Paul Marvel (G)
FAV
[P]
Fairly useful performer for Willie Mullins in 2023/24 who chased home a subsequent winner on penultimate start at Warwick and made most of good opportunity in first-time cheekpieces when readily taking 5-runner hunter here (22.7f, soft) 12…

St Cuthbert's Cave (G)
[P1]
Fairly useful chaser made winning start for these connections at Uttoxeter last September and has since been successful in both point-to-point starts. Pulled up in hunter at Ludlow (6/4 fav) 6 weeks ago but found to have bled. Claims if he…

Corporal Jackjones (G)
[P]
Dual bumper winner who went winless over hurdles. Let down by his jumping on hunter chase bow at Ludlow last spring but he lines up here fit from pair of victories between the flags in recent months and surprise were he not capable of bett…

Just Lucky Sivola (G)
[T1]
Lightly-raced 7-y-o who was successful in both bumpers and over hurdles for Paul Nicholls in 2024. However, missed whole of last year and went as if amiss on yard/chase debut when pulled up 4 out in hunter here won by Paul Marvel 12 days a…

Prohus Yank (G)
Didn't show much in a handful of points last winter but in process of running a cracker on first Rules start for present yard when unseating last in hunter at Ludlow (23.8f) 3 weeks ago, likely he'd have split a fairly useful pair. Now his…

Walk Easy (G)
[H1T1]
Walk In The Park gelding who got off the mark in points this time last year. Pulled up both subsequent outings in that sphere however, including on reappearance in December. Percentage call is to look elsewhere on this Rules debut.
