Form & Verdict

5-10 at Worcester, and no shame in finding things too much from well out of the weights in a de facto 0-160 chase here last month (C&D); 2lb lower than for June's C&D chase win, and no ground issues.

Gained all three chase wins over 2m7f at Worcester, the latest last month, after a break; did well to recover from bad jumping error there but is back up to his career-high mark now and needs to prove he's fully effective on this right-handed track.

Form & Verdict

On the go since February but not flagging, winning three (2m3f-2m6f, good) and setting a new peak RPR last time; still hitting the line strongly, so the 8lb rise for his latest Fontwell score concerns the most.

Form & Verdict

Last month's all-the-way Cartmel win (2m6f, heavy) on stable debut garnered a new personal best RPR on his 18th hurdles start; back on a mark he's been held off in the past, but confidence high and no ground issues.

Dual mares' novice winner (2m2.5f, good and 2m5f, soft) in the 2022-23 season and not overraced since; ready for this long a trip if last time's Stratford fourth is any guide, and she's on an ever tastier mark.

Dual novice hurdle winner two seasons back; still in with a shout when unseating three out at Aintree (2m4f) in May last year; made an underwhelming return from a 338-day break when beaten 45l at Wincanton (2m5f, good) this April and, although she now has a point to prove returning from another break, she's respected in this line-up and Fern O'Brien's claim will help.
