Lightly raced veteran with a patchy profile but he ran well when close third of six here (3m2f, good to soft) last month and that form has been boosted by the runner-up since; this drop back in trip is no problem and he has claims if he can repeat that latest form.

Nine-time chase winner and last three have come at this track (2m/2m5f); has mixed record since his last success (September 2023) but that was off 5lb higher and he's not been beaten far in last two runs; not ruled out back up in trip.

Multiple good-ground winner, including here over 2m4f; versatile regarding trip; has shown he can be competitive from around this mark in two of his three recent starts; likely to be involved. |

Only 1lb higher than for his Stratford win (2m5f, good) last June; two good runner-up efforts this summer, including over C&D, but he's not easy to predict and needs to bounce back after a poor run at Uttoxeter last time.

21st Jun 2024 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Good-ground specialist with very good 7-21 strike-rate over fences; placed on both starts since returning from a break in April (2m3f/2m4f) and remains on a workable mark; probably won't be far away. |
7/1 |

17th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Good-ground specialist with very good 7-20 strike-rate over fences; made pleasing return from 169-day break when second at Chepstow (2m3f, good) three weeks ago and might be seen to even better effect with usual cheekpieces refitted here; must be considered. |

C&D winner who went close off this mark at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good) in June but he has a mixed record this year and was pulled up at Stratford last time; now goes back up in trip and down in grade but he needs to bounce back again after that laboured effort.

Took advantage of a reduced mark when an easy winner with cheekpieces removed at Perth (2m4f, good; 3-1) last month; held in third at Cartmel last time but that was behind a well-handicapped rival and he still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; shortlisted.

Took advantage of a reduced mark when an easy winner with cheekpieces removed at Perth (2m4f, good; 3-1) two weeks ago; 8lb higher here but he beat an in-form rival by 13l last time and is a major player again if he can back that up. |

Dual hurdle winner who made a bright start over fences when justifying favouritism at Stratford (2m3f, good) last month; up 9lb but he hit a personal best with that comfortable win and should have more to offer in this sphere; big player.

Took a while to get the hang of hurdling but he's thriving now and he won comfortably at Fakenham (2m4f, good) last month; up 7lb but he still has untapped potential and could follow up. |

All of his five chase wins have come at this track but he's finished down the field in his four runs this year, including when back under rules (chase/hurdle) in last two starts; on dangerous mark but he needs to raise his game back over fences.

2m6f novice hurdle winner for this stable last summer prior to finishing a 21l second back over fences at Fontwell (3m2f, good) in September; needs to improve on a couple of modest efforts in points this year for Hannah Lewis now back under rules over fences and returned to his former stable; likely to prove vulnerable for the win to a less exposed type. |
