'Unexposed over fences; considered back up in trip with cheekpieces now added.'

'Unexposed as a stayer and likely to give another good account.'

'Creditable third when favourite on chase debut last time; this longer trip could suit.'

'Sound efforts on last five starts; nudged up another 2lb but hard to rule out.'

'Not the force of old and doesn't look like capitalising off a sliding mark any time soon.'

'Will find this easier than some of the handicaps he contested last season; considered.'

'1-3 over fences and weighted to reverse the Bangor placings with Almazar Garde; player.'

'Needs to bounce back from a rare poor effort last time; changes headgear.'

'Running respectably over hurdles; on a good mark for this return to fences.'

'In cracking form this summer; up another 3lb but has to enter calculations'
