'Won here over hurdles and his third on chase debut at Carlisle was encouraging'

'Has won his last two chases and returns from a break with his yard in form'

'Never jumped or travelled before pulling up on Wincanton reappearance'

'Stopped quickly at Bangor but returns to the scene of all his best form over fences'

'3m3f winner so can be easily forgiven his no-show over 2m4f at Bangor last time'

'Has the form to feature if fit after his absence; had wind op and tongue-tie added'

'It's been a solid start over fences and couldn't put a line through him'

'Improving 3m chaser earlier this year and valid excuses for latest defeat here'
