Won at Windsor (2m4f, good) on New Year's Day on second start back from a long absence and close second at Ludlow (2m4f, soft) last month behind one who was completing a hat-trick; Jay Tidball, who has been on board on his last two starts, remains in the saddle; solid claims.

His second run back from a long absence when nicely on top in the finish at Windsor (2m4f, good; Jay Tidball claimed his 5lb); a 5lb rise isn't overly offputting but he does seem particularly effective on goodish ground.

7-1 when early faller at the Chair in this last year; this 7yo was an eye-catching third at Ludlow in February on penultimate start, having been hampered, but needs to step up on this season's handicap form if he's to threaten.

Returned to form when finishing third at Ludlow (2m4f, soft) recently, when back up in trip on his third start for this yard; he came clear with two progressive opponents last time, despite being hampered in the back straight, and could have a big part to play today.

Won a hunter chase under former owner David Maxwell in March; sold for £90,000 in October; his quiet stable debut was at Cheltenham and he showed more at Newbury when about 11l off the winner (2m); returning to slower ground over further could be beneficial; respected.

Last month's near-5l third at Kempton was his most convincing effort to date both over 3m and on good ground, but also took his record in handicaps off marks in the 120s to 0-8; still needs to find a bit more.

Has won on good to soft and heavy; made light of an absence when winning at Southwell in December but he found little at Ludlow (also 2m4f) last month and has yet to distinguish himself over this far; reservations remain; yard won this in 2019.

His second win over fences when returning from a long absence to take a 2m4f handicap at Southwell (good to soft; won on heavy) in mid-December; that race fell apart in behind but a 4lb rise isn't the end of the world.

Three wins at around 2m in Ireland and latest was over fences for Willie Mullins in June 2023; record of 0-8 for current yard but he rallied well when a creditable third here (2m, good) last month; this is a different test at this new trip but he's well treated on his old form and needs watching in the market; tongue-tie back on.

Another previously useful ex-Mullins horse who's yet to score for this yard; some fair efforts, though, including when second of six at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) at the start of the month; drops back in trip and also needs considering from a career-low mark.

Hurdles/chase winner for Willie Mullins but is 0-6 since joining current stable and returning from long absence; failed to derive benefit from going back over fences the last twice; current mark reflects a decline in his form (20lb higher at his peak).

Suddenly bounced back to form when heavily punted at Bangor (2m4f, good; tongue-tie refitted) in May, but recent efforts have been underwhelming and this drop back in trip may not be ideal; considered only if the subject of another big market move.
