Form & Verdict
Largely consistent during first season over fences, and was a winner at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) in February; just a respectable third on last month's reappearance at Kempton (2m2f, good) but that run may have done him good and he could plausibly have untapped potential over this new trip.

Largely consistent 7yo who was runner-up three consecutive times after his Wincanton win (2m4f, good) in November; slightly below form when dropped back to 2m at Newbury last month but this move back up in trip will suit and his current mark is workable.

Consistent type, in frame all six starts this term, including over C&D; respectable fourth of 14 in Greatwood Gold Cup over 2m4f here last time; acts on any ground; should be in the thick of things again.

Form & Verdict
2-2 since switched to fences this autumn, the wins gained at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft) and Wetherby (2m3f, good); up another 6lb since last time but was one of two to pull nicely clear of the others on the run-in; must be considered in current mood.

Launched chasing career with two wins in the autumn (2m/2m3f. good to soft/good) and generally remained in good form until end of last season; looked a non-stayer over 2m7f on latest outing and now drops back in trip with usual cheekpieces refitted; recent 3lb drop gives him a decent chance.

11st 9lb

J: Jamie Brace

T: Nigel Twiston-Davies

Has done well since switched to this discipline (winning twice) and his blowouts have come in strong races, latterly in the 2m4f Greatwood Gold Cup here three weeks ago; more exposed than some in here and he's unraced past 2m5f, but can be competitive off this mark.

Form & Verdict
Ended last season with two wins at Fontwell (2m2f/2m5f) and is also suited by this C&D; obvious contender if resuming in similar form but made low-key reappearance in this race last season and the blinkers (worn for those two wins) are missing today.

Three wins last year (2m2f-3m1f, heavy-good) and returned to his best with good second over C&D (heavy) last month in reapplied blinkers (retained); 2lb higher than last time and has solid claims.

Form & Verdict
Ran quite well when third at Kempton (3m, good) last month, after a break, and remains well handicapped but he's seemingly on the downgrade now and it's hard to predict whether a combination of first-time blinkers and the drop back in trip will pay dividends here.

Regressive 10yo who has not won since February 2023; ran fairly well when second of five over C&D (good) in May but was well held in the end, and was pulled up when reverting to hurdles in July; others have more appealing profiles.
