Form & Verdict
Form figures of 112 over hurdles since wind surgery, running well at Punchestown on stable debut the final time; soon pulled up (jockey felt something was amiss) on return to Flat but ran respectably, again at Goodwood (2m), last time; possibilities off 2lb lower dropped in grade.

Made most for two game wins in four-runner C&D races (good to firm) last summer, latterly in this race off 2lb higher than today; second to Baileys Khelstar over C&D on latest outing was in just a three-runner race but easily his best Flat effort this year, so he could be on his way back.

J: Harry Vigors

T: Faye Bramley

Comes into this off the back of winning a three-runner race over hurdles at Fontwell, but he is equally adept on the Flat with two wins in four-runner contests over C&D (good to firm) last summer, including this race off 1lb lower; respected.

Form & Verdict
Highly tried at Cheltenham returned to hurdles the last twice (early faller latest); Flat form last year featured two wins over 1m6f elsewhere and a couple of third-place finishes at Newbury, including over 2m; solid chance back here, assuming she's on song.

Winless on the Flat since 2024 but she arrives in good form from a spell hurdling (scored at Wincanton in April); not out of things back in this sphere.

9 yo Gelding

OR: 78

Form & Verdict
Similar type to Hydroplane, being a 9yo who has been successful under both codes; midfield when an outsider in the Chester Cup on seasonal debut and made no impact at Goodwood since; still needs to prove that he retains peak ability.

J: Rian Corcoran

Without a win since 2023 and was out of form when last seen over hurdles in the autumn; this year's Flat form has been fairly respectable but he's on the downgrade and makes only limited appeal back in this sphere.

Veteran who hasn't won since 2023 but he's been in fair form on AW this spring including when fourth on Polytrack (2m) in his last two starts; should be in the mix again but he needs to find more to make a big impact; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return.

Veteran who hasn't won since 2023; expensive to follow in recent times but he arrives in form and this is a touch easier again off a career-low mark; can't be left out of calculations.

Form & Verdict
Successful at Doncaster (14.5f) on reappearance, opening his account; last of five in 1m5f AW event since but looks likely to be better suited by this step back up in distance and return to turf; showed solid promise at Newbury on debut; may do better still and remains of interest.

Not had lots of racing and things were looking up when edging out a useful yardstick at Doncaster in May (1m6f, good to firm), only to then not beat a rival in his next two races (1m5f/2m); back to the drawing board.
