Disappointed when seventh in a hurdle (4000m) at Ffos Las first-up from a spell. Looks a player on best form. Chance to atone.

Finished fourth when fresh from a spell last start in a hurdle (4360m) at this track, with today's rider Freddie Gordon steering. Fitter and will be tough to beat this time.

Filled a minor prize two runs ago in a steeplechase (4100m) at Southwell. Repeated the dose at the latest outing when second in a steeplechase (4340m) at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Well-placed to take this out.

Returns after a spell of seven months. Was in strong form last time in, recording two wins from six starts, but failed to finish at the last run in a steeplechase (4800m) at Fakenham. Looking to others this time.

Has failed to make an impact recently, last time out beaten 10 lengths when fifth over 3900m in a steeplechase at this track. Handy when right and is not to be underestimated.

Finished eighth when fresh from a spell last start in a maiden hurdle (3830m) at this track, with today's rider Harry Kimber aboard. That run was the first for the R Walford yard. Tougher task this time.

Returns from a spell. Closed the last campaign with a minor placing in a steeplechase (4800m) at Fakenham, beaten 30 lengths. Hard to have without further improvement.
