Nothing like the force of old but runs this track very well and will be very well suited by today's ground; ahead of Begin The Luck when second to a next-time-out winner over C&D (good) nine days ago and another 1lb lower today; probably won't be far away.

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. |

Won from the front off today's mark at Warwick (2m4f, good; beat Opening Bid) in October but looked out of sorts when pulled up on last two appearances and it takes a leap of faith to support him here.

Won good-ground chase at Warwick (2m4f) in the autumn and returned from a break with an encouraging run in May; needs to rebound from a poor performance last month but still enters calculations. |

Five-time chase winner (once over C&D): posted two good efforts at Uttoxeter in June (2m5f/2m, good) and has good claims if judged on those but ran very poorly at Stratford last month and was well behind a couple of these when fifth over C&D nine days ago.

Bumped into an improver at Uttoxeter before running well in a stronger Class 2 event there three weeks ago; likely competition for the lead is a concern. |

Awarded race outright after initially dead-heating at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last month and is now 2-3 over fences; could still have significant improvement to come and needs to be taken very seriously.

28th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who returned from long absence to make a winning chase/handicap debut here (2m5f, good) last month; only second when odds-on for four-runner C&D race (soft) 19 days ago but probably still has potential. |
7/2 |

2nd 2 |
9th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who was returning from a long absence when winning with a bit in hand on recent chase debut over 2m5f here (good), having jumped well in the main; just 5lb higher and should deal with that okay. |

4-13 over fences (including a C&D win); behind Kauto The King and not quite at his best when third over C&D (good) nine days ago but he went close off a similar mark to today's here in June and enters calculations.

Fairly useful hurdler/chaser when trained by Dan Skelton; won a point last year and it was a useful hunter chase in which he was beaten only 11l at Taunton recently; may need more here but not dismissed. |

Not getting any younger but has made the frame in three slow-ground chases (2m6f-3m2f) since returning from a long absence in February and will also be suited by today's quicker surface; pulled up with a circuit to go over hurdles last month (jockey felt something was amiss) but could have a say if all is well here.

On the downgrade now but made the frame in his last three chases and should be fine back over hurdles; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time blinkers here; probably won't be far away. |

29th May 2024 Soft 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |

Not the force of old but still runner-up off today's mark in consecutive races towards end of last season (2m6f, heavy/3m1f, soft); unlikely to be far away. |
3/1 |
