Bleu Denfer

12st 2lb

J: Harry Brown

T: Donald McCain

Has a modest strike-rate of 1-22 over fences, the win coming at Carlisle over 2m4f in April 2025 in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) when trained in Ireland; has been below his best on last two runs and drops back in trip; others hold stronger claims.

Bleu Denfer

J: Theo Gillard

T: Donald McCain

Has modest 2-31 strike-rate under rules but came second over 2m4f on two of his first three starts after a wind op in March, and looked stretched by 3m when below that form last month; versatile regarding ground and enters calculations.

Last season started well but petered out and it might be happening again, as although it wasn't a bad run behind Cheltenham Festival heroine White Noise two starts back, Chepstow last time was underwhelming (well behind Siog Geal; soft ground no excuse).

T: Jonjo & A J O’Neill

Narrowly made a successful reappearance at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) off 5lb lower; worrying that last season petered out after starting well, though it was by no means a bad run at Newbury when 11l behind White Noise who won the Dawn Run at Cheltenham on Thursday; goes well fresh.

Mister Cessna

J: Jack Hogan

T: Fergal O’Brien

Off the mark at Uttoxeter on chase debut in October (2m, good); decent second next time but last two runs have been a bit disappointing (26l last of four at Stratford last month); may well have the race run to suit him and he's a possible.

Won readily by 5l on British chasing debut at Uttoxeter in October (2m, good); absent since disappointing run over 2m4f on New Year's Day but could still have potential and will be dangerous if back on song after 108-day break.

Course winner who was in good form until a below-par fifth of six in 2m Warwick handicap chase 16 days ago; cheekpieces go on now and she's the sort to bounce back.

Won two 2m chases last season (soft/good) and this season's largely consistent record includes a good second over C&D; current mark is workable; likely to be in the shake-up.

J: Robert Dunne

Built upon previous form when coming good at the fifth attempt over hurdles at Wetherby (2m, good to soft) last month; up 7lb but if the better ground was the reason for his improvement then he must also be considered here.

Encouraging third in maiden hurdle at Southwell (2m, good to soft) in December; pulled up on handicap debut here (2m3f, soft) since; might be back on better ground today which, along with the drop back in trip, could make him a different proposition; no surprise to see a good run.
