Form & Verdict

Won off 2lb higher at Taunton (2m, soft) in January but he's not gone on from that and was pulled up at Carlisle last month on first run after wind surgery; may have needed that after a break but he's now 1-7 over fences and needs to bounce back near his best; tongue-tie reapplied.

Front-runner who was prone to the odd mistake during last season's novice campaign but he ran well in the main, winning at Taunton (2m, soft) in January, and returns having had wind surgery; could make a bold bid.

Made all at Taunton (2m, soft) in January on third chase start and bounced back from Sandown flop with fair third of five at Hereford (2m3f, soft) last month; can make another bold bid and he's in with a chance.

Form & Verdict

Well handicapped on her best hurdling form but she was only fourth of six on chase debut (2m2f, good) at Kempton last month and was tailed off back there two weeks ago; she needs a transformation back at this trip.

Held up in rear and posed no threat when fourth over 2m2f here on last month's chasing debut, having made a significant mid-race error; however, she might have needed that outing and is of interest if judged on her close second off today's mark in a valuable series final over hurdles in the spring.

T: Jonjo & A J O’Neill

Very inconsistent in handicap hurdles but she won one at Market Rasen in January and penultimate start was career-best form; not proven beyond 2m and unraced over fences, so perhaps best watched this time.

Form & Verdict

Well held over hurdles and fences in his two runs this season but he took a while to find his form last winter and is now 7lb lower than for his win at Wincanton (1m7f, heavy) in January; looks interesting if he can rediscover his spark and he needs watching in market.

Patchy form towards end of last season and well beaten over hurdles on recent reappearance; however, the return to fences and testing ground is in his favour, and he's 4lb lower than when winning at Wincanton (1m7f, heavy) in January; no surprise if he has a big say.

Form & Verdict

Six wins (four hurdles, two chases) since switching to current stable in March 2023 but he's been out of sorts over hurdles and fences in his last three runs; now only 1lb higher than for his last success but he needs to get back on track.

Form & Verdict

10yo who is lightly raced for his age; didn't run badly on heavy ground on final two outings last season and he's back down to the same mark as when completing a double at Chepstow (2m, soft) last November, having won on his reappearance earlier; front-runner who could make a bold bid.
