Four-time chase winner who looked as good as ever when second on last month's seasonal debut at Ffos Las (3m, soft); remains on career-high mark but can make her presence felt again.
Failed to complete on both appearances last season and returns from 257-day absence with quite a bit to prove but he's well handicapped on old form and the booking of Sean Bowen catches the eye.
0-6 over fences; battled on for respectable third on seasonal debut at Wetherby (3m, soft) last month and remains unexposed over 3m but seems one-paced and others in this line-up appeal more.
Dropped tamely out of contention on seasonal/chase/handicap debut at Lingfield (2m6f, good) in November but remains unexposed under rules and today's slower ground may show him in a better light.
Not beaten far in any of his three chases in autumn 2024 and returned from layoff with creditable second over hurdles at Bangor (2m7f, good; also suited by soft) in October; needs to rebound from last month's duff effort but has possibilities if back on song for chase return.
0-5 over hurdles for the Greenall-Guerriero stable and was a disappointing favourite on last month's stable debut (2m3f; breathing issue reported); had wind surgery soon afterwards, though, and has tongue-tie fitted for this first attempt at 3m; no surprise if he comes good for Dan Skelton soon.
Runner-up on first two starts last season (2m7f/3m1f, heavy) but pulled up on next three outings; not easy to predict but could quite plausibly have been refreshed by a 279-day break; blinkers removed after one use.
In good form for Olly Murphy this autumn, winning in blinkers at Sedgefield (3m2f, good to firm) and Market Rasen (2m5f, good to soft); moves up in grade for this stable debut, though, and the slower ground may not be ideal; cheekpieces refitted.
Dual chase winner last season, latterly when clinging on by a short head at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) in February; unexposed over 3m but ran poorly on reappearance outing in October and others have more pressing claims.
Well beaten in both handicap hurdles this autumn (2m4f) and clearly needs significant improvement but the combination of a step up to 3m and switch to fences might enable him to deliver on the promise he showed in Irish points; watch the betting.
