Very smart chaser who landed a 3m Kelso listed in March. Well below par in his 3 outings since, though, including on Kelso reappearance 26 days ago.

13/2
Likeable sort who won twice over C&D last winter. Subsequently found the Plate at the Cheltenham Festival too competitive but respected back in calmer waters after a break. Has won on reappearance before.

5/2
Both chase wins have come in small-field events, effectively left with just one to beat when striking on 19.5f Chepstow reappearance 3 weeks ago. Up 6 lb in a slightly deeper race now but it's possible he could have a fitness edge on some of his reappearing rivals.

9/4
Maiden hurdle winner who has shown useful form in defeat over fences, performing right up to his best when second in 19f Exeter novice when last seen in February. Has gone well fresh before and his yard is among the winners.

Won twice at around this trip for this stable last season, including on reappearance so he's clearly capable when fresh. Prone to the odd mistake, though, so he does come with risks attached.

Much improved when cheekpieces were applied in the spring, completing a hat-trick at up to 3m. Type to go on to even better things again this season but the cheekpieces are left off this reappearance.

10/1
Pair of 17f Kelso wins in the spring and made a creditable return from a 5-month break when second of 3 over 2m here 16 days ago, although he typically didn't look straightforward off the bridle.

Verdict

Evan Williams had a couple of winners at Chepstow earlier in the week so the suggestion is COCONUT SPLASH, who has a hurdle win and a good second in a novice chase to show for his 2 previous visits here. He also has a good record when fresh so an 8-month absence isn't too big a concern. It was hardly a strong race that Flic Ou Voyou won at Chepstow but it does show he's returned in good form so he's put up as the chief threat ahead of Schiehallion Munro.
