Comment: Has won four of his last eight handicap chases; held in third over C&D (good) last month but that was behind an improver in a 0-120 and he still looks feasibly treated on his Chepstow win in April; respected.

Comment: Dual hurdle winner at around 2m (good/good to firm) last summer; mixed record in six hurdle runs this year but he went close in a valuable series final at Haydock (1m7f) in April; looks interesting on that form and he should have a future at this new discipline.

Comment: Low-mileage 7yo who was runner-up in a Haydock handicap (2m4f, good) in April but he jumped right on occasions when a well-held third at Warwick last month; still unexposed over fences and this drop back in trip should be fine but he needs to step up again after that last run; cheekpieces added.

Comment: 3m1f hurdle winner for Dan Skelton in 2023; struggled in first four runs for current yard but he's shown some positive signs here (2m4f/3m) in last two starts; made a bold bid when runner-up last time but a 3lb rise makes things tougher and this is a big drop back in trip.

Comment: Well-beaten favourite in a Cartmel maiden hunter chase last month (2m5f) but it is no certainty that's his preferred track type considering his point win in March (form franked repeatedly) came around Charm Park's fairer, more galloping line; rare runner here for Ruth Jefferson.

Comment: Sixth foal; half-brother to 2m5f hurdle winner Ferocious; dam 2m4f hurdle winner, closely related to 2m3f hurdle winner Mrs Fawlty, half-sister to useful 2m-2m6f hurdle winner Leave At Dawn; yard has been firing in winners recently and he needs a close look on debut.

Shabano

Jockey: James Best Trainer: T Faulkner Age/Wt: 6/10-10 F: /48P- OR: 78

Comment: Fair on the Flat in his prime but very lightly raced in recent years and was pulled up when 100-1 for handicap hurdle debut in February; has plenty to prove after another break.

Comment: 2m5f scorer here last July (good) and raised his highest mark defied by 6lb more at Market Rasen this April; hood quickly back on after lesser follow-up bid (form nevertheless franked since); among likeliest.

Comment: No further wins since his autumn 2022 British debut and his record at trips of 2m4f+ remains mixed; RPRs in decline again since his April return and there's work for the returning cheekpieces to do.

Comment: Almost held on in a Stratford 0-110 in March (2m3f, good to soft) but the effects of the cheekpieces which were tried there already appeared on the wane next time (now discarded); may not have much in hand of her mark.

Comment: Mark over a stone in excess of that for last June's Uttoxeter win (2m4f, good) is owed to some good runs in defeat since; 142-day absence won't be an issue judged on last October's effort after similar.

10/1

Comment: Market Rasen and Ayr 2m4f wins either side of Christmas were gained on softer than good; April's hat-trick bid perhaps thwarted by any or all of the good ground, revised mark or fading powers of the headgear; bit to prove again.

Comment: 1l second at Huntingdon latest (2m5f, good) was a return to the form level of his bumper debut fourth here; chance, though he has a stiff initial mark and an even longer trip may have suited; cheekpieces added.
