11st 2lb

J: Brendan Powell

T: Clare Ellam

Four-time chase winner; no longer the force of old but returned from break with three placed runs last month, losing out only by a short head at Fontwell (3m2f, good) last time; can make his presence felt again.

J: Brendan Powell

T: Clare Ellam

Four-time chase winner (once over C&D); no longer the force of old but returned from break with two pretty good thirds this month, the latter at Bangor (3m, good); contender if in similar form again.

J: Ryan Mania

T: Clare Ellam

First form since summer 2024 when an 80-1 third at Fontwell this month (3m2f, good); trip and ground as much to suit again this time, but no certainty to back up that effort.

J: Ben Poste

T: Clare Ellam

Battled on gamely to finish first at Southwell (3m2f, good; later disqualified) in July 2024 but returned from long absence with very disappointing run last month and is far too inconsistent to rely upon.

40/1
