Form & Verdict
Flat/hurdles scorer; not totally fluent but easily beat Nathan Wells over C&D (good) last month on chase debut and looks open to further progress in this sphere; could well defy a 7lb rise.

Schmilsson

11st 11lb

J: Sean Bowen

Failed to beat a rival in his final two races when last seen a year ago; however, he won his first two in this discipline (2m on good ground) and would have every chance if returning in good spirits.

Flat bred but won his first two chases (2m, good), albeit with luck on his side the second time when left clear; latest run when last at Stratford just wasn't his true running; still looks competitively treated.

Not bred for chasing but is 2-2 since switched to fences in May; might have been fortunate at Perth last month (2m, good; leader fell at final fence) and is 2lb wrong here but still features prominently in calculations.

Triple chase winner including over C&D but he's been beaten 35l in both runs since returning from an absence in May; has something to prove and he needs a major revival.

Dual course winner (2m), who sits 5lb below his last winning mark; finished a remote third to Conquer The Breeze here latest, so it's difficult to work out how he goes about making up such a deficit, even acknowledging more favourable terms.

Form & Verdict
Made a solid start to his chase career, winning three times (including when fresh); form has dipped sharply since but a revival is possible in first-time headgear on return from break.

J: Harry Reed

Win/placed form in his usual cheekpieces before making all for a narrow success in the newly fitted visor (with tongue-tie worn for last seven starts) at Cartmel (2m5f, good); he's getting high in the weights now (raised another 4lb) and he won't be the only one racing prominently.

In fine fettle in recent runs, landing his fifth win over fences at Kelso (2m5f, good) in April and placed since at Aintree and Perth; swaps cheekpieces for a first-time visor and looks sure to give another good account.

Career bests on the RPR front in his last two races, winning at Kelso (2m5f) and close up at Aintree (2m4f; again on good); could run well, though a nagging concern that he didn't appear to stay 3m when he tried it once before (at this track).

J: Sean Quinlan

Returned from long absence with quite encouraging hurdle run in May and ran well for a long way over C&D (good; race in which Salamanca Bay fell) last month; finished rather weakly on both occasions but might last longer if first-time hood helps him to settle better in early stages today.

J: Sean Bowen

T: L J Morgan

Free-goer who was useful in his prime and was in front before last-fence fall over C&D (good) on last month's stable debut; subsequent 2lb rise is manageable and, providing his confidence has not been affected, he's an obvious contender.

Should be well handicapped and he ran well for a long way when a 4l third behind Jet Of Dreams at Chepstow (2m, good); perhaps went off a bit too hot that day and has to be of interest.
