Form & Verdict
0-5 over hurdles but straight off the mark over fences when justifying support at Southwell (2m4f, good) in April and better still when a narrow second off 6lb higher at Warwick 17 days ago (good; winner has gone in again since); unlikely we've seen the best of him yet and he's a big player off the 3lb rise, but ground softer than good may be a worry.

Last win was over 2m3f here in May of last year off 6lb higher; not quite hit the same heights this year and has been finishing his races rather tamely.

Not really firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in the autumn and has developed a tendency to finish rather weakly but comes here after two respectable 2m4f thirds this spring (cheekpieces added last time) and continues to edge down the weights.

11st 11lb

J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Dual chase winner who was ridden much closer to the pace than is often the case when very respectable third behind Abingworth at Warwick (2m4f, good) last month; remains on a workable mark and features prominently in calculations; cheekpieces (tried once in early 2024) refitted.

Form & Verdict
2022 Irish soft-ground point winner; Carlisle novice hurdle winner (2m1f, good to soft) in February 2023 and largely respectable efforts in three handicaps since, shaping as though he'd benefit from his most recent run (March) after a three-month break; unproven on good but brings potential now making his chase debut and upped to a distance that should suit, can't be ruled out.

Leads or races prominently; twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) and latest fifth at Kelso was a good run as he only weakened late on in a higher grade; respected in the new cheekpieces.

Twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) but his progress has stalled on his last two outings and he needs something extra if he's to return to winning ways today.

Winner on good ground over 2m3f at Stratford and Catterick this season; another fair effort when third of four at Musselburgh last time (2m4f, soft) where he jumped left on occasions; return to a left-handed track should suit and he can go well (won a bumper on soft ground).

Form & Verdict
Won the last (soft ground; made all) of four starts in Irish points; showed a good attitude under similar tactics in January when winning both starts over hurdles (2m, soft/good to soft) for this stable, which does bode well even though the form of those wins was not strong; of definite interest now switching to fences and upped in distance for his handicap debut.

J: Conor Stone-Walsh

T: Evan Williams

Dual 2m5f chase winner at Hereford (good) in the spring; well beaten over 3m at Ludlow 12 days ago and needs to rebound quickly from that, but ran much better than bare form suggests when last of six (behind Alien Storm) at Fontwell (2m3f, good) two starts ago and can't be ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Returned to some form this spring, notably with an emphatic win over 2m1f (good to soft) at this venue; ran respectably from the front off the 10lb rise when third at Uttoxeter (2m5f, soft) this month, when not quite lasting home, and he is considered back in trip, particularly if the ground isn't soft.
