Form & Verdict
Three-time Flat winner across 2021/2022, the third coming over C&D (good) off 2lb higher; won over hurdles in April 2023 when back from a break and was exceeding market expectations on his return from another absence when tipping up at the last at Stratford in May; not fully exposed on Flat turf, this just his fifth start.

Winless since scoring over 2m2f here in April 2023; failed to build on earlier promise when sixth of seven in 3m3f Sedgefield handicap last month but could bounce back in different headgear now.

Just 1-17 over hurdles but runner-up over C&D (good to soft) last month after a break and his lesser effort at Warwick 16 days later can be excused by the soft ground; conditions set to suit today; firmly in calculations.

Just 1-16 over hurdles and the forecast soft ground poses a question, but he returned to form when second at Sedgefield (3m3f, good to soft) a fortnight ago and can be in the mix if backing up that performance.

Form & Verdict
Beaten a head at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) last month and then doubled her tally on the Flat when scoring by a neck over C&D (good to firm) four weeks ago; front pair were 5l clear that day and the runner-up has won since (beating Chillhi) so a 2lb nudge looks very fair.

Kept on well to score at his beloved Hamilton (1m4f, good) four weeks ago; a 5lb rise will make life tougher as he seeks to win away from that Lanarkshire venue for the first time; down the field (sixth) behind Stellarmasterpiece over 1m4f here in April.

Dual course winner (1m4f/1m5f); form has dipped slightly since finishing runner-up at Carlisle (1m6f, good to firm) in May but, on recent evidence, he's closely matched with today's rivals Crystal Guard and Sugarpiehoneybunch; foolish to dismiss.

Form & Verdict
Not fully exposed after only five runs but was well beaten on handicap debut at Kempton (AW; first-time cheekpieces) in April and it was a similar story on his turf debut when fourth of five at Salisbury (also 1m4f, good to firm) last time when back from a three-month break; might have needed that and this half-brother to a 2m winner now steps up in trip.

Won three times (once from rear, twice making all) at up to 2m last term on the Flat for Paddy Butler; remote this year in his two hurdle races (three-runner race last time) but he was a fair third over C&D (a head behind No More Bolero) in between and peak form gives him a good shout.
