Made a winning return from a 162-day layoff last time out in a steeplechase (3900m) at Wetherby partnered by today's rider Peter Kavanagh. That run was the first for the Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith yard.

Went for a short spell after pulled up in a steeplechase (4070m) at Musselburgh three months ago. Has a solid record when resuming. Among the better chances.

Couldn't find the top three two back in a steeplechase (3800m) at Catterick then again missed out in a steeplechase (3900m) at Wetherby last time. Cannot be left out in this more suitable contest.

Was unplaced two back in a steeplechase (3300m) at Ayr then again missed out in a steeplechase (3280m) at Newcastle last time. Right in the mix if anywhere near his best.

Good effort when second in a steeplechase (3280m) at Newcastle last start on February 13. Ratings give him a strong chance in this event on that latest performance. One of the main contenders.

Clocked-in third two runs back in a steeplechase (3140m) at Catterick. Repeated the dose more recently when second in a steeplechase (4100m) at Musselburgh, beaten a neck. Ready to find peak form.

Was unplaced two back in a steeplechase (4200m) at Carlisle then again missed out in a steeplechase (4100m) at Musselburgh last time. Certainly worth including.

Finished second but no match for the winner last time out in a hurdle (4100m) at Ayr. Can get the job done this time.

Fluctuating luck of late. Two runs back found a couple better in a steeplechase (3850m) at Catterick. Things fell apart most recently when he was eased out of the race in a steeplechase (3800m) at Catterick. Looking elsewhere.

Unplaced two starts ago in a hurdle (4300m) at Ayr then improved last time when he finished fifth in a hurdle (4000m) at Musselburgh, beaten 8 lengths. Certainly worth including.

Returned from a spell in a hurdle (3900m) at Carlisle but failed to finish. Isn’t among the top hopes.

Back from a 66-day break. Finished off last campaign when fourth in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ayr, beaten 14 lengths. Leading contender and should feature.

Finished fourth two runs back in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ayr then she did not finish the race in a steeplechase (4800m) at Bangor-On-Dee last start. Must be given another chance.

Was unplaced two back in a steeplechase (4800m) at Warwick. Found the frame last start in a much better performance in a steeplechase (5900m) at Bangor-On-Dee, beaten 10 lengths. On his best jumping form is sure to prove hard to beat.

Comes here off a last start win by a neck in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ayr. Unbeaten here so should be in the finish again.

Was pulled up in a steeplechase over 6000m at Newcastle at the last run before a break. Faces a tough task.

Finished sixth the start before last in a steeplechase (5200m) at Kelso then could only manage 11th most recently in a steeplechase (4910m) at Carlisle. Hard to fault on his best jumps form.

Was unplaced two back in a steeplechase (5260m) at Sedgefield. Filled a minor prize last start in a much better performance in a steeplechase (5200m) at Doncaster, beaten 6 lengths. On his best jumping form is sure to prove hard to beat.

Finished fifth in a hurdle (4800m) at Musselburgh when resuming. Henry Brooke was aboard that day and keeps the ride. Will appreciate the big weight drop. Rates one of the contenders again.

Failed to finish at the last two runs of last campaign, the most recent when he pulled up over 4700m at Newcastle. Looks up against it here and prefer others.

Ran in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ayr last time out but failed to finish. Worth another chance and is worth consideration.
