12/1
Stepped forward from recent run when scoring decisively at Newcastle (2½m) in April. Wasn't in the same form when fifth of 9 at Aintree next time, but he's had a breathing operation since ahead of this drop back in trip.

50/1
Fairly useful hurdles winner for Joseph O'Brien who also won a Sligo maiden on third chase start in 2024. After 14-month absence, offered little on sole outing for James Moffatt in handicap chase at Haydock in November. Off again since (has had breathing operation) ahead of stable debut.

Winner on hurdling debut for Nicky Henderson and, making second run for current yard, bounced back to form when making all in mares handicap at Musselburgh in November. Has put up bold shows both starts since, third at Cartmel last month, and she's interesting switched to chasing.

With blinkers reapplied back over hurdles, returned to winning ways in 6-runner handicap at this venue 15 days ago. Can remain competitive quickly back chasing, successful in this race last year off his current mark.

4/1
Capitalised on a falling mark when recording a first success over fences in 3-runner handicap at Newton Abbot last month. Back over hurdles, travelled best when runner-up to an improved rival at the same venue 7 days later. Respected for his leading yard.

8/1
Fair hurdler, winning a 2½m mares maiden at Sedgefield last season. Sent handicapping in this sphere, showed more than on first 2 starts over fences when runner-up in 7-runner handicap at Bangor (2½m) last month, albeit held when left second at the last.

15/8
All 3 wins over this C&D, successful here on first 2 starts for this stable last month. Wasn't able to land the hat-trick but shaped best when fourth of 9 at this course (2½m) 15 days ago, mistake at the last after hitting the front. Well worth another chance.

Forecasts

Conquer The Breeze (15/8), Kientzheim (11/4), Cobbler's Boy (4/1), Herja (8/1), Glory And Honour (17/2), Parisencore (12/1), Cossack Chach (50/1)

Verdict

CONQUER THE BREEZE has shown improved form in 3 starts for current yard, successful over C&D on first 2 outings before putting up a good effort in his hat-trick bid. He can resume winning ways back down in trip, though Cobbler's Boy isn't taken lightly for the Skeltons, while last year's winner Glory And Honour could also go well.
