Form & Verdict
C&D winner who produced a career best at Hexham (1m7f, good) in May when landing his third chase win but well-held when second of five finishers at Perth (2m, good) in June; consistent sort who may have benefitted from the short break and is not out of this.

Rattled off a four-timer at Sedgefield last October/November and although he ran well when second back there in May, he was pulled up here (2m3f, good) in June and that makes him tricky to fancy.

Market Rasen regular, with three wins, two of those in a visor over fences (2m1f); just did enough to prevail at Catterick (2m; from 2lb lower) in December and looked in need of the comeback run at Cartmel (weakened quickly) 16 days ago; don't discount.

Runner-up on his only previous run here and returns on the back of a third chase win, gained at Catterick in December (1m7f, good to soft; fine on good); if fit enough then he should be competitive off a fair mark.
