Form & Verdict
Won on good ground at Southwell (2m4f) and Uttoxeter (2m5f) in final two runs for Olly Murphy; no impact in four starts for current yard but he wasn't beaten far in a Class 2 at Bangor (3m) last time and is now back on last winning mark; could be dangerous with Sean Bowen booked on this drop back in trip and grade.

Front-running chaser who can go clear in his races but he's not won since December 2023 and was pulled up in his last two runs over fences; on dangerous mark back in this sphere but he needs a major revival after six months off.

Form & Verdict
Made it 6-17 over fences with his brave win at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; flopped in his follow-up bid at Huntingdon (pulled up) but he's only 1lb higher than for that penultimate run and he won here in the summer; player if he can bounce back.

Veteran who returned to form with an odds-on win in three -runner handicap here (2m6f, good) last month; this is a tougher test but he's only 2lb higher than last time and he has a good strike-rate (7-20) over fences.

J: Lilly Pinchin

Dual chase winner last year; signed off with two poor runs in the autumn but was respectable fifth of 13 over C&D (good) off his lower hurdle mark when returning last month; not out of this if that run brought him on.

Form & Verdict
Dual hurdle winner and his last success was a clearcut win at this track (extended 2m2f); finished second of four when odds-on for chase debut at Newton Abbot (2m) last month but he wasn't beaten far behind an improver who made all; should benefit from that experience and he has shaped as though this new trip should be within range; key player.

J: Chad Bament

T: Anthony Honeyball

Largely consistent 7yo who made a successful return to fences over C&D three weeks ago under Chad Bament, with first-time blinkers seemingly having a positive effect; goes up in class off a 7lb higher mark but there could still be more to come if the headgear continues to work.

Last success came over hurdles in October 2024; 0-5 when tried over fences this time last year; regularly makes the frame and his followers will be hoping that first-time blinkers have a galvanising effect; the drop back in trip may not be in his favour though.

Form & Verdict
Two chase wins in the second half of 2024 but has mixed record since last success and was well held over hurdles at Worcester (2m, good) three weeks ago; continues to drop down the weights but all of his wins have been at shorter trips and others are more convincing.

Hasn't always needed as many as two runs back to hit his straps, so arguably has a bit to prove now having posted only well-beaten thirds on his two starts this summer; has returned to his last winning mark, though.
