Did well to finish second when resuming two back in a maiden hurdle (3200m) at Warwick. Improved to register a win in a maiden hurdle (3200m) at Uttoxeter 27 days ago, arriving 0.8 lengths ahead of his rivals.

Won when resuming two back in a maiden hurdle (3500m) at Fontwell Park then had an off-day last time when he finished fifth in a hurdle (4100m) at Newbury, beaten 24 lengths. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.

Has returned in great order this preparation. Placed when resuming in a bumper (3200m) at Worcester then won last start by 1.5 lengths in a maiden hurdle (4000m) at Ffos Las most recently. Set to continue the fine recent form.

Three-start maiden who was sent out at long odds last start, finishing ninth in a hurdle (3300m) at Exeter. Isn’t among the top hopes today.

Only had the one start on the flat last campaign before debut jumps race at Fontwell Park last start when fourth. Meets a tough line-up and place prospects appear best.

Resumed and opened his jumping career last time out but did not finish the race in a maiden hurdle (4000m) at Fakenham. Won't find this easy.

Resuming after having just one career start. Kicked off career in a maiden hurdle at Fontwell Park back in October 26, and was safely held when tenth and beaten 63 lengths. Will be better for the run but prefer to see again.

Has shown minimal form in recent runs, the latest in a hurdle (3300m) at Exeter. Looks safely held on recent form.

Returned from a layoff last time out in a hurdle (4100m) at Leicester, finishing fourth when partnered by today's jockey Charlie Deutsch. That run was the first for the Miss Venetia Williams yard. Needs to find a bit more to feature.

Tackles the jumps for the first time. Hasn't raced since finishing fourth over 2000m at Chelmsford on September 18. Has switched to the D Steele yard since the last outing. Looks tested this line-up.
