18/1
Useful hurdler/chaser who ended a long losing run in 3m Cork handicap hurdle on final start for Gordon Elliott in August. Good second back chasing for his new yard at Carlisle 16 days ago so needs considering.

Progressive handicap hurdler who scored four times at 3m last term, including over C&D. Has won off a break so must enter calculations on his seasonal return.

Fairly useful chaser but winless since 2020 and cheekpieces tried when only eighth in novice chase at Galway in July on his final run for Gavin Cromwell. Goes hurdling for his new yard with a bit to prove.

Fairly useful chaser but he has offered little after 13 months off, pulled up in 2m5f Galway hurdle last month. Hard to warm to.

6/4
Made a successful hurdling debut at Catterick in December and posted solid efforts when twice runner-up in 2m4f novices after, Looks to have got in lightly for his handicap debut so he's a player on his return.

Winless since 2018 but he ended last term in good nick, third in 2m4f handicap at Hexham in April. One for the shortlist.

Forecasts

Silver Flyer (6/4), Wakool (10/3), Eternally Yours (4/1), Snookered (11/1), Jack Devine (14/1), Western Run (16/1), Dallas Des Pictons (18/1), Everybreathyoutake (40/1)

Verdict

A competitive handicap but SILVER FLYER is much the least exposed in this field and also looks to start out in handicaps on a good mark so gets the vote. Wakool made excellent strides last term and is feared most on his return, with Dallas des Pictons not ruled out either on the back of his good chasing second at Carlisle.
