well here before and could yet have his day in the sun; makes the shortlist in first-time blinkers. |

Runner-up off this mark for Willie Mullins in the 4m2f Midlands Grand National last March; that, however, was the last time he's completed and he's mostly been back to his old tricks since by refusing to race; last two "starts" were for new connections but he didn't start at all on the first of those and threw in the towel at a later point three weeks ago. |

A 9yo with just ten runs behind him; an out-and-out galloper who is made for a race of this nature and a 3lb rise for his latest Haydock win in this new aids combination (3m1f, soft; stays further) seems lenient; built to carry the 12st (though no horse has defied top weight since Bonanza Boy in 1991) but the glaring concern is that all his best form is in the mud, which he won't be getting here. |

Has had a patchy campaign and was pulled up in the Midland National last time; however, he showed some spark at Musselburgh (3m7f, good to soft) in February and is just 1lb higher than when winning the Eider at Newcastle (4m1f, heavy) last season; not ruled out now back down in trip/grade. |

Took form to whole new level when wide-margin winner of Edinburgh National at Musselburgh (3m7f, good to soft) in first-time visor last season; yet to match that performance this term and didn't get far when fitted with blinkers for this year's Edinburgh National but he's on a good mark and the new headgear may yet prompt a revival. |

Progressive last year, making all at Tramore (2m5f, soft) in August and Cheltenham (3m1f, good to soft) in October; returned to Cheltenham last month for the Kim Muir (3m2f, soft) and made most, finishing third of 22 but he was 18l behind the runner-up Git Maker, so needs to step up on that and it's the furthest he's been. |

11st 3lb |
Won well over Haydock's extended 3m1f on heavy two runs back; has failed to complete in his two previous marathon chases and was on the retreat, though still in third, when crashing out at the final fence of the Eider (good to soft); can run well again but others might be better equipped to see this out stronger; new cheekpieces the headgear of choice today (effective in visor/blinkers). |

Pulled up in the Scottish National in April and tailed off on reappearance at Exeter last month; however, he looked promising when winning twice during last season's first chasing campaign (2m4f/3m, good), and he won on soft ground over hurdles; retains potential and not ruled out. |

Won't fail through lack of stamina but was pulled up on final two starts for Gordon Elliott during the winter and has not yet built upon his fairly respectable stable debut in March; tailed off when fourth of five here on Saturday (3m1f, good to soft); needs a sudden revival. |

Has not had much racing, or recaptured his form, since winning the Welsh Grand National in January 2021; 2lb lower today, even from 5lb out of the handicap; two places last winter but pulled up in the 2023 Midlands National and well beaten behind Ballygriffin Cottage at Sandown when next seen nearly a year later. |

Has not had much racing since winning the Welsh Grand National in January 2021, running respectably twice last winter but beaten some way out in the Midlands National when last seen in March; well handicapped but seems fragile and probably best watched after nearly a year off. |

Listed hurdle winner last December for Willie Mullins; departed that yard for £11,000 and no form as yet for current stable (2m7f hurdle/3m5f chase); no real significance in another headgear switch. |
