Exeter novice hurdle winner over 2m on soft a year ago; beaten in four handicaps but second at Fontwell (2m3f) before midfield at Cheltenham (2m5f); dam was a Listed winner over fences, so this could be more his game.
Dual novice hurdle winner who went close to adding a handicap at Ayr in April (2m4f, good to soft); should be sharper for his Kempton third a month ago (2m5f) and there could be improvement in him over fences; this far should be within range.
3-7 over hurdles and knocking on the door over fences before winning narrowly in a big field at Cheltenham (3m1f, good to soft); a willing mare who should give this another good go, with Lily Bradstock riding again off just a 2lb higher mark.
Beaten just over 3l when fourth at Worcester (2m7f, good) in September on her chase debut but hasn't built on that, with subsequent finishes remote; the ability is there should first-time cheekpieces trigger something.
Narrow winner of a Ludlow handicap hurdle in October (2m5f, good to firm; handles good to soft) before a disappointing show at Hereford; it's hard to be overly confident going chasing on the back of that effort.
Won a maiden hurdle for Henry Daly, for whom she failed to progress over fences after going close on first attempt; joined this yard for 5,000 and faded into a 15l fourth at Southwell (3m, soft); now tries cheekpieces.
Lightly raced and only 2lb higher than for his win over hurdles (2m3f); couldn't live with the front two on his chase debut at Hereford (2m5f, good) but that was a fair first attempt over fences and his jumping could be sharper here.
Sole win in 22 starts came here in a 2m3f handicap hurdle; 0-8 over fences but, with a tongue-tie tried, he went down narrowly to a Paul Nicholls chasing debutant over C&D two weeks ago; good chance with a repeat of that.
