7/1
Seventeen runs since his last win in 2021 and he came in a below-form fifth of 10 in handicap chase at Warwick (25.4f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Unreliable type.

4/1
Resumed from 8 months off with a good second of 7 in handicap hurdle (4/1) at Exeter (23.1f, heavy) 26 days ago. Switches to fences and this likeable type is well in the mix.

4/1
Winless this term but he's knocking on the door, cheekpieces on for the first time when second of 11 in handicap chase at Catterick (25.2f, good) 17 days ago. Player once more with that form working out well.

11/1
A fair maiden hurdler who comes here on the back of a solid fifth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f, heavy) 16 days ago. Much respected on her chase debut stepping back up in trip.

9/1
It's now 11 runs since his last win in 2023 but he turned in a very good fourth of 19 in handicap chase (18/1) at Fairyhouse (26f, soft) 14 days ago. Must enter calculations with the blinkers sported there again fitted.

10/1
A fair winning hurdler for Harry Fry but yet to hit top form for his new yard, a well-held fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, soft) 13 days ago. More is required back over fences.

9/2
Little show over hurdles but he got off the mark in 6-runner handicap chase at Leicester (22.7f, soft) 42 days ago. Up 4 lb but he's still not taken lightly.

Remains winless but he wasn't disgraced when fourth of 8 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (23.9f, good to soft) 44 days ago. Tongue strap/cheekpieces go on now and he needs considering off a 3 lb lower mark.

On a losing run and she came in a below-form fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (23.8f, soft) 66 days ago. Makes her belated chase debut now with a bit to prove.

Forecasts

Mister Barclay (4/1), Hobb's Delight (4/1), Ronnies Reflection (9/2), Lyrical Genius (7/1), Danny The Fence (9/1), Hot Rod Lincoln (10/1), Dunworley (11/1), Elle Est Beau (11/1), Elfride (12/1)

Verdict

This is wide open but HOBB'S DELIGHT is taken to gain a deserved first victory of the campaign with the form of his recent Catterick second having been franked. Mister Barclay rates a big threat though on the back of a promising reappearance Exeter second, while Ronnies Reflection, Dunworley and Elle Est Beau all command plenty of respect too.
