A few of these bring potential, not least FAT HARRY who seemed all set to go 3-3 this term until losing valuable momentum on landing two out at Haydock last time. He can quickly resume winning ways off a still lenient-looking mark at the chief expense of the improving duo Powerofjet (second choice) and Moon Phases. Joecooker and Glen Road also need factoring into this intriguing contest.

VerdictMade perfect start under Rules when winning 19.5f novice hurdle at Doncaster in 2024. Only twice raced since and looked rusty after 11 months off/wind op when seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, good) 20 days ago. More is needed now going chasing.

VerdictFairly useful winner in France and good start for this yard when winning juvenile hurdles at Fontwell and Cheltenham (dead-heated on latter occasion) last winter. Failed to meet expectations in both starts in this sphere, however, and is tried over a longer trip now.- 5. Moon PhasesJ: Derek FoxT: Lucinda Russell & Michael ScudamoreF: 0/2-42

VerdictShowed promise on both starts over hurdles at Ayr, making the frame each time. Further improvement when just denied in 17f handicap at Kelso on chase bow 58 days ago and should have more to offer in this sphere stepping up in trip. - 6.

VerdictHas taken really well to chasing this season, winning at Sedgefield/Newcastle in November. Would have completed hat-trick at Haydock last month but for crumpling on landing 2 out and weighted to make amends.

VerdictBumper/hurdles winner who posted a good third in handicap hurdle at Ayr (16.5f) in January. However, most disappointing in all 3 runs since, back chasing when pulled up in handicap at Musselburgh (20.3f, good to soft) 38 days ago. Needs a subsequent wind op to spark improvement.- 8.

VerdictFair hurdles winner last spring who had clearly learnt from his chase debut experience when getting off the mark in 6-runner handicap at Newcastle (2m) in November. Impressed with how he went through that race and not taken lightly despite a 7 lb rise. - Unnamed Favourite
