Three wins over hurdles, 1-15 over fences; second twice over fences on decent ground at Musselburgh in January, and third in a chase at Wexford last week; previously out of the money behind Ad Caelum in a handicap hurdle at this venue.

Three wins over hurdles, 1-14 over fences; second twice over fences on decent ground at Musselburgh in January, over 2m7f on the latter occasion, and his hurdles run at Kilbeggan last time wasn't bad; most of his better runs have been right-handed, though.

Veteran who has done all his winning on heavy ground and is no longer the force of old; looked a shade unlucky not to win on good ground at Exeter (2m3f) in March, having made a bad jumping error in the straight, but is 4lb wrong here and younger rivals appeal more.

Form & Verdict
Quite useful on his day as he showed when winning over C&D last June (good) and when taking a valuable handicap at Doncaster in December (3m, good to soft); pulled up in strong company on last two starts; has a chance down in grade providing the ground doesn't turn soft.

Not disgraced in the 3m1f event at Cartmel won by Olivers Travels but shaped as if he may need a drop back in trip; gained his two wins this term over 2m5f (at that venue).

Never got going in Market Rasen's Summer Plate but returning here is a major positive, having previously gone back-to-back in 2m5f chases (made all on good to soft; good is fine); not handicapped out of contention by any means and probably stays this far.

Goes particularly well at Cartmel where he won three weeks ago (2m5f, good to soft) despite looking on a toughish mark; similar concerns here raised another 5lb and wouldn't want the ground to turn proper soft.

10yo who was pulled up over fences last May following a long absence and well beaten over hurdles at Carlisle in November; however, he ran well for a long way at Carlisle, shaping as though he may have needed the outing, and this five-time chase winner is not ruled out now back over fences.

Has been in fine form, winning two of last three starts (over 2m3f at Market Rasen and over 2m4f at Haydock) and finishing runner-up at Carlisle in between; still feasibly treated and has a chance unless the ground goes soft.

5-19 over fences, the latest win at Haydock (2m4f, good) in April; not in same form at Cartmel or Stratford since and first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces; has it to do giving weight away to more progressive rivals.
