Form & Verdict
Made a winning chase debut in this last year (from 6lb lower); turned in another fair effort at Market Rasen (2m1f, soft; runner-up), before reportedly bleeding from the nose back at that venue 11-days later; returns fresh from a break at a track that suits.

Won a C&D handicap (good to soft) in November 2023; had a couple of close seconds in five runs since and he was always on the back foot after getting hampered early on at Huntingdon (2m4f) two weeks ago; looks on workable mark on this drop back in trip and he's in the mix.

Infrequent winner (2-25); has eased another 1lb in the weights since finishing in the frame at Chepstow (2m4f) in April; prefers testing conditions, and could find this 2m trip on the sharp side; others preferred.

J: Ned Fox

Just one win from his last 18 starts but frequently placed and stayed on for second from out of the handicap here (2m1f, soft) last month; runs off the same mark today and the step back up in trip may well be a positive, with his last win having come over 2m3f; could again be thereabouts.

Form & Verdict
Dominated when scoring at Market Rasen and Sedgefield (both 2m1f) last term; struck into (pulled up) at Huntingdon subsequently, and didn't jump well under a 10lb claimer at Ffos Las latest; needs more from 5lb above last winning mark.

Form & Verdict
Veteran; has won just once since late 2019; beaten over 10l when fourth to Superstylin in this last year, and there's no obvious reason as to why he can reverse those placings; easy enough to swerve from 7lb wrong.

0-15 over hurdles and out of form over fences prior to an early fall at Huntingdon this month and finishing tailed off over 2m5f here back over hurdles last month; has gone well at this venue in the past but it's hard to make a case for her on most recent efforts.

0-14 over hurdles and out of form over fences prior to an early fall at Huntingdon this month; however, she's often run well here over hurdles and fences and perhaps the return to this course and first-time hood (replacing cheekpieces) will be the catalysts for a step back in the right direction.
