Diamond Mix (G)
Hat-trick seeking 7-y-o has built on promising early chase form, landing back-to-back handicaps at Hexham either side of a 7-month break, looking much improved on latest success in November. Clearly capable when fresh and wouldn't be a sur…

Calgary Tiger (G)
Free-going front runner who placed in better company than this last season, though seemingly hasn't been the easiest to keep sound at 11 years of age, off for a further 77 days since tailing off in a Grade 2 handicap (out of his depth) at …

Sandwiched by next-time out winners when third in Bangor novice hurdle on reappearance and jumped well in the main when narrowly denied second time up over fences at Ludlow last month. Unexposed sort can open his account.

Has clearly had his issues in recent seasons, well held fourth over 2m at Catterick last month and again likely to find this an inadequate test.

Irish point winner ran her best race under Rules when chasing home an improved stable-switcher at Catterick last time, pulling long way clear of the rest. Has to enter calculations on that form.
