Point (2m4f, good to soft) and handicap hurdle (2m2f, good) winner who ran well in defeat last season on all four chase starts; should go close if ready to roll after seven months off.

Signed off over hurdles with victory at Market Rasen (2m2f) and he has shaped well switched to chasing when runner-up in 2m4f handicaps at Uttoxeter and Worcester (winner has gone in again since) this summer; tongue tied now and visor replaces cheekpieces; weighted to go close.

Lightly raced point winner (2m4f, good to soft) who won easily over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) in March and was a promising second on last month's chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good), where he was clear with the 10-11 favourite; open to further improvement; firmly in calculations.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Barry Brennan; bought for £2,000 in October; 11-race maiden under rules (also failed to win in seven points); has a chance on his second in a handicap hurdle at Fakenham (2m7f, good to soft) on stable debut in December but tailed off over fences on same track next time.

Pulled up in his final run during winter but that was in the mud and he won by 7l over this trip at Exeter (good to soft) in December; looks interesting on that form and he needs a close look back from five months off.

Back in better form for new yard, notably an account-opening win over hurdles at Exeter and second-place finish at Huntingdon (2m7f, soft) returned to fences; hurdles mark is 7lb higher; fighting chance.

Best run when second in a maiden hurdle at Southwell (2m, good to soft) in December; rather disappointing in two handicaps since, over 2m4f and 2m, but still a possible in a weak event.

Not disgraced when fifth of seven (behind Paragon) at Market Rasen (2m, good) 12 days ago, after a break, but is now 0-15 over hurdles and her overall profile is not appealing.

Just 1-26 over hurdles, and consistency since last September's 2m3f success here (good) has kept him 7lb above that winning mark; vulnerable to improvers but stronger podium claims than most.

11yo who belatedly opened his account here (2m2f, good) in September, his 21st start over hurdles, and has remained in good form since; probably won't be far away but younger rivals have more potential.

Course regular who is 1-27 under rules, though the win came over C&D (good) in September; still 8lb higher and more exposed than most, but should still run his race back from a short break.
