Eased out of the race when first up from a 195- day spell most recently in a hurdle (4900m) at Haydock Park. Looking elsewhere.

Did not fire when he finished 12th in a hurdle (4900m) at Haydock Park last time out, following on from a win when resuming in a hurdle (4800m) at this track. All set to bounce back to winning form.

Normally a reliable jumper but has had issues at his past couple of runs, most recently when he fell in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ludlow. Won't find this easy.

Impressed when successful when resuming in a hurdle (4000m) at Aintree two back then finished fourth more recently in a hurdle (4900m) at Haydock Park, beaten 6 lengths. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.

Been close at both his two starts in this time, the latest when third in a hurdle (4800m) at this track. Has to be included on recent runs.

Was unplaced the start before last when resuming in a hurdle (4300m) at Wincanton. Bounced back last time when she scored in a hurdle (4700m) at Chepstow. Looking elsewhere this time.

Scored in a hurdle (4700m) at Uttoxeter two starts ago then did a fair job last time, beaten 1.3 lengths into fourth in a hurdle (4800m) at this track. Likely to make amends for a last-start miss.
