Fairly useful 2-time juvenile hurdle winner last season. Creditable couple of efforts to start this campaign but disappointed more recently and remains to be seen if switch to chasing rekindles the spark.
Four-time course winner including this contest 12 months ago. Yet to make an impact this term but is 3 lb below his last winning mark and could prove dangerous if first-time visor has desired effect.
Drew a blank over fences last season but returned to winning ways over hurdles when taking a handicap at this course (15.9f) on reappearance in November. Run creditably twice since and is attractively weighted back over the larger obstacles here.
Quickly off the mark over fences in 4-runner novice handicap at Southwell (15.8f) in November. Not in the same form at Ludlow next time (possibly unsuited by course) but retains potential.
Still winless over fences (0-29 in this sphere and just 1-39 overall) and faces a tough task from so far out of the handicap here.

Forecasts
Non Stop (7/4), Alto Alto (15/8), An Bradan Feasa (10/3), Jolyjump (13/2), Clondaw Robin (50/1)
NON STOP won over hurdles here earlier this season and figures off a handy mark back over the larger obstacles. He can land the spoils. Jolyjump should appreciate the return to a left-handed track and rates the chief threat.
