Form & Verdict
Not very reliable nowadays but ran big race in defeat here (3m, good; visor refitted) 16 days ago and remains on a good mark after recent 1lb nudge; should cope with today's drop back in trip; major player if in right mood again.

Below par since the summer of 2024, although he has made the frame on several occasions; not entirely disgraced when third at Perth (2m4f, good) in September; likely to be thereabouts again but others appeal more for the win.

Regressive veteran who has not won since March 2019; arrested decline with second at Market Rasen (2m3f, soft) last December but absent since lesser effort over 2m1f there in March; not the percentage call.

Down to this mark when nearly winning for the first time in seven years at Huntingdon in March and a slightly lesser effort when third at Hereford (also 2m, good) came just one week later; not ruled out.

Came very close to a first win in seven years when narrowly denied at Huntingdon (2m, good) seven days ago; can race keenly and unlikely to get an easy lead here, but worth considering if reproducing that effort off the same mark.

Form & Verdict
Badly out of form over fences and hurdles for Gary and Josh Moore last season but significant positives can be drawn from his stable debut here (3m, good; first-time visor) in July, albeit he was beaten about 40l in the end; had wind op soon afterwards and a sports refitted tongue-tie/cheekpieces today; worth a second look.

Showed the benefit of a wind op when dominating from the front here (2m4f, good) last month, his second start for Laura Morgan, and ran big race in defeat under penalty at Southwell (2m4f, good) a few days later; effectively another 5lb higher today but sure to be suited by the move back up in trip; good chance.

All-the-way Kempton 3m winner in early 2024 and, with stamina to spare at intermediate trips and the benefit of wind surgery, was played equally aggressively in victory at Perth last week (good); 2lb badly in under the penalty but still superbly handicapped on that previous winning form.

0-5 over hurdles but made promising start to chasing career when third over C&D (good) in May; might well have won that race had she not clouted the last two fences, and commands respect off the same mark today.

Had jumping issues during her chase spell and proved suited by the return to hurdles in C&D contest (good to soft) last time, just holding on from Lizzie Luna who might have won but for coming off a true line; may remain competitive.

Low-mileage 6yo who might well have made a winning chase debut here (2m4f, good) in May, had she not clouted the last two fences; again made jumping errors when well behind Heaven Smart over that trip last month but can pose a potent threat if she gets into a better rhythm today.

Form & Verdict
Won at Catterick (1m7f, good) for Harriet Dickin last December; not beaten far on any of three starts for Olly Murphy this season but made Sean Bowen work very hard before staying on from poor position for never-nearer third at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft) last month; probably needs to travel with much greater zest in first-time blinkers here.

Won twice for Olly Murphy in the autumn and subsequently sold for 5,500gns; hasn't been in the same form in three runs for his current trainer; cheekpieces worn on his last three starts are dispensed with on this step up in trip; still has time on his side but all of a sudden has a bit to prove.

In good form for Olly Murphy in the autumn, winning in blinkers at Sedgefield (3m2f, good to firm) and Market Rasen (2m5f, good to soft), but soundly beaten in cheekpieces (retained) at Warwick for new stable twice since and now has a point to prove.
