A fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles who has shaped with promise on both runs in this sphere, fourth of 11 in handicap chase at Bangor (20.3f, good to soft) 24 days ago when fading late on after 5 months off. Cheekpieces go back on here. Big shout.

Bagged 3m handicap hurdles at Ludlow and Ffos Las last term before signing off with a very good fourth of 12 in 3m2f Perth handicap in April. Well held at Ffos Las (2m3f) on her chasing debut in 2023 but still enters calculations.

Still a maiden but she proved consistent over hurdles and fences for Warren Greatrex. Has gone well fresh too so is very much one to consider now starting out for Olly Murphy.

A fair maiden hurdler who posted a solid fourth of 14 in handicap at Newbury (24.2f) in March. Returns for her chasing bow and can't be discounted.

A fair 2m4f winner over hurdles. Runner-up in 2m Fakenham handicap on her chase debut in October and had a stiff task when last of 5 in Rising Stars Novices' Chase at Wincanton (20.2f, good) 12 days ago. Needs considering in these calmer waters.

Timeform Verdict

None of these can be ruled out but the vote goes to SUNDAY SOLDIER who shaped with promise returned to fences when a recent fourth at Bangor and can build on it here to thwart Olly Murphy's new recruit Largy Force. Recent Fakenham scorer Fancy Stuff, along with chsing newcomers Geturguccion and Either Or also need factoring in.

Betting Forecast

4/1 Fancy Stuff (Ire), 5/1 Sunday Soldier (Ire), 12/1 Felicie Du Maquis (Fr), 9/1 Either Or (Ire), 5/1 Largy Force (Ire), 9/1 Geturguccion (Ire), 12/1 Kalista Love (Fr), 7/1 Settle Down Jill (Ire)
