J: Lewis Saunders

T: Olly Murphy

Useful chaser who signed off in the autumn with win off today's mark at Market Rasen (2m5f, good); has gone well when fresh before but is quite tricky to weigh up on this first start over hurdles since 2022.

J: Harry Cobden

T: Faye Bramley

Showed useful form without winning over hurdles for Willie Mullins; left that yard for 64,000gns having finished fourth over fences at Ballinrobe in May but it was an inauspicious stable debut when tailed off in three-runner affair here (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; needs to leave that behind tackling 3m for the first time.

J: Harry Cobden

T: Faye Bramley

Showed fairly useful form over hurdles for Willie Mullins without managing to add to his French wins; beaten favourite switched to fences last time (sold for 64,000gns since) but may improve with that experience under his belt and is interesting on debut for Faye Bramley, who has done well with recruits from other yards (including ex-Closutton runners).

J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Two hurdle wins since May and he squeezed in a successful chase debut at Worcester (2m7f, good) in between; latest third over hurdles here (about 2m7f, good) was a solid effort last Tuesday and he's a firm candidate again; due to go up 1lb.

Bids for a four-timer after two wins over hurdles and a chase success in between; had nothing in hand last time at Worcester (2m7f, good) and he'll need another career best off 4lb higher.

Bagheera Ginge

12st 2lb

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

Front-runner who returned from seven-month break with 7l win in first-time visor over C&D (good to firm) last month; only 3lb higher than for that success but he failed to repeat the form when a remote fifth at Worcester (2m7f, good); that was another blip in his patchy profile and he needs to bounce back again.

Front-runner who returned from seven-month break with 7l win in first-time visor at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) last month; only 4lb higher here but the market principals in that race disappointed and the form is of questionable value; raced mainly on good ground but has won on good to soft and been placed on soft.

Seven-time chase winner who developed into a useful performer last season; below form at Uttoxeter recently and tricky to weigh up over hurdles but still looks tempting, given he's 27lb lower in this sphere.

Chase record is 7-20, the most recent success in veterans' contest at Ascot (3m, good) in March; couple of sound efforts since demonstrate that he remains in form aged ten; faces a tougher assignment off current mark in this field, however.

Back in top form this season; justified favouritism at Stratford (3m3f, good to firm) last time, taking chase record to 5-19; however, the memory of his dismal effort in this contest two years ago (when bidding for a four-timer) tempers enthusiasm.

Profited from a final-fence mistake from Defying Gravity to make winning C&D chase debut (good to soft; 7-4 favourite, from 6lb lower) in May; didn't jump with fluency when runner-up at Worcester (beaten over 8l) next time; back from wind surgery, with headgear also tweaked.

T: Olly Murphy

Broke his duck over hurdles after a few near misses and made a winning start to fences at Perth (3m) on his return from a break last month, albeit narrowly with the second making a costly error at the last; lacked fluency there but kept on well and, although a 6lb higher mark asks a question, another bold bid can be expected.
