Age: 9| Weight: 9-12| J: Tom Marquand| T: A King| OR: 103| D

20/1

2019 Northumberland Plate winner who also landed Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot in June. However, he was pulled up back hurdling in November and was laboured when below-par sixth on AW Flat since.

Rock Eagle⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: R Kingscote| T: R M Beckett| OR: 101| CD

Career best when leading late on in C&D handicap 7 weeks ago. Only raised 2 lb and he's unexposed around 2m. Big player.

Form: 14/2351-

Stargazer²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: A Kirby| T: P A Kirby| OR: 100| D

40/1

Sprung a 50/1 surprise at Haydock in September. Has a good record on Newcastle's tapeta but he wasn't close to his best in 2m conditions event there latest. Acts on polytrack.

Form: 001838-

Outbox⁴⁹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Adam J McNamara| T: A Watson| OR: 100| BF

10/1

Progressed into a smart handicapper for Simon Crisford in 2019 but has been off since August of that year ahead of this return for a new trainer. This also his first run on AW. Betting should guide.

Lucky Deal¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Andrew Breslin⁽⁵⁾| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 98| D

16/1

Gained a seventh career success when seeing off 5 rivals in 2m Newcastle handicap 16 days ago. Only nudged up 2 lb so likely to remain competitive.

Form: 140/561-

(2)

True Destiny^p1⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: K Shoemark| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 87| CD

7/1

Solid polytrack record, including a C&D win. Returned to AW to finish creditable 1½ lengths fourth of 9 to Rock Eagle over C&D 49 days ago, needing stiffer test. Cheekpieces on first time. Respected.

Form: 602204-

(4)

Kangaroo Valley^b¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: L Morris| T: P A Kirby| OR: 84

150/1

Useful on the Flat in Ireland for Aidan O'Brien. Nowhere near that level over hurdles for this stable and remains to be seen if a return to the Flat improves matters. AW debut.

Form: 035136/

Amtiyaz²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-5| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 87

15/8

Novice/handicap winner on tapeta this autumn. Unlucky not to finish closer when 2 lengths third of 7 in C&D handicap 4 weeks ago, staying on well after short of room. Going the right way.

Form: 252113-

Forecasts

Rock Eagle (5/4), Amtiyaz (15/8), True Destiny (7/1), Outbox (10/1), Lucky Deal (16/1), Who Dares Wins (20/1), Stargazer (40/1), Kangaroo Valley (150/1)

A useful staying event. AMTIYAZ is still on the upgrade based on his unlucky third over C&D and is taken to resume winning ways. Rock Eagle, a C&D winner last time, is another heading in the right direction and looks next best ahead of Roger Charlton's True Destiny.
