Returned from a spell on November 23 with a second, beaten 1.5 lengths, in a hurdle (4800m) at Windsor. Fitter and can find winning form this time.

Didn't fire second up when fifth in a hurdle (4900m) at Aintree. Fitter but needs to bounce back to feature.

Well beaten in a Taunton hurdle at big odds last time when eighth. Hard to have on recent form.

Recent form has been good including a win in a hurdle (4950m) at Aintree last time after finishing second two starts back. Key chance again.

Two starts back. Finished fifth last time, beaten 50 lengths, in a hurdle (4800m) at Windsor. Confidence looks to be down.

Returned from a spell last start with a modest fourth in a hurdle (4300m) at Wetherby. Boasts strong second-up stats. Has ability and can sneak into the finish.

Six-year-old who resumed over 5000m in a hurdle at Carlisle 6 days back, finishing sixth and beaten 39 lengths. Can improve second-up but others still look better.

Failed to complete the course two starts back. Made amends last time to greet the judge by 9 lengths in a hurdle (4700m) at Uttoxeter. All set to make it two on the bounce.

Returns from a spell of 10 months. Made just the one appearance last campaign and finished in the minors in a hurdle (4100m) at Ayr, beaten 1.75 lengths. Reliable type with two jumps wins to his name. Worth thought on last run form.

Made a winning return from a 105-day layoff last time out in a hurdle (5000m) at Warwick partnered by today's jockey Lewis Saunders. That run was the first for the Olly Murphy yard. Strips fitter and is again a top chance.
