An ideal starting point for the high-class PIC D'ORHY, who made a winning comeback in this last season before going on to win the Grade 1 Ascot Chase over the same distance. Dashel Drasher is capable of making a race of it in receipt of 6 lb if ready to go.

    Verdict
    Only defeat in 2022/23 campaign came at the hands of Shishkin in Ascot Chase and added another Grade 1 to his CV when landing that corresponding race in February. Disappointed in Melling Chase at Aintree final start but expected to bounce back (won this on return last season).

    Verdict
    Tough and likeable sort who's known more as a smart-staying hurdler. However, his form over fences is at least as good and he's capable of mixing it with Pic d'Orphy in receipt of 6 lb if ready to go (needed reappearance last season).

    Ended a near 2-year losing run when scoring at Kempton (24f) in January. Excuses both starts this season but has plenty to find in this grade.

    Verdict
    Dual-purpose performer who was denied the hat-trick here 3 weeks ago after wins at Perth and Market Rasen. That was off a mark of 129 so looks firmly up against it at this level.

    Verdict
    Won first 3 starts over fences last term, his best performance coming when taking Grade 1 Henry VIII Novices' Chase at Sandown (2m) in December. Lost his unbeaten chasing record with a bit of a whimper in Scilly Isles back there before no show at the Cheltenham Festival. Questions to answer now.
