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 chaser at 2m5f and 2m6f who ran up to his best over fences when last seen in May; yet to score over hurdles from seven attempts but not out of this if translating best form back to hurdles.

Two wins in small-field handicaps earlier this year, over 2m5f on soft and 2m6f on heavy; jumped poorly when well beaten at Uttoxeter on penultimate start and unseated rider back there latest; now has to get back on track. |

Won four times on the Flat and he'd shown bits and pieces of form over hurdles for previous trainer before winning unchallenged at this track (2m3f, good to soft) for new yard 16 days ago; interesting contender.

Useful on the Flat in his prime; no win since 2022, including 0-8 record over hurdles and he was well below form in that sphere on last two starts, the latest for new yard. |

A five-time chase winner, he has adapted well since returning to hurdles in cheekpieces, making all at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) in June and Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) last month (fell when holding a clear advantage in between); has a big penalty but will be difficult to keep tabs on.

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. |
