11st 2lb

J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Has been well out of form since returning in September from a break and has offered little switched to hunter chases this year; now back in handicap company for his leading stable and down to a potentially workable mark, but recent efforts temper enthusiasm.

Odds-on third in this race last year before comfortably making all in Stratford hunter chase (2m1f, good) in May; hasn't got near the latter form in eight starts since September however and latest pulled up, despite attracting some support, was a third non completion in a row; others look safer.

He was in better form when runner-up in this last year having won his previous race; very disappointing when pulled up back here just before Christmas and then unseated at Ludlow when 33-1; hard to trust right now.

Player on the form of 2025's hunter chase wins over C&D (good to soft) or 2m1f at Stratford (good); a number of tough tasks (one a Grade 2 hurdle) have contributed to some ragged form figures since, but last time's Fakenham flop is harder to forgive; rider 0-1 under rules (0-8 points).

T: Dan Skelton

Regularly ridden by Heidi Palin (3-12 on him); recent efforts leave plenty to be desired, but it's possible to make excuses and he is now 1lb lower than when making all in this race last year; may face competition for the lead but still has to be taken seriously.
