Feldon Dunsmore Budbrooke Handicap Chase

Top-class chaser at best (Betfair Chase winner and third in Cheltenham Gold Cup in 2019/20) but doesn't appear to retain a great deal of that ability.

Enhanced good strike rate over fences with facile victory at Doncaster (19f, heavy) in March. Yet to fire this season, however.

4Bumper/dual hurdle winner who took record to 4-4 in a warm Carlisle novice handicap on chase debut in October. Lost unbeaten record with a bit of a whimper at Chepstow and left with nothing to beat at Haydock but still looks the type to go on and make his mark in some good handicaps.

Dual novice hurdle winner last winter and better form when placed in novice handicap chases at Exeter and Ffos Las this time round. Stiff task in Scilly Isles at Sandown last time and more realistic claims in a race like this.

Fairly useful hurdler who got off the mark at the second attempt in that sphere at Pau in January. Easy winner on debut for this stable and open to plenty of improvement, so excellent claims.

Useful hurdler who scored twice as a novice in this sphere during 2019/20 campaign. Good efforts on 2 of his 3 outings this year and can't be discounted.

Good second of 6 in handicap chase at Wincanton (20.2f, soft, 10/3) 48 days ago. Usually consistent but he's an infrequent winner. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

Ex-French hurdler who ran right up to his best on the back of a lengthy absence when gaining third chase success at Chepstow in December. By no means disgraced when chasing home a well-treated rival at Lingfield (2½m, good to soft) recently and he's a major player.

C&D winner who has produced some solid efforts to hit the frame this season. Likely to give another good account.
