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.

Form & Verdict
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.

Dual chase winner this season, latterly when battling on well at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; nudged up only 1lb for that and has a course hurdle win on his CV; ought to be right in the thick of things.

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.

Consistent 7yo who has finished second under James Robottom twice since returned to hurdling in March, more recently at Stratford (3m2f, good) last month; still unexposed over this sort of trip and likely to be on the premises again.

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.
