Walkinthewoods (G)
Dual hurdles winner who got off the mark over fences at Plumpton last spring, albeit in a weak 3-runner affair. Sharper for a comeback run when second in handicap hurdle at Ludlow but she was well held in this sphere at Wincanton 19 days a…

Boston Joe (G)
Won a pair of handicaps over 2m here in 2024 and creditable placed efforts back at this venue (over hurdles and fences) during the autumn. Disappointing when pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow last time but he needs considering ret…

Benignitas (M)
Point winner in January 2023 and showed ability in 2 starts switched to hurdles at Chepstow last season. Shaped well when chasing home a strong stayer on first go over fences over this C&D (heavy) at the end of January but she ran no sort …

Finally off the mark when scoring at Market Rasen in January and went on to complete a quick-fire hat-trick during the next couple of weeks. Lost no caste in defeat when just touched off back here (2m, heavy) last time and shapes as though…

Henry Box Brown (G)
Posted several good placed efforts at Worcester last year and by no means disgraced when third at Chepstow in November. However, latest display at Southwell wasn't one of his better ones and this 9-y-o looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Port Or Starboard (G)
[P]
Just the one win from 24 starts over hurdles but took surprisingly well to chasing when runner-up on debut in this sphere at Bangor (17.4f, soft) last month. 2 lb nudge fair enough and will be a danger to all if able to build on that.

Ferando (G)

Pulled up sole outing for Nicky Henderson and fared little better in 3 starts for Alison Thorpe, well held when falling at the last fence on final run for that yard/chase debut at Sedgefield in September. Readily passed over on first start…
