Resumed last start and finished fifth in a 4900m steeplechase at Carlisle. Has talent and will strip fitter. Big run anticipated.

Was at long odds last time in a steeplechase (4000m) at Carlisle but failed to finish. Hard to make a decent case.

Form was good prior to a disappointing run last time in a steeplechase (4740m) at Musselburgh so went for a break. Very strong performer at this stage of the prep. Great chance on best form.

Was back in form with a win in a steeplechase (5030m) at Wincanton a week back. That came following an unplaced effort in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ffos Las two runs ago. Will prove hard to beat on current form.

Worth another try here after resuming over 4910m at Carlisle in a steeplechase but unseated the rider. Worth another chance and could sneak into the finish.

11-year-old gelding who was well held last time when seventh in a steeplechase (4900m) at Southwell. Appears tested in this line up.

Eased out of the race two starts back. Finished ninth last time, beaten 29 lengths, in a steeplechase (4910m) at Carlisle. Cannot be written off.

Returned from a spell in a steeplechase (4900m) at Southwell but failed to finish. Worth another chance and cannot be discounted lightly.

Ran in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ayr last time out but failed to finish. Worth another chance and cannot be discounted lightly.

Last start ran in a steeplechase (4800m) at Wetherby but was eased out of it. Capable enough and is worth consideration.

Was returning from a 312-day layoff last start when he was pulled up in a hurdle (4100m) at Newcastle. Needs to go up a notch.

12-year-old gelding who is back from a break. Wound up last campaign with a sixth in a steeplechase (5300m) at Sedgefield. Would need to be on best behaviour to threaten.

Worth another chance after resuming last start in a steeplechase (4700m) at Musselburgh but failed to finish. Capable type and he is likely to measure up.

Finished sixth when fresh from a spell last start in a hurdle (4060m) at Newcastle, with today's rider Conor Rabbitt aboard. Improvement in store.

Clocked-in second two runs ago in a steeplechase (5260m) at Sedgefield. Repeated the dose at the latest outing when second in a hurdle (5400m) at Sedgefield, beaten 6 lengths. Well-placed to take this out.

Form either side of a break has been pretty average, and comes into this after finishing 31 lengths off the winner when resuming in a hurdle (3390m) at Newcastle. Better for the fresh up run but looking elsewhere.

Missed the placings in a hurdle (4400m) at Newcastle two back then improved to finish third in a hurdle (4000m) at Uttoxeter last time out. Likely to play a major role.

Impossible to fault recently, stringing together two wins over the jumps. Added to the tally in a hurdle (4830m) at Wetherby last start, scoring by 2.25 lengths. Likely to continue the winning streak.

Hasn't threatened in two runs back from a spell. Beaten 25 lengths second-up in a steeplechase (4100m) at Musselburgh and Not one of the chances.

Finished a modest eighth in a hurdle (4870m) at Ayr last start. That came after he failed to complete the course two runs ago. Confidence looks to be down.

Was very good when returning from a 91-day layoff most recently, beaten 8 lengths into third in a hurdle (3950m) at Wetherby. Can feature again after that bright return.

Just missed out when beaten a nose in a hurdle (4800m) at Musselburgh as favourite last start. Top winning chance this line-up.

Pulled up at his latest appearance in a 4700m hurdle at this track then went for a break. What happened last time is not ideal so cannot entertain.

Is a eight-time placegetter in 18 career starts, but still a maiden. Finished eighth last start in a hurdle (4400m) at Newcastle. Has ability and is a top-three prospect.

Pulled up two starts back. Finished eighth last time, beaten 32 lengths, in a hurdle (5400m) at Sedgefield. Confidence may have taken a hit.

Continues to improve and looks close to a win, the latest effort a third, beaten 13 lengths, in a hurdle (3900m) at Carlisle. Hard to leave out.

Has just the one career win in 21 starts and that was over a year ago. Last start was sixth in a maiden hurdle (3900m) at Ayr and beaten 47 lengths. Not doing enough to warrant consideration.
