Useful chaser who exploited his novice hurdle status with comfortable win in uncompetitive race at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in June; throws in the odd duff performance and fell when last in action but has a big role to play if on his mettle here.

11st 8lb |
Five-time chase winner who faced a simple task when opening his account in this discipline over C&D (good; first-time cheekpieces) this month; has more on his plate under a penalty in this deeper race but he's respected nonetheless. |

11st 2lb |
Five-time chase winner who is 0-9 over hurdles but one of his four seconds in this discipline was when beaten by the odds-on favourite at Stratford (2m6f, good) two weeks ago; faces nothing of the winner's calibre here; likes good ground; cheekpieces worn for the first time. |

Won a good-ground point in the spring and created pretty good impression on rules debut at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last month, readily beating two next-time-out winners; needs to be taken very seriously here.

11st 4lb |
Winner of his second start in points (2m5f, good) before unseating early when favourite for a restricted in May; makes some appeal on hurdle debut, especially if strong in the market. |

Winning Irish pointer who made quite striking rules debut when winning Down Royal hunter chase (2m7f, yielding) by 9l in spring 2023; well beaten in two chases for Jamie Snowden last season but faced tough task on first occasion and bled from the nose on the latter; makes hurdling debut after seven-month break but could have a say.

Successful in point and hunter chase in Ireland; beaten long way when facing tough task in high-quality novice event at Exeter (3m) for new stable; had wind surgery since; open to progress in handicaps and looks one to consider. |

0-8 over hurdles for Gavin Cromwell in Ireland but kept on for respectable fourth in a Sligo maiden (2m1f, good to yielding) three weeks ago and will be fine over this longer trip; could have a say on stable debut. |

Snippets of worthwhile form, including when sixth in a 16-runner 2m4f handicap at Navan last December; faller at last in a handicap hurdle at Naas in April when beaten; disappointing in first-time cheekpieces at Listowel; could feature if restored to best. |

Well beaten at triple-digit odds on all three hurdling starts (2m-2m4f); needs addition of tongue-tie to make a massive difference.
