Seemed the only one to cope with the soft ground when winning by 22l over C&D at Christmas and might be flattered, as that RPR is miles in advance of his other figures; soundly beaten off this 8lb higher mark at Huntingdon one month ago, which adds to the doubts.

12yo who is inconsistent nowadays and was a well-beaten third at Chepstow (2m7f, soft) last time out; however, he showed some spark when third there previously (2m7f, good to soft) and it's a positive that he's a previous C&D winner on heavy ground, so isn't ruled out today.

Back down the weights, best with a stamina test in the mud and reappearance third to Take Your Time over C&D (good to soft) was creditable; in-form stable has another live contender.

Back down to a dangerous mark and last season was by no means a washout despite failing to win a race; will turn 12 next month though and he would like the ground soft or heavy ideally.

Three wins last year, the latest at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in November; today's 3lb higher mark ought to be manageable but he hasn't fired on recent outings and is somewhat unreliable nowadays.

Has a good strike-rate and bounced back from a below-par run when winning at Uttoxeter in November (2m7f, good; has also won on soft); therefore it won't be a shock if he can leave behind his heavy last-time-out defeat at Chepstow, but others provide more reliable options.

Took advantage of his drop in the weights to land two 3m handicaps at Ffos Las in the summer and back on song to score at Uttoxeter on latest outing; did the job in tidy fashion last time and, although back up 4lb since, he had markedly better form in 2017 and 2018, including in the mud.

Similar profile to Lalor as he finished third (off a higher mark) in the Paddy Power Gold Cup last term; mixed results over hurdles and fences for new stable this season but latest effort (in first-time cheekpieces) was encouraging; tongue-tie now added; respected.

Smart in his prime and was seemingly back in form when fourth over hurdles at Sandown (2m7f, good to soft) in December, his second run for Sam Thomas; well below that level here just after Christmas, though, and now reverts to chasing with cheekpieces tried.

Reappearance (for new trainer) made it three poor runs in a row over fences; however, his Sandown fourth (2m7f) back hurdling three weeks later under claimer Thomas Doggrell puts him back into serious calculations.

Wore cheekpieces on last four starts, including when he started this season with wins over about 3m at Ffos Las (soft) and Chepstow (good to soft); needed some pushing in the latter and he did not fire when 6-4 favourite back at Chepstow at Christmas; should stay and although he may need to resume his progress, he's lightly raced so that may be possible.
