Badly out of form when last seen in the spring but now 21lb lower than when creditable third over C&D (heavy) last December, after a break, and will be very dangerous in this grade if revitalised by latest layoff.
Runs this track very well and was seemingly back in good nick when close second in C&D (good) hunter chase in April but struggled in a handicap the following month and has become hard to predict.
Inconsistent over hurdles for Charlie Longsdon and well beaten on only chasing attempt for him but shaped well (over hurdles) on last month's seasonal/stable debut and has possibilities here if that outing brought him on.
Very lightly raced 8yo who was pulled up on chasing debut for Alastair Ralph two years ago and has been absent since; still worth a glance in the betting before this stable debut, though.
Doubled chasing tally with 2m3f course win (heavy) in March but three non-completions have followed, the last twice this autumn, and he's not yet proven over this far.
Launched chasing career with two convincing wins last year (2m5f/2m3f); not much has gone to plan since but she may not have handled the heavy ground on last month's seasonal debut and may yet bounce back; new trip.
2-7 over hurdles, the latter win gained at Ffos Las (2m4f, good to soft) in April; ran no race on last month's seasonal/chase debut but could still have a future over fences; moves up in trip today.
0-6 in Irish points; still unexposed under rules but was only fourth best on merit when modest third on handicap hurdle debut at Exeter (2m7f, good to soft) in January and this chasing debut comes after a layoff.
Dual course winner last autumn (3m2f/2m7f) and signed off with two respectable runs here in the spring; not always one to rely upon but resumes on a workable mark and enters calculations.
Versatile mare who won over fences (3m, heavy) and hurdles (3m1f, good) in the spring; shaped well when fifth on last month's reappearance at Stratford (2m6f, good to soft) and remains unexposed as a chaser; big player.
Fell in both chases in 2022-23 season but began second spell over fences with clear second at Stratford (2m6f, good) in May; had wind op during subsequent six-month break and may still have more to offer in this sphere.
Won two 3m chases (good/soft) in 2022-23 season and held clear lead before falling in home straight over C&D (soft) towards end of that campaign; returns from 614-day absence on good mark; market may guide.
Won off much reduced mark at Stratford (2m6f, heavy) in March and finished just ahead of Cooleenymore when keeping-on fourth of 16 over that C&D (good to soft) last month but younger rivals appeal more all the same.
Low-mileage 7yo who bettered his underwhelming chase debut when clear second at Newton Abbot (2m5f, soft) in May; moves up in trip and grade for this first start since; further progress is possible.
