Useful winner at 14f on the level for Alan King and made perfect start for new connections when a smooth winner at Worcester last summer. Hasn't fired in 2 starts this year, though.

Won a Market Rasen maiden and 2m handicap at Worcester last summer and caught the eye when sixth in Bangor handicap (19.6f, good) on his recent return from 14 months off. Interesting.

Consistent performer who got back on scoreboard at Huntingdon (19.6f) in May and has come close on his last 3 outings, latest when second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good) 8 days ago. Shortlist material.

Bumper winner who is gradually progressing over hurdles, just denied on handicap debut at Worcester last month before opening account in maiden at Market Rasen (16.6f, good) 24 days ago. Must enter calculations.

Won over C&D for Donald McCain last autumn but no impact in a couple of starts on level for Fergal O'Brien this summer and best watched on debut for new yard here.

Dual winner at 18.5f last year but not been in same form since and hasn't been seen since falling on Market Rasen chase debut in May. Had wind operation.

Left Martin Keighley on the back of success here last month and followed up for new connections 33 days ago, despite seemingly doing the bare minimum when hitting the front. Claims in hat-trick bid having gone up only 2 lb.

Three-time winner in 2022 but hasn't really threatened on Flat or over hurdles more recently and makes limited appeal.

Modest maiden in Ireland and no signs of improvement in a couple of starts for new yard this month.

Off the mark in this sphere at Worcester last summer but not built on that since and has something to prove at present.
