Another Day Out
Won a mares' handicap chase at Huntingdon (2m6f) in May and she went very close over C&D last month, on second run after a break; only 1lb higher here but she refused to race last week and comes with risks attached; last six runs have been on good/good to firm but she won a point on soft.

Iron D'ex
Returned from a summer break with a game win on chase debut here (2m4f, good) last month but he's hard to predict and was tailed off on soft ground at Bangor since; has something to prove again after that major blip and others are more solid; cheekpieces reapplied.

Touchwoodexpress
Point winner who has done well since switched to chasing, with a clearcut win at Huntingdon (2m7f, good) followed by a creditable second behind a well-handicapped rival at Warwick (3m1f, good); up another 5lb but he's open to more progress and won't mind the return to slower ground; big player for yard that won this last year.

Coconut Twist
Justified support on chase debut at Newton Abbot (2m5f, soft) in May; mixed record in six runs since but was placed in first-time blinkers at Lingfield (2m7f, good) recently and has claims if he can back that up.

Jo Lescribaa
Placed in two French bumpers but well held in five hurdle runs in Britain, including in handicaps (2m4f/2m3f) in his final two runs last season; in good hands and still early days but he needs improvement now upped to 3m on chase debut.

Fashion's Model
Seems fairly versatile regarding ground and trip; ended last season with a win at Wincanton (2m4f, soft) but she started this one with a heavy defeat here (2m4f, good) last month; still lightly raced over fences but has a very patchy profile and others are more convincing.

Blackacre
Has claims on best hurdle efforts but he's 0-8 over them and was a well-held sixth of eight on recent chase debut at Hereford (3m1f, good); cheekpieces are now added and he needs to leave that latest form behind.

His 19 races have produced one win, off this mark over hurdles at Wincanton (2m4f) in March 2023; switched to chasing in his last three runs and he's shown some promise including when a rallying third at Perth (3m, good to soft) in May; should have more to offer in this sphere and he's in the mix on his return.
