Back in good form in refitted cheepieces this spring, winning twice at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) before very respectable third at Hexham (2m7f, good); not sure to be ideally suited by today's drop back in trip or the switch back to blinkers but still considered.

Veteran who returned to form when landing a gamble at Newton Abbot (good; cheekpieces added) last month and followed up there 21 days later off a 6lb higher mark; now up to a career-high mark off a further 5lb rise but remains unexposed as a stayer.

Form & Verdict
Pulled up in his final two runs last year but he returned after wind surgery with a front-running win at Fontwell (2m3f, good; 22-1) this month; this is a different test but he won over fences here (3m2f) last spring and 3lb rise for that last success looks fair; respected.

J: Freddie Gingell

Showed the benefit of a fourth wind operation when winning over hurdles at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in May and only narrowly denied by an in-form Skelton horse off 3lb higher two weeks later; below par since but he returns to fences on a competitive mark.

Well treated on peak form but has struggled since returning from wind surgery and finished a well-beaten last of three over 3m2f here in May when he may not have stayed; this much shorter trip and first-time blinkers may help but he arrives with plenty to prove.

T: Ben Clarke

Now 5lb lower than winning winning at Hereford (2m, good) in March 2025 but, following a break, could not justify favouritism when midfield at Stratford (2m2f; good; first run after wind op) last month; sports refitted cheekpieces and tries a new trip here; needs that recent run to have done him good.
