Has returned in impressive fashion this time in work. Placed when resuming in a hurdle (4200m) at Kempton Park then won last time by 6 lengths in a maiden hurdle (4100m) at Plumpton most recently.

Was very good when returning from a 318-day layoff most recently, beaten 5 lengths into second in a maiden hurdle (3200m) at Southwell. That run was the first for the Dan Skelton stable. Key runner who is expected to feature again.

Missed the frame two runs ago when resuming in a hurdle (4100m) at Southwell. Was far more impressive last time when he filled a minor placing in a hurdle (4100m) at Southwell. Will thereabouts once more.

Scored two starts back in a hurdle (4300m) at Wetherby then was not disgraced over 4900m in a hurdle (4900m) at Southwell. Likely to be there at the finish.

Second up. Got into a bit of bother when fifth in a hurdle (4600m) at Exeter first up. Will strip much fitter for the run. Could pose a serious challenge.

Winner of both starts this time in, scoring in a hurdle (4800m) at Wetherby last time by 3 lengths. Expected to be prominent throughout. In top form and can make it a winning hat-trick.

Was unplaced two back in a hurdle (3200m) at Ffos Las. Found the frame last time in a much better performance in a hurdle (4900m) at Aintree, beaten 1.3 lengths. Looks to have the job ahead.

Not raced for eight months. Appeared just once last time in and finished third in a hurdle (4700m) at Chepstow, beaten 28 lengths. This looks a tough line-up.

Clocked-in third two runs ago in a hurdle (4360m) at Fontwell Park. Repeated the dose at the latest outing when second in a hurdle (4900m) at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Not keen on his chances this time.
