0-7 under rules but ran quite well on chasing debut here (3m, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) in March and switched back to hurdling with clear second over C&D (good) last month; moves up from Class 5 today but still features prominently in calculations.

Dual C&D winner who has finished runner-up at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) and Wetherby (3m, good) in his last two runs; up another 3lb but he was only narrowly denied last time and remains well treated on his old form; key player.

Disappointed on a filthy day at Hexham last time but probably best judged on eariler efforts on a sound surface; will need to raise game if he's to win this, though.

Had Rumble B (now 2lb better off) two and a half lengths back in third when getting off the mark over hurdles over C&D last time (good; 3lb out of the handicap, tongue-tie back on) having shown very little on his three previous starts following a 531-day break; runs off 3lb higher but should be competitive again.
