Stopped the slide when fourth at Punchestown but he's inconsistent nowadays so needs to back that up.
|
Five-time winner over fences who was poised to get back on the scoreboard before unseating rider late on at Hereford (16f, soft) in March. Struggled in Red Rum at Aintree since but will find this much less demanding.
|
Latest win in chase at Down Royal in January. Found Red Rum at Aintree too competitive before stamina stretched at Killarney (26f), but more of an impact when fourth at Punchestown (20.2f, good, 40/1) 3 weeks ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Not taken lightly.
|
Dual winner of the Summer Plate. Placed 3 times last season, including when second in cross-country event at Cheltenham in December. Below par next 2 starts but back to form when third at Perth 3 weeks ago.
|
Back on the scoresheet with a decisive display in this race 12 months ago off 7 lb lower. Followed up at Catterick in November and much better effort since when respectable fourth over C&D 5 weeks ago. Big run could be on the cards.
|
Often let down by jumping for Gordon Elliott and ran no sort of race on debut for this yard 5 weeks ago. Best to look elsewhere.
|
Bagged his second chase win at Doncaster in December and not disgraced since. Possibilities, though this trip is beyond his optimum.
|
Useful hurdle/chase winner for Willie Mullins but drawn a blank for Patrick Neville and Mike Smith. However, some encouragement when fifth of 9 in handicap chase at Perth (20.1f, good to firm, 11/1) on second start for this yard 3 weeks ago and headgear back on.
|
Three wins from 13 runs last season. Good second of 5 in mares chase (7/2) at Limerick (19.7f, good) last month but disappointed back hurdling 3 weeks ago.
|
Dual 3m chase winner in 2022. Only good effort last season came away from the mud when third in Premier Handicap at Doncaster (3m) in January. Step back in right direction when second of 5 here (25.5f, good to soft) 36 days ago, clear of rest. Becoming well treated and drying ground in his favour.

Forecasts
Charlie Uberalles (3/1), Bella Bliss (4/1), Francky Du Berlais (11/2), Glory And Honour (13/2), Ganapathi (13/2), Arthur's Quay (11/1), Final Orders (12/1), Irish Blaze (12/1), Mackenberg (40/1), Coqolino (50/1)
CHARLIE UBERALLES is lurking on a dangerous mark having finished third in the Great Yorkshire Chase at Doncaster off 4 lb higher in January and his latest second here was a big step back in the right direction. This has likely been the target for last year's winner Arthur's Quay and he rates the main threat ahead of Irish Blaze.
- Arthur's Quay11/1
- Irish Blaze12/1
