Took well to fences with 2 novice handicap wins in summer 2023 and showed he's still very talented when scoring easily in a Ffos Las hunter back from a long absence 12 days ago. Hard to beat again.

Fair winning chaser for Anthony Honeyball but pulled up in a point on his recent return for new connections. Can only watch after that

Won a Southwell hunter last March and creditable third in similar races later in the spring. This is his first outing in nearly 10 months so he's entitled to be sharper for the run.

Fairly useful chaser in his pomp and won 3 points in 2023. Second in a Larkhill point on return this January but unseated at the first in the Ffos Las hunter won by Shearer 12 days ago. A first-time visor replaces blinkers now.

Badly out of sorts under Rules for Venetia Williams last spring but a couple of placed efforts in points this winter suggest he retains ability.

Modest chaser under Rules for Martin Keighley. Third in a point last month but looks up against it on hunter debut.

Has reached the frame on 4 of 5 hunter starts for this yard but likely vulnerable for win purposes again.

It's hard to see past SHEARER, who had plenty to spare on his recent Ffos Las hunter debut. If there is to be a threat it'll likely come from Acey Milan, who unseated early in that Ffos Las race but prior to that returned from a lay-off with a near miss in a Larkhill point.
