Form & Verdict
Record of 1-15 and was well below form on AW last time, but her win came at Chepstow (1m, soft) in June and that was a brave success; has claims if she recapture that form and any rain would be a positive.

Won off her basement mark when dropped back to 1m at Chepstow (soft) in June but has not really built on that performance since and was just a respectable fifth behind James Park Woods over C&D last month.

Form & Verdict
Acts on good to form and soft; sole win was in May 2023 but he went close in a classified event here (1m2f, good) last Friday, on his second run for new yard; has leading claims if he can repeat that form and this drop back in trip should be fine.

J: Mason Paetel

Placed three times from four starts here but his regular hunting ground is Bath and he scored there (1m, heavy) off 5lb lower wearing a new hood/tongue-tie combination in October; kept to that track until the hood was removed in ten-runner handicap at Chepstow (1m, good) on Monday when he saw it well to score under Mason Paetel; carries 4lb penalty but won't mind what the weather does; player.

Won five times last year, with four over hurdles and the other in a classified event over C&D; returns after 11 months off but he needs a close look back in this sphere on first run after wind surgery; has won good to firm and heavy ground.

Turned his attention to chasing fairly late in life but made a solid start when second of six at Wincanton in April; didn't back that up when never travelling at Hereford (also 2m, good) nine days ago and has a question to answer after that.

Four-time hurdle winner, all at around 2m; made a belated switch to fences last month and shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up at Wincanton (2m, good), which also represented a return to some form; needs to back that up but he remains well treated and is one to consider.

Form & Verdict
Finished down the field when favourite over C&D (Bobby Dassler third) last month but he may have paid the price for chasing a strong pace; could be a big factor if things go more to plan this time and his last win was three runs back in April; change of headgear.
