11st 10lb

J: Toby McCain-Mitchell

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

Can front-run; Cheltenham regular, where he won a 3m Grade 2 last January; sixth in this in 2024 and ran creditably here on three of his first five starts this season, before a big run under Toby McCain-Mitchell at Chepstow 19 days ago; back up 2lb to his career-high mark but probably not far away.

J: Toby McCain-Mitchell

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

Cheltenham regular, where he won a 3m Grade 2 last January from Monmiral; ran creditably there on three of his latest four starts but he's only 2lb off his career-high mark; cheekpieces (worn on last three starts) are off; 5lb claimer is recruited.

11st 8lb

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

Course regular who won this last year (soft); however, today's contest looks like it will take more winning, even before factoring in the 6lb penalty he carries this time around; looks vulnerable on this season's evidence.

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

Largely sound record over hurdles at Cheltenham includes a second-place finish in this contest last year and success in the Cleeve next time; well held over fences here most recently but looks likely to give his running returned to this sphere.

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

His two chase starts came back in autumn 2022 and he made mistakes, but showed strong form nevertheless; won Grade 2 Relkeel Hurdle here (3m, soft) in January and ran pretty well in handicap hurdle here last month; stable has a good record in the race and he could go well; new headgear combination.
