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.

Multiple hurdle winner who is rated 12lb lower over fences and he rediscovered some form when beaten 2l at Cartmel three weeks ago (2m5f, good); should be bang there if repeating that effort.

J: Ian Power

Returned to form and completed quick hat-trick over hurdles in February (2m-2m4f, good to soft/soft) but quickly went off the boil towards end of last season (pulled up on two of last three appearances); competes off his lower chase mark here and might be allowed an uncontested lead but has a poor completion rate over fences; risky.

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.

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.
