'Nothing like the force old but has finished second three times in recent months'

'Won on chasing debut in April and was close third over C&D last month; must be considered'

'Soundly beaten over fences in December but well handicapped on 2022-23 hurdling form'

'Looked sure to win until tying up in closing stages at Chepstow in April; raised only 1lb'

'Won readily at Leicester in January; both runs in cheekpieces this spring were creditable'

'Multiple winner when trained in Ireland but seems to have lost his way'

'Dual C&D winner in May 2022 but generally very disappointing since'
