Tommy's Oscar (G)
[P]
Readily ended a losing run in small-field veterans handicap chase at Carlisle (3m) 38 days ago. Up 5 lb now and this is much tougher.

Outlaw Peter (G)
[TP]
Back to winning ways in first-time cheekpieces in 17-runner handicap chase over C&D 11 days ago. Up 6 lb but jumped really well there so can't be ruled out with headgear retained.

Jour D'Evasion (G)
[T]
Winning hurdler who has made up into an even better chaser this season, defying a further 10 lb rise when bringing up the hat-trick at Warwick in January. Pulled up in Grand Annual at the Cheltenham Festival last time but he's the sort to …

Riskintheground (G)
[T]
Took this 12 months ago (when at Cheltenham) and he caught the eye when in mid-field in the Plate at the Cheltenham Festival last month, hampered last but still faring best of those held up. Interesting off a reduced mark for yard firmly a…

Zurich (G)
Progressive sort who bagged a pair of handicap chases at Killarney and Cheltenham in October. Returned from a break with a very good fifth of 23 in the Plate at the Cheltenham Festival last time. That form is working out well so this Irish…

Fugitif (G)
[TV]
December Gold Cup winner at Cheltenham in 2023. Winless since but his mark has dropped significantly and back in good form of late, running well (in first-time visor) when unseated rider 3 out over C&D 11 days ago. Visor retained.

The Bluesman (G)
FAV
[T]
Much improved over fences this season for his current yard, readily going in over C&D in February before a good seventh of 18 in Jack Richards at the Cheltenham Festival when set a lot to do. Capable of better still.

Triple Trade (G)
Winner of 2 of his first 3 starts of this season prior to finishing a good third in a valuable Cheltenham handicap in January. Unseated rider first over C&D last time.

Moon D'orange (G)
[V]
Twelve runs since his last win in 2025 but he excelled himself in a first-time visor when third of 23 in the Plate at the Cheltenham Festival last time. In the mix if the headgear works the oracle again.
