Rock My Way (G)
FAV
[BT]
Consistent sort who chased home Haiti Couleurs in the National Hunt Chase at last season's Cheltenham Festival. Better than ever when readily bagging the Berkshire National at Ascot before shaping as if still in form in Welsh National. Wil…

Cadell (G)
[B]
Course regular who looked better than ever fitted with this headgear when making all here (23.4f) in November. Did blow hot and cold as a novice, however, so no surprise he ran poorly next time.

Transmission (G)
[V1]
Took well to fences last term, successful at Cheltenham and also a good fifth in National Hunt Chase at the Festival in March. Yet to fire this season but this represents a notable drop in class and a change of headgear may help his cause.

Grozni (G)
[TV]
Solid efforts over fences last season when sixth in Kim Muir at Cheltenham and fourth in Scottish National. Came good on third start for this yard when winning Borders National at Kelso 8 weeks ago and warrants respect.

Magna Sam (G)
[P]
Rejuvenated by fitting of cheekpieces when landing this race for a second time a year ago, recording a fourth success at this course in the process. Hasn't reproduced that in 3 subsequent starts but this has likely been the target again.

On a losing run and hasn't shown much since finishing second in this last year.

Forged Well (G)
[V]
Dual hurdles winner who was in the process of leaving a disappointing chase debut behind when falling at the last at Ayr but made amends when scoring in decisive fashion here (23.6f) 6 weeks ago. 7 lb higher in better race now, though, and…

Inis Oirr (G)
[P]
Wide-margin winner of this race in 2024 but generally best treated with caution these days (often looks disinterested).
