Age: 8|  Weight: 12-2| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams| OR:  127| C| D
Fairly useful hurdler who made a winning return in that sphere at this track last year. Pulled up in a competitive event at Aintree 8 months ago but starts out over fences for stable with fine record with similar types.

Age: 8|  Weight: 12-1| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR:  126| C
Winning pointer/hurdler who improved again to make a successful chasing debut at Ffos Las in October. Struggled in listed company at Warwick next time but may yet have more to offer in this sphere.

Age: 9|  Weight: 11-11| J: C J Todd| T: Ian Williams| OR:  122
Seemingly not the force of old and was pulled up over hurdles at Sandown last time, so plenty to prove back over the larger obstacles.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-11| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR:  122
Went in at the first attempt over fences at Southwell in October and backed it up with a good staying-on third of 5 in handicap chase at Doncaster (19.1f, good) 37 days ago. Merits serious consideration back up in trip.

Age: 10|  Weight: 11-9| J: M G Nolan| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR:  120
Chase debut winner at Exeter in November 2022 but more miss than hit since and was pulled up at the same course last time. Hard to make a solid case for.

Age: 8|  Weight: 11-1| J: Isabel Williams(3)| T: Evan Williams| OR:  112
Made light of a six-month lay-off when landing 5-runner handicap chase at Stratford (22.6f, good to soft) in October and generally respectable efforts since, third here last time. Not dismissed.

Age: 7|  Weight: 10-6| J: Jack Tudor| T: Christian Williams| OR:  103
Winner over hurdles at Perth in June and followed that with a couple of respectable efforts in defeat. Yet to fire over fences but it's still early days.

Forecasts

Smiling Getaway (9/4), Ramo (11/4), Roger Pol (4/1), Party Business (8/1), Balkardy (8/1), Masters Legacy (12/1), Fever Dream (14/1)

Verdict

ROGER POL, having made a winning start to chasing, found the trip too sharp last time, so he's fancied to get back on the up returned to a suitable distance. Smiling Getaway still has more to offer in this sphere and Ramo looks a fascinating chasing debutant.
