Lightly raced over fences (2-4) and comes into this off the back of a narrow success over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m3f, good) in September; may yet have more to offer in this sphere and a major player.

Won over hurdles at Market Rasen (good) in September and also with a strong finish over fences at Sedgefield (soft) 12 days ago; 3-5 in this sphere, with one of the wins at 2m4f, and he's a leading contender despite going up another 4lb.

Form & Verdict

Bit of a mixed bag over the past year with his latest sixth of seven at Bangor (2m4f, good) in June a particularly moderate effort, since when he has undergone wind surgery; however, he has a fine record over hurdles/fences here (11231) and is proven fresh; high on the list.

Form & Verdict

1-1 in bumpers, but 0-11 over obstacles and has something to prove after a modest effort on his second start over fences at Exeter (2m1f, good) last time; needs to benefit from the first-time blinkers.

Course bumper winner who is 0-12 over hurdles/fences but he's been an encouraging third this autumn on two of his three chase starts, including in first-time blinkers (retained) at Sedgefield (2m3f, soft) recently when he went clear before fading; could capitalise on the drop back down in trip.

Form & Verdict

Dual winner here (including over this trip) who ran poorly in his last two starts over fences in the spring, but should be all the better for a couple of spins over hurdles since returning last month; well handicapped on his best chase form and respected.

Unraced over hurdles since 2018 and well beaten over fences on final two runs last season; however, he's very well handicapped on last season's best chase form and this two-time course winner reappears in a race featuring his trainer in the title; can go well fresh; interesting contender.

Form & Verdict

Had some smart form over fences when trained by Joseph O'Brien including when runner-up in the 2019 Arkle, but not at the same level now and was last seen finishing third of five in a claiming hurdle for Alan Jones at Fakenham (2m, good to soft) in March; makes his debut for another new yard after eight months off and lots to prove.

Useful when trained in Ireland; terrible completion record (fences/hurdles) for current yard until he got round in a Leicester claimer last month, tiring after doing too much up front (finished behind Weebill); may improve on that effort granted an economical journey.
