Much improved since cheekpieces were fitted this summer, winning twice at Worcester (2m7f, good) before going close behind a course specialist at Perth (3m, good); could still have more to offer but will have something to prove if the ground softens here.

Bumper/hurdle winner; didn't travel or jump that well but was strong in the finish to collect over C&D a month ago when in first-time cheekpieces; will need to sharpen up his game if he's to defy the 7lb rise.

Began rules career with two hurdle wins in January and has largely been consistent since switched to handicap chases this season; needs to put last month's below-par run behind him but seems versatile regarding trip/ground and probably won't be far away.

One of two runners for yard and stable pilot Jack Kennedy rides; landed beginners' chase at Clonmel in June; backed that up with an excellent effort over this C&D; seems to go on any ground; got a 4lb hike for her second here last month but that shouldn't stop her running another big race. Leading contender.

First reserve; not had much racing and impressed in winning a beginners' chase at Clonmel last month (2m7f, good), beating four rivals who contest the previous race; could be well handicapped if she gets a run.
