Beaten in one run for Nicky Henderson but now 3-3 for current yard after coming from the clouds in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham last month (3m, soft); that win seemed unlikely when out the back for much of the race, and even two out he had more in front than behind him; evidently a strong stayer but this flatter, sharper course could ask different questions of him.

Won on handicap/seasonal debut at Worcester (2m, good) in October and followed up in big field at Cheltenham (2m, soft) in November; slightly disappointing when favourite at Cheltenham last month but could still have more improvement to come over today's longer trip.

Got off the mark on his stable debut at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft) in March with the aid of first-time cheekpieces (retained since) off 4lb lower; back over hurdles after a couple of unsuccessful efforts over fences; holds claims if running to his best form.

Ran out on debut; however, he's been placed from the front on testing ground in his three maiden hurdles since, tongue tied first time when stepped up to 2m4f at Chepstow latest; absent since November and moving away from soft ground would ask a question, but his form suggests a big run.

One of several runners who are still seeking a first win; however, has shown ability at about 2m under rules and pedigree suggests this new trip is a likely source of improvement; could prove best of the maidens and is one for the shortlist.

All four wins in the mud and the latest was from the front on heavy ground at this track (2m4f) last February; made a creditable chase/seasonal debut over 3m in December but two muted performances (chase/hurdles) have followed and a big revival is needed in the first-time headgear.

From a very good jumping family; struggled in two slow-ground maiden hurdles in February (2m6f/2m3f) but took huge step forward and belied triple-digit odds wen very respectable fourth at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft) last month; has strong claims here if he handles the quicker conditions (ran okay in a good-ground bumper last spring).

Four-time hurdle scorer and has collected three Flat wins this spring (1m6f-2m1f); turned over at very short odds at Yarmouth (1m6f, good to firm) 16 days ago but the emphasis in that three-runner race was more on speed than ideal for a mare who has won over just short of 3m over timber; can show she's still on a good mark back at 2m+.

Unexposed on the Flat and she made it 3-3 in turf handicaps with an easy Pontefract (2m1f, good) win ten days ago; a slow start there meant she couldn't dominate as she had at Salisbury and Catterick beforehand; 4lb well in under a penalty; obvious chance.
