Two wins from last three starts (made all in both); beat Gerard Mentor at Exeter this month and likely to make another bold bid from the front off just 2lb higher mark.

Made all to beat six rivals at Ludlow in May (2m, good to soft) but he dropped out very tamely next time at Worcester; only 2lb higher than for his win but on the balance of his exploits he needs taking on.

Placed in three consecutive handicaps on good to firm ground last summer/autumn and made satisfacory reappearance when third (albeit beaten about 16l) at Taunton (2m, good) last month; more exposed than some of these but probably won't be far away.

Runner-up in both handicaps since cheekpieces were fitted, the latest behind Rathnure Ranger at Exeter this month; more than enough ability to win but hasn't appeared fully focused in a finish; should go close.

Seemingly aided by refitted cheekpieces on the Flat this year and continued the good work when keeping on strongly for close third over hurdles at Exeter (2m1f) this month; contender if suited by today's move back up in trip.

Maiden under both codes but he has run well on occasions this year on the Flat and he was twice runner-up over hurdles before struggling in a couple of handicaps (tongue-tie/blinkers); cheekpieces, which have helped on the Flat, could make a difference back jumping.

A model of consistency over the last 12 months, Flat and jumps, and he again ran creditably when third of ten at Taunton (2m3f, good to soft) nine days ago; holds no secrets from the handicapper but should be thereabouts.

Got up late at Stratford (2m3f, good; 13-2) in August and, with the runner-up going one better next time, a 5lb rise looks fair; this shorter trip of no real concern around here and he's high on the list.

In good hands and nicely bred, but he didn't offer much in three novice hurdles as when third at Warwick (2m, good to soft) he was beaten more than 20l in a field of five; tongue-tie added for handicap debut and probably capable of a better effort sooner or later.
