12st 0lb

J: Jonathan Burke

T: Fergal O’Brien

Has done well since raised to 2m4f and narrowly beaten at Ascot on his penultimate start by one who was well handicapped; beaten too far out at Uttoxeter last time to blame the longer trip (2m7f) but definite chance at this level if he's back on his game.

J: Jack Hogan

T: Fergal O’Brien

Has a solid record (1212) since upped to about 2m4f, the wins at Uttoxeter (3-3 here overall); good effort at Ascot most recently; bred to stay this longer distance and may improve further; strong contender.

Second-season hurdler who has form figures of 121 since upped to 2m4f, both wins at Uttoxeter (good to soft); goes into deeper waters but may improve further at this sort of distance; respected.

Won a C&D handicap in October (good to soft) and ran just as well in defeat after a 5lb rise at Leicester where soft ground might have been ideal; up another 3lb but firmly enters the reckoning.

J: Jonathan Burke

T: Fergal O’Brien

Bounced back from disappointing seasonal debut to win Uttoxeter handicap (2m4f, good to soft) last month, form that has been well advertised by the placed horses since; not fully exposed after only six hurdle runs and has a big role to play if suited by the slower ground here.
