Form & Verdict
Course winner who is back on a good mark now and might have needed last month's run at Catterick, his first since his stable re-opened; sometimes looks awkward when under pressure, though, and comes with added risk.

Rattled off a hat-trick at Ludlow (2m) in February but he beat only one off a 7lb higher mark in 2m1f Newcastle handicap six days ago; could bounce back off a 2lb lower mark.

Weakened when third of five (13-8 favourite) in this last year; back to form, completing a February hat-trick (Sedgefield twice and Ludlow, rising steadily in the weights); reportedly "ran flat" when pulling up at Ayr (2m5f, soft; from 5lb lower) latest; needs to bounce back.

Form & Verdict
Won soft-ground Carlisle bumper a year ago; well beaten in three novice hurdles (2m-2m4f) this term but has taken on some good horses and should be much more competitive in this low-grade handicap; cheekpieces added.

Bumper winner; beaten 5l on handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) but more than double that margin when behind an easy winner at Doncaster (2m3f; tongue-tie added); lightly raced so retains potential and he's up in trip.

Bumper winner who was well backed when third of five to well-treated winner on handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft) recently; a tongue-tie is added to the cheekpieces adopted last time; open to further improvement and he's one to consider.

Bagged a fourth success of the season at Chepstow (2m3f) in February; seemed unsuited by dropping back to 2m when a solid fourth of ten at Hereford 13 days ago and not out of things over this more suitable distance.

Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and scored at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) in February; well-held fourth eight days later at Ffos Las, possibly finding the quick turnaround too much; may resume progress, though the drop in trip is a slight concern.
