Won two hunter chases in April on good ground before gifted a point walkover; can't be ruled out after those exploits and his hurdle figure is 10lb beneath his chase mark; had win and placed form for Olly Murphy in this discipline.

Rampant in sub-3m good-ground hurdle races and chases last summer, and has the beating of Yippee Ki Yay on a line through Macklin, whom he trounced at Exeter last time (3m, good); still fairly lightly raced over this sort of trip, and drying forecast rates a big plus.

11 yo Gelding

Form & Verdict
Regressive 11yo who has not won since 2022; placed in big-field C&D contest (good) last summer and went close at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) in September but absent since a lesser effort in November; had wind op during his break; significant rain will reduce his appeal.

Good-ground specialist who was useful in his prime for Chris Down; without a win since 2022, though, and recent point form for David Dennis is not inspiring (refused to race on latest appearance).

Winless since summer 2022 but he's generally reliable and often placed, though he has to be forgiven a lesser effort at Worcester (2m4f, good) last time; not the force of old, but he's handicapped accordingly and capable of bouncing back.

Form & Verdict
Bumper/hurdle winner on good ground; jumping has been an issue since his was switched to fences in March but he seemed to be getting his act together when third at Bangor (2m1f, good) last month; could be hard to beat off current mark if he avoids significant errors.

Form & Verdict
Fell on chasing debut in July 2023 and not seen over fences again since; started off for current stable with three good-ground hurdle wins last summer but her two runs this spring were both a shade disappointing and she needs to up her game here.

Not quite at her best this year but she was placed at Huntingdon (2m, good to firm) on her penultimate run and is now 6lb lower than for her win at Uttoxeter last summer; could go well back in trip and she's not ruled out.

Form & Verdict
1-13 over hurdles, the win gained in first-time cheekpieces at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) in September; makes chasing debut after a low-key reappearance run nine days ago but may be the one best equipped to cope if the ground softens here.
