Got right back on track when easily winning 2m handicap chase at Perth (soft) in April. Returned with a good second at Fontwell 5 weeks ago and he's one to consider.

Useful hurdler and quickly reached a similar standard over fences last season, scoring on reappearance at Uttoxeter before good second at Ascot. Creditable second at Kelso on return and is on a competitive mark.

Progressed again last season, winning 3 small-field events, including when making the most of a good opportunity at Ayr final start. Will find this more competitive and has since left Pauline Robson.

18/1
Irish point/hurdles winner who made a perfect start in this sphere when landing a 2m Chepstow handicap a year ago. Decent second at Ascot next time before failing to stay when upped in trip at Cheltenham. Got no further than the second when well backed at Market Rasen final start.

Took well to fences last season, winning first 2 starts. Shaped encouragingly having typically done plenty in the lead at Aintree on return and he remains unexposed.

Belied significant market weakness when defying a penalty in novice at Punchestown 16 days ago but had been withdrawn twice after refusing to line up the previous month and not one for maximum faith.

Completed hat-trick when making a belated winning return over C&D in February. Not disgraced from out of the weights in Red Rum at Aintree since and should be much more competitive here.

Decent strike rate over fences but was once again let down by his jumping at Wincanton on return to this sphere and all of his wins have come at a lower level.

Forecasts

Javert Allen (3/1), Doyen Du Bar (7/2), General Medrano (4/1), Rath Gaul Hill (11/2), Rare Edition (11/1), Etalon (12/1), Abingworth (12/1), Ryan's Rocket (18/1), Luminous Light (25/1), Uncle Phil (66/1)

Verdict

GENERAL MEDRANO was an impressive winner of this last season and is likely to make a bold bid having shaped well at Ascot on his return. Javert Allen also made an encouraging comeback at Aintree and remains of interest, while Rath Gaul Hill shouldn't be underestimated on his reappearance.
