Our Power (G)
[P]
Lightly raced since landing brace of 3m handicaps in 2022/23 campaign but hard to knock his consistency last term, placed on all 4 starts. Rare jumping lapse over the National fences on reappearance and just a respectable sixth of 12 at As…

Iron Bridge (G)
[P1]
Useful handicapper but winless since 2022. Near miss on Carlisle reappearance in November shows he retains his ability and given time to get over that. Needs considering with cheekpieces applied.

Destroytheevidence (G)
[V1]
Hasn't added to last season's Chepstow chase debut success in 7 subsequent starts in this sphere but placed on several occasions, including when runner-up at Ludlow (23.8f, soft) last time. Now tried in a visor and promises to be suited by…

Isaac Des Obeaux (G)

[P]
Got back on track after a wind op when third of 5 in listed chase at Cheltenham (25f, heavy, 16/1) on return and capitalised on the drop in class when winning at Exeter off reduced mark 4 weeks ago by 5 lengths from Operation Manna. Should…

Rapper (G)
[P]
Veteran three-time winner over fences who didn't go with any promise on the back of a 12-month layoff when pulled up at Ascot. Showed a bit more at Ludlow since but that form not the most robust. Others preferred.

Operation Manna (G)
A three-time hurdles winner in 2023 but very lightly raced since. Showed he retains all of his ability when second to Isaac Des Obeauxat Exeter on chase bow 4 weeks ago after 13 months off and player if this doesn't come too soon.

Rivers Corner (G)

Improved in first-time blinkers when winning at Newbury in March. Consistent in defeat since and likely to be on the premises once more. Tongue strap on 1st time.
