Toss Of A Coin (G)
[P]
Dual hurdle winner for Paul Nicholls and better than ever making a winning start for this yard in 3m Chepstow handicap chase 5 weeks ago. Should remain very competitive off 5 lb higher.

First Confession (G)
Successful on 2 of his 5 starts over hurdles last term and this point winner and bettered that form when returning to finish third in a pair of handicap chases in November. Not so good when a well-held fifth at Cheltenham latest but this l…

Laganhill (G)
Pretty useful dual novice hurdler last season and made a positive start to his chase career in November, pulling clear of the rest when second of 8 at Bangor (3m, heavy) latterly. Open to further progress.

El Granjero (G)
FAV
[P]
Won sole start in Irish points and has proved a likeably reliable performer under Rules, including 2 Hereford hurdle wins in spring 2024. Just second chase start when 5 lengths fourth of 6 in 25f Aintree handicap on reappearance. Entitled …

Saint Anapolino (G)
A three-time winner over hurdles last season. Recorded a couple of respectable in-frame efforts switched to fences last month (19f here first occasion) but will need more to go close here.

Silver Thorn (G)
FAV
Fairly useful winner over hurdles and left his chase debut behind when scoring in 6-runner handicap at Doncaster (3mf, soft) 28 days ago, looking the likely winner when left clear last.

Wicked Thoughts (G)
[P]
Point/Bumper/hurdle winner who made a winning chase debut at Taunton (23f) on return in November, his sound jumping sealing the race at the last. Likely he has more to offer for his top stable.

Tommy The Tank (G)
Point/maiden hurdle winner but made an inauspicious start to his chase career on Sandown reappearance last month, struggling a long way out. Can only watch after that.
