Finished fifth two back in a hurdle (3200m) at Wetherby then again missed out in a hurdle (3390m) at Newcastle last time. Likely to figure on his best figures.

Failed to complete the course two starts back. Finished sixth last time, beaten 9 lengths, in a hurdle (4000m) at Musselburgh. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.

Disappointed when resuming last start in a 3390m hurdle at Newcastle, finishing ninth and beaten 31 lengths. First up effort suggests unlikely to be winning.

Unplaced two starts ago in a flat race at Newcastle All Weather then improved last start when he finished fifth in a steeplechase (3500m) at Bangor-On-Dee, beaten 29 lengths. In the mix.

Struggling to recapture her best form, the latest effort a disappointing fifth, beaten 30 lengths, in a hurdle (3990m) at Sedgefield. Nicely placed and cannot be underestimated.

Unwanted at long odds in last couple and has run accordingly. Overlooking on recent form.

Returned from a spell in a hurdle (4100m) at Newcastle but failed to finish. Not expected to threaten.

Winner two back in a hurdle but couldn't go on with it last start when ninth in a Newcastle hurdle. Not likely to threaten without a big turnaround in form.

Returned from a 189- day spell last start and came down in a hurdle (3800m) at Warwick. Fitter and can make amends.

Did well to finish second two back in a hurdle (3200m) at Ayr but could only manage 11th in a hurdle (3390m) at Newcastle last time, arriving 33 lengths behind the winner. Hard to fault on his best jumps form.

Made a mistake and fell when last seen five months ago. Has shown some ability over the jumps. May run into a place with a bit of luck.

Comfortably held so far this campaign, the latest finishing a 32 length ninth hurdle. On the quick back up here. Prepared to risk here fresh.

Has been very ordinary in all six career runs to date. Prefer in easier.

Five-year-old gelding who has been thereabouts at the finish at each of his career runs to date. Key chance who can open winning account with the right run.

Couldn't find the top three two back in the G2 Rossington Main Novices' Hurdle (3140m) at Haydock Park then again missed out in a maiden hurdle (4060m) at Newcastle last time. Can improve in this more suitable contest.

Doesn't look likely in this after being well held at long odds in last two. Not likely on recent form.

Returns from a spell of 11 months. Made just the one appearance last campaign and finished in the minors in a point to point (4800m) at Necarne P2p, beaten 33 lengths. Has since switched to the Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith yard.

Struggling with consistency this preparation. Weakened out of it badly to finish near last in a hurdle (3900m) at Carlisle. Dropping 660m in trip. Others look better placed.

Missed the frame the start before last in a hurdle (4400m) at Navan then wound up in fifth most recently in a hurdle (4100m) at Ayr. Only needs to jump well to be right in the finish.

Two runs this prep have been moderate. Kicked off with an unplaced effort in a bumper (3390m) at Newcastle All Weather then weighed-in sixth last time in a hurdle (3120m) at Musselburgh. Cannot be left out in this more suitable contest.

Forever Now gelding who was unfancied on debut last time out and finished seventh in a bumper (3200m) at Wetherby. Prepared to risk.
