Form: 115/4-23

Dixie Cowboy³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Tom Midgley⁽³⁾| T: S England| OR: 93| BF| C

3/1

Made a winning chasing debut over 2m here in November and good runner-up efforts at Hexham and back here (both 2m again) last month. Runner-up in a handicap hurdle around 2½m. Another bold show is likely.

Form: 2/6-9122

The Jeweller's Pet^p²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Joe Williamson| T: I A Duncan| OR: 93

12/1

Landed back-to-back Ayr handicap hurdles wins last February. Hasn't managed to reproduce that form switched to fences this winter but he was in contention when hampered and unseated just after 2 out at Ayr 23 days ago.

Form: 5-6P84U

Huit Reflets^v⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: William Maggs| T: M Walford| OR: 89| C

6/4

Is enjoying a very good season and got off the mark over fences in 2m course handicap on Boxing Day. Creditable third of his revised mark at Catterick (19f, good to soft) on Wednesday. Likely to give another good account if coping with the quick turnaround.
