Form & Verdict

Point/hurdles winner; 0-7 as a chaser but has consistent form (over 2m-2m4f) this season, most recently second at Ayr in first-time blinkers, and is getting gradual help from the assessor having been dropped another 1lb; worthy of respect.

Form & Verdict

Ex-Irish maiden whose form lacks consistency; trailed home last of six finishers in 2m5f novice handicap chase here on debut for new stable, having been friendless in the betting; something to prove back down in trip with usual tongue-tie removed.

Form & Verdict

Form figures of 1123 since switched to chasing, the wins gained on good to soft going; not so effective on heavy at Ayr last time (below-par third, behind Heartbreak Kid); suited by this course and may have more to offer now back on better ground.

Form & Verdict

Handicap/chase debutant who looks well treated on peak hurdles effort, namely his solid second at Fontwell (2m1f, good; split subsequent winners) in November; disappointing favourite last time but is open to any amount of improvement in this new scenario.
