'Good C&D winner on seasonal debut and subsequent Newbury third was perfectly respectable'

'Low-mileage 7yo; won three in a row in summer/autumn, then was placed on stable debut'

'Not disgraced in Cheltenham Grade 2 last week but current ability remains tricky to gauge'

'Close second here on Boxing Day but well held since; can't be relied upon heavily'

'Won handicap debut in December (2m3f) and ran okay over 2m last month; still low mileage'

'Absent since down-the-field finish in Kelso handicap last May; not the most obvious answer'

'Good second over C&D in November but not in the same form again since'

'Dual hurdle winner last summer; good ground suits best; ran poorly on AW last week'

'Failed to build upon encouraging seasonal debut when safely held at Haydock last month'

'Lightly raced for his age but needs to bounce back from a disappointing chase debut'

'Well handicapped on form shown for Kim Bailey; makes stable debut after long absence'

'Made excellent progress in 2022-23 season but has fitness to prove after long layoff'

'Chasing has not gone to plan this season; now back over hurdles with a point to prove'

'Back on a workable mark but yet to strike form after three runs this season'

'Well handicapped on old hurdle form but absent since two below-par Flat runs in July 2023'

'Good claims if judged on last spring's form but arrives here with quite a bit to prove'

'Safely held over C&D three months ago but booking of Sean Bowen catches the eye today'
