6 yo Gelding

OR: 120

Form & Verdict
Had Lightkeeper behind when catching out an idling leader over C&D last month but the Elliott horse got his revenge back here 17 days ago; this 6yo would have got closer had he been cleaner over the last fence; closely matched with his old rival.

King Roly

11st 13lb

J: James Bowen

T: Mickey Bowen

Back in prime form when keeping on strongly for clearcut success in first-time blinkers at Worcester (2m7f, good) 12 days ago, and now 4-11 over fences; on the downside, he's never run here before and will have something to prove if the ground is slower than good to soft.

OR: 131

Form & Verdict
Reversed previous C&D form with King Roly under an aggressive front-running ride from Sean Bowen here 17 days ago (good); that wasn't without the occasional scare over his fences but he's clearly capable of going well again off just 4lb higher.

Lightkeeper

11st 0lb

J: Josh Williamson

T: Gordon Elliott

Maiden hurdle winner in 2024 has won three chases since and is rated 128 in that sphere; was second in a Bellewstown claimer in August when last over hurdles; a spin in the charity race at Punchestown can have him straight; valuable 5lb claimer a help.

Form & Verdict
Progressive over hurdles last season in winning two 2m handicaps (on soft) and his following defeats were no backward steps (on good to soft and good); has a career-high mark to deal with but might well improve again for fences.

Went badly the wrong way last season and didn't show much in May when last seen; looking for positives, he's 25lb below his peak mark and might have been refreshed by five-month break, with stable in fine form.

Dual winner in this sphere but has been operating below his best for a while and is best left alone at present.

Form & Verdict
Irish point winner who has had little racing for a 7yo; placed in a 2m4f handicap hurdle here before finishing fourth over C&D on his chase debut when left behind by Lightkeeper and King Roly; asking plenty of him to reverse placings with both of those.

Recorded an 8l success in heavy-ground Irish point two months ago, drawing clear after the final fence; subsequently sold for £40,000; dam placed in bumpers; one to consider.
