'Was well held in this two years ago but there's nothing wrong with his mark'

'Previous winner of this but struggles continued on his Warwick reappearance'

'A winner over 3m2f so she stays and until last time had been running well this year'

'Respectable effort at Punchestown in May and this is his type of race; possibilities'

'Previous winner of this and ran a positive race at Chepstow two weeks back when beaten 12l'

'Consistent 7yo and, other than this rise in class, has a lot in his favour'

'Had a great summer but now looks vulnerable to better-treated opposition'

'This is deeper than the Warwick 3m1f handicap in which he found one too good a month ago'

'Mostly unconvincing since two good runs here early last season, including in this race'

'Won this last year but will do well to repeat the trick off a 10lb higher mark'

'Irish raider who is only a 6yo and 3-6 over fences; excellent jockey booking'

'All wins on good ground so his recent third on soft at Stratford was passable'

'Course winner; can improve some more and the booking of Derek O'Connor bodes well'

'Quiet last season and remains risky business despite his reduced mark'

'Signed off for former yard on a downer and has more to prove than many in here'

'Lost his way for Paul Nicholls but on winning hurdle mark and new stable much respected'
