4/1
Didn't really take to chasing in a trio of starts but just respectable efforts back over hurdles since. Questions to answer switched to chasing again.

11/4
Fair 2m hurdle winner who left his first 2 efforts over fences well behind when winning comfortably at Huntingdon last month. Not in same form under a penalty at Hereford following week but might have found that coming too soon. 2 lb higher now.

Improved form switched to fences this season, winning twice, including at Bangor last month, jumping well from the front. Should go well again.

20/1
Got off the mark in 2m maiden hurdle at Wincanton in April 2023 for Nicky Henderson but it's largely been a case of heavy defeats/non completions since switched to the larger obstacles.

Made a promising start to his chase career when second of 9 in 2m Leicester handicap and better than bare result at Southwell since. Remains open to improvement and leading claims for top stable.

10/1
Made a winning chase debut at Ludlow in November but well beaten completed starts since. Out of the handicap again and easy enough to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Gwennie May Jem (13/8), Iskar D'airy (11/4), Jeudidee (4/1), Orbys River (5/1), Haafback (10/1), Boom Boom (20/1), Mawlood (125/1)

Verdict

ORBYS RIVER pulled clear with a better-than-ever runner-up when making all at Bangor last month and shades the vote over Gwennie May Jem, who has shown enough in 2 starts over fences to suggest he can pick up a race or two. Iskar d'Airy disappointed under a penalty at Hereford last time but a bounce back wouldn't surprise.
