Alaphilippe (G)
[PT]
Useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser for Fergal O'Brien earlier in his career. Disappointing in a hunter chase at Cheltenham for this stable last May but has won points in recent months ahead of this return to Rules.

High Game Royal (G)
[P]
Fair hurdler/chaser. Has reached the frame in a couple of hunters this spring but likely to be vulnerable for win purposes again.

Mister Coffey (G)
Long-standing maiden over fences. His second in a Cheltenham veterans handicap in November shows he's still very useful but his latest reversal in a 23f Newbury hunter underlines he's not one for maximum faith. This is easier.

What A Glance (G)
FAV
[T]
Looked very progressive when winning twice in this sphere in 2024 (including this race, run at Cheltenham). Has failed to complete in hunters at Ludlow (fell 4 out) and the Cheltenham Festival (pulled up) this year but a near miss in a poi…

Laurel Girl (M)
[B1]
Well held in a maiden hurdle on her previous start under Rules in 2022. Has won a couple of points since but has struggled in that sphere this season (pulled up 6 times before tailed-off third latest). Outsider on hunter debut.
