Comment: 12yo who won at Sedgefield (2m5f, soft) in November on his second start for this yard and bumped into a well-handicapped winner when runner-up at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) next time; below par at Doncaster subsequently but this C&D winner could bounce back with a good run now back down in grade.

Comment: 0-13 over fences but he ran well more often than not last year, and when a below-par fourth of five at Haydock three weeks ago he was taking on younger, progressive rivals; in with a chance in his first veterans' chase.

Comment: Having dropped to this career-low mark he was sent off the 3-1 favourite when back over fences at Market Rasen last Friday; however, he was reluctant to race and pulled up before the first fence; unseated rider at the start in October so comes with risk attached.

Comment: Beaten on his last ten starts going back to June 2024 and this is his first run since October; however, he goes well fresh and runs off the same mark as when runner-up at Worcester (2m7f, good) in July; also effective on soft ground; could be thereabouts.

Comment: Has struggled in the main since winning off this mark at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) in March 2024; however, he was 4l behind a highly progressive winner when falling at the final fence at Wetherby (3m, soft) in November and could play a leading role today if backing up that run; has run well here.

Comment: In-form hurdler who is 2-4 in headgear since October, wins over about this trip at Huntingdon and Southwell (visored) followed by a keeping-on second of 14 in first-time blinkers at Exeter (about 2m2f, soft) last month; 1lb nudge won't stop him being a leading contender.

Comment: Likeable gelding who can normally be relied on to give it a good go, as he did when narrowly failing to get back up under Murray Dodd at Taunton (2m3f, good) three weeks ago; won't be easy to dominate this big field but he still commands plenty of respect.

Comment: Improved upon previous hurdle form to get off the mark at the 11th attempt in this code at Windsor (2m, good) on New Year's Day; did it readily and there remains mileage in his mark (now 9lb higher) judged on his Flat ability; has shown hints of promise on soft/good to soft ground.
