Moroder (G)
[B]
Dual winner of the Grimthorpe Chase at Doncaster but is hard to catch right nowadays, failing to build on promise of his previous effort when pulled up in the latest renewal of the Grimthorpe last month.

Noahsgreatrainbow (G)
Didn't manage to fulfil his bumper promise over hurdles but made a successful chasing debut in handicap at Wincanton in December. Hasn't progressed and probably not straightforward, although it remains early days for him in this sphere and…

Limetree Boy (G)
[P]
Without a win over fences but one of his better efforts when runner-up over 3m at Windsor on return on New Year's Day. However, hasn't been in the same form in 2 subsequent outings, in blinkers (cheekpieces now back on) when down the field…
