Point winner who got off the mark over fences on his second attempt, at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March; third on both starts since and first-time cheekpieces are now employed along with regular tongue-tie; should be thereabouts.

Off the mark over fences at second attempt, with very comfortable win in four-runner C&D (good) contest in March; again ran well when third at Southwell (2m4f, good; albeit finished tired) last month and is sure to be suited by the return to this track.

J: Jonathan Burke

T: Fergal O’Brien

This Irish point winner was having only his second chase start when landing a cosy success in a small-field Huntingdon handicap (2m4f, good) three weeks ago; seems to have odd quirk (hung left on the run-in at Huntingdon) but has the potential for better again over fences.

Point runner-up who improved upon his previous rules form when 5l second of four at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March when wearing first-time cheekpieces (retained) on his second chase/handicap start; this very lightly raced 7yo may have more to offer and could be involved.

Weak claims on hurdles form but looks a possible improver on this handicap/chase debut; showed promise in the second of two attempts in Irish points; interesting, especially if the market speaks favourably.

Five chase wins, including 2023 edition of this race; pulled up at Fakenham two starts ago but his other three runs this year were very respectable; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time blinkers; likely to give this a good shot from the front.

A win and (in this race) a half-length second, each off 2lb lower, to show from two C&D visits (good) last summer; plenty in his favour again once more, though a Fakenham flop latest needs forgiving.

Won two handicap hurdles (2m, good to soft/good) towards end of last season but has not really convinced on his three chasing starts this term, with best run coming in race in which half the fences were omitted; the forecast ground here might be slower than ideal; others preferred.

Displayed significant improvement when switched to handicap hurdles towards end of last season, winning at Southwell (2m, good to soft) and by 10l at Plumpton (2m, good); makes chasing debut after 161-day absence and takes on two in-form rivals but could still have more to offer.
