Winner of four races at up to 2m2f in 2022, three over fences and one over hurdles (all on good ground); returns after more than two years off the track; on a fair mark but this ground may not be ideal.
Has won two handicaps at Fakenham this summer (both 2m, good; first a seller); fair efforts last two starts (first-time visor latest, retained); back on a good mark and has an each-way chance.
All wins over 2m at Market Rasen, latest off 2lb higher in November 2022 (soft); well beaten after a long break at Carlisle this month; best watched for now.
Seven-race maiden over hurdles; two good runs when in the frame over 2m3f at Ayr on last two starts (good and good to soft); chance despite dropping back in trip.
Won a C&D juvenile maiden hurdle last October (soft); best run for a while when 10l fourth in handicap at Kelso (2m, good to soft; form sound) last month; now 2lb lower; good claims.
Ex-Iain Jardine; yet to win over hurdles but several fair runs, including when second at Musselburgh in February and when 5l sixth of 14 at Newcastle on stable debut last time out; now 2lb lower; a possible.
Both wins on this course, a C&D maiden hurdle in February 2022 (good) and a 2m3f handicap chase on return from a break in October 2023 (good); out of form over fences when last seen in the spring; others look stronger.
Unexposed juvenile; best run when fourth in a C&D novice last month (good); mark raised 9lb; cheekpieces replace blinkers; no easy task on handicap debut.
Showed improved form when runner-up in a Newcastle handicap last month (good) before getting off the mark at Hexham last time (2m, good); 5lb higher now but can go well.
Seven-race winner at up to 1m3f on the Flat, latest over 7f at Carlisle in August (good); showed little in four previous runs over jumps (tried chasing last time) but is very well handicapped on his Flat form so not one to write off for new trainer.
Modest form on the Flat and in three runs over hurdles; hard to fancy from 1lb out of the handicap; stablemate National Question looks to have a better chance.
