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.

Pulled up after losing a shoe in a handicap chase at Sedgefield last time, having finished in the frame in his five previous races this term, all off much lower marks over fences; went up 19lb when completing a hat-trick in handicap hurdles last season, so although conditions suit, faces a stiffer task now back hurdling.

Three hurdle wins at up to 2m4f last season (all with some give in the ground); fair form over fences at up to 3m2f this term (second over 2m3f here two runs back); wouldn't rule out.

Six-time hurdle winner; 0-11 as a chaser and unproven over this far, but he's running well and a late mistake perhaps cost him here last time (2m3f); chance if he can see this out.

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.

Took a long time to open his account but won four times in cheekpieces (2m3f-2m4f) on ground slower than good last season; already back down to a workable mark but the forecast good ground is probably not ideal on this first start since April, and the cheekpieces are missing.
