Flat winner in 2019 and opened hurdles account at Ayr in October. Placed in mares' handicap hurdle and jumpers bumper at Newcastle since and likely to be in the shake-up once again.

Won 3 on the bounce in 2017, but it's been a struggle since and he's essentially opposable, for all that the handicapper has shown mercy.

More miss than hit since landing a mares' handicap at Hexham early last season, and she was beaten a country mile on the Flat 18 days ago.

Well held in maiden/novice hurdles at up to 3m late last year, and this dual point winner needs to take a sizeable step forward now pitched into a handicap.

Bumper winner on debut back in November 2017. Latest fifth in a big-field Wetherby handicap hurdle was certainly one of his better efforts in this sphere, and claims here if able to build on that.

Fair maiden on Flat for John M. Oxx, but has shown little in 3 starts over hurdles. Another who will need to improve now making the switch to handicap company.

No worthwhile form under Rules to his name, and it's best to look elsewhere.

GOLAN CLOUD was given a break prior to landing this race last year and, on the back of a similar period of absence this time round, he is taken to repeat the dose. He wasn't beaten far despite the combination of the 23.3f trip and heavy going amounting to too stiff a test at Hexham when last seen in December. Emissaire has claims judged on his latest effort and Joie de Vivre merits respect, too.
