American Mike (G)
FAV
[T]
Smart Grade 2-winning chaser at his best for Gordon Elliott and, though yet to show the same level for current connections, his 1¾ lengths second to Kent de Thaix in a handicap hurdle at Wetherby last time was clearly a step back in the ri…

Minella Drama (G)
[T]
Although smart at his peak, he has become hard to predict of late. His second to the long odds-on Protektorat in a 4-runner listed race at Kelso in February was a solid effort in the context of this race, but poor effort at Haydock last ti…

Statuario (G)
All 6 chase wins have come in small fields at this track, most recently in September. Not at that level in 2 starts since but not disgraced in a cross-country event at Cheltenham when last seen in December and now back on his last winning …

Della Casa Lunga (M)
[PT]
Although she has yet to cut much ice in 2 runs over fences, she was a useful and successful 3m hurdler and now looks well treated on that form entering handicap company in this sphere. The return of cheekpieces, in which she has done most …

If Not For Dylan (G)
[T]
C&D winner who has won and been placed in the Highland National at this meeting in the last 2 seasons, and showed plenty of ability remains with a bold front-running success at Doncaster in February. Caught out by a rare jumping lapse last…

Mountain Mike (G)
A Ffos Las novice hurdle winner on heavy ground last season, he matched that level of form when 5 lengths second of 4 to Bective Abbey in a novice chase at Hereford in March. He fell early at Sedgefield last time, but remains unexposed and…

Ned Tanner (G)
[PT]
Twice a winner last season but largely well below par this term and likely to find this too competitive. Races from 3 lb out of the handicap.
