Returns from a break under the care of a new trainer. One of the primary contenders.

Easily accounted for last start in a maiden hurdle (3400m) at Newcastle finishing fifth and beaten 30 lengths. Strong run latest and can measure up this time.

Finished seventh two runs ago in a steeplechase (4000m) at Newcastle then wound up in fourth most recently in a steeplechase (4700m) at Newcastle. Right in the mix if anywhere near his best.

Has a poor strike rate and hasn't won a race in more than a year. Last seen when fifth at Catterick in a steeplechase (3100m) at Catterick before a break of four months. Will need plenty of improvement to break through.

Was unplaced two back in a maiden hurdle (3200m) at Huntingdon. Filled a minor prize last time in a much better performance in a hurdle (4100m) at Huntingdon, beaten 14 lengths. Certainly worth another chance in this suitable contest.

Six-year-old gelding whose recent form has been below par. Long time since a win and happy to watch again here.

Unplaced two starts back in a maiden hurdle (3300m) at Bangor-On-Dee then improved last time when she finished fourth in a hurdle (3400m) at this track, beaten 12 lengths. Hard to fault on her best jumps form.

Wasn't popular in betting but returned from a 147-day spell on March 8 with a sound second in a hurdle (3400m) at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Key runner who is expected to feature again.

Was at long odds last time in a hurdle (3200m) at Ayr but failed to finish. Hard to recommend this time.

Did not finish the race two starts back. Finished 11th last time, beaten 72 lengths, in a hurdle (3200m) at Ludlow. Looking elsewhere.
