Tahmuras (G)
[B1]
Grade 1 hurdles winner who opened chase account at Aintree on Boxing Day 2023. Now 7 lb below that winning mark but this 9-y-o has a fair bit to prove having failed to complete on each of his last 4 starts. Hopes pinned on the first-time b…

Westerninthepark (G)
Bumper/dual-hurdles winner who made a successful start in this sphere at Stratford last season. Largely creditable efforts in defeat thereafter and he's of strong interest back down in trip here having found 3¼m too much of a test at Carli…

Gericault Roque (G)
[T]
Boasts some solid form in this sphere, not least his cracking second of 24 in the Ultima at the 2022 Cheltenham Festival. Proved that ability remains intact in 2 runs following a monster absence last term and interesting on this seasonal r…

Margaret's Legacy (G)
[H]
Positive start for Warren Greatrex last term, bagging handicaps chases at Southwell and Haydock (both at around 2½m). Good start to this campaign when runner-up at Bangor and while he wasn't in the same form next time, it would be no surpr…

Storminhome (G)
Posted several creditable efforts in defeat for Ben Pauling during 2023/24 campaign and didn't do much wrong when a close third starting out for this yard on sole run last season. However, he presumably hasn't been the easiest to train and…

Hold Up La Colmine (G)
Ended last season on a downer but put that behind him when opening chase account with a wide-margin success over 2½m here in November, despite some shoddy jumping. Decent third over hurdles since and each-way chance if finding some fluency…

Aviation (G)
[P]
Made up into a fairly useful winning hurdler last term and has shaped with promise on back of a wind op this term, second of 9 in a Newbury handicap chase (19.8f, good to soft) last time. Remains open to improvement and he's a must for the…

As The Fella Says (G)

Winning pointer who displayed fairly useful form when runner-up on his first two appearances in maiden hurdles last winter. Similarly, he has put in good shifts both starts switched to fences this season, latterlty in a Cheltenham handicap…

Impatient (G)
[T]
Looked better than ever when doubling his tally over fences with a decisive victory at Huntingdon (23.6f, soft) in the run-up to Christmas. Now 7 lb higher in a tougher race and consistency hasn't always been his forte but there's little d…

Joe Cotton (G)
[V]
Not the most straightforward of types but proved consistent last term and it's hard to pick too many holes in this season's efforts, most recently finishing second in a decent handicap here (20.2f, good) on New Year's Day. Likely to give i…

Officer Of State (G)
Dual winner over hurdles including at Fontwell on penultimate start, and he showed an aptitude for this discipline when last of 3 in minor event chase at Lingfield (2m, good) on debut over fences last month. May well build on that now that…
