On the same mark as when beating Pull Again Green at Chepstow in October (2m7f, good) and better again to finish third next time at Ascot; however, wasn't great after a break at Newbury last month and has just lost his way. |

Won over C&D (good) last April and reappeared with good third at Chepstow (2m7f, good) in October; ran well for a long way in the Edinburgh National at Musselburgh (3m7f, good to soft) last month only to fail to get home; might not be far away now back down in trip. |

Has flattered to deceive over fences (1-12) and jumping mistakes played a part; a bit below his best on his two completions this autumn/winter and has now left Dan Skelton; blinkers replace his usual cheekpieces for this first hurdle race since March 2023; well handicapped judged on best efforts but he's now a 10yo. |

Hit the buffers after his winning start for this yard at Doncaster last December (3m, good to soft) but back on track, despite being unable to concede 5lb to an improver, over 2m4f here 23 days ago; that brings him into the reckoning and Harry Cobden presumably could have ridden last year's winner Inch House. |

12st 0lb |
Very easy winner of the Welsh National last December (3m6f, heavy); he ran well on good going here in November 2022 but testing ground seems to bring out the best in him; struggled in the face of tough tasks in the spring and pulled up on last month's reappearance at Chepstow; others appeal more. |

Excelled himself in refitted cheekpieces here last December, winning over C&D before keeping on remorselessly for wide-margin romp in Welsh Grand National (heavy); subsequently well beaten in Gold Cup and Grand National; has cheekpieces back on for seasonal debut; needs to prove he can cope with mark this high. |

Pulled-up over fences in October on reappearance and pretty much tailed off on a belated return to hurdles at Aintree the following month; both those were on good ground, whereas he's probably a better horse on soft; down the weights in first-time cheekpieces and he's interesting. |

Drew a blank and was unable to replicate his best form last season but went close off much reduced mark in series final at Warwick (3m, good) in March; probably not ideally suited by the soft ground when slightly below that form at Bangor last month and can play a major role here. |
