Willmount
Did not fulfill his potential over hurdles for Nicky Henderson but, following a layoff, seemed to be running well before falling at fourth-last fence on stable/chase debut at Ffos Las (2m3f, soft) last month; could still have a good future over fences.

Toss Of A Coin
Low-mileage 7yo who went close on chase debut for Paul Nicholls at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) just under a year ago; pulled up on next two outings (cheekpieces added last time) and makes stable debut after ten-month break (same owner); had wind op during the summer; consult the market for clues.

Ivaldi
Returned from long absence with two disappointing hurdle runs last season and makes chasing debut after another ten-month layoff; had wind op during the summer; current ability very hard to gauge.

Elysian Knight
Won two novice hurdles last season (2m4f/2m5f) and signed off with creditable second in valuable novices' handicap at Plumpton (2m4f, good) in April; upped in trip for seasonal/chase debut; one to consider.

Felicie Du Maquis
Dual point and three-time hurdle winner but well beaten in both chases, one in 2023 and the latter on seasonal debut 16 days ago; given a good chance by the handicapper but needs to get her act together over fences.

Bective Abbey
Irish point winner with 2-5 strike-rate over hurdles; well held when second of four on chase debut at Southwell (3m, good) in June but very respectable sixth of 18 in competitive Cheltenham handicap hurdle (2m5f, soft) last month, after a break, and Nicky Henderson is evidently keen to switch him back to fences.

Alan De Banks
Bumper winner who made the frame in all three hurdle races, most recently when second on handicap debut at Ffos Las (3m, soft) in January; makes chasing debut after 11-month absence but still looks interesting.
