A useful handicapper over hurdles, HORN CAPE's only previous start over fences came back in 2023 so he could yet do better in this sphere. Off 5 lb lower than his hurdles mark, he is preferred to Disco Annie who could yet build on the promise of her chasing debut with the hood reapplied, while Klitschko is one to note making his first chase start.

    Verdict
    Disappointing on only start over fences so far, though he's a 6-time winner over hurdles and ran well when third at Newcastle in February. Let down by jumping when fifth of 6 at Hexham (16.2f, good) 3 weeks ago, but he's well worth another try over the bigger obstacles.

    Verdict
    A while since his last success over hurdles but placed at this course 3 times last year. Lesser efforts on his last 2 starts, fourth of 6 at Carlisle (25f, good) last month, so needs to bounce back dropped significantly in trip making a belated chasing debut.

    Verdict
    Gained a first handicap success over hurdles when scoring at Sedgefield (16.8f, good to soft) in March, form boosted by the runner-up winning next time. Not in the same form at Perth a month ago, but he's capable on a going day as he makes his chase debut.

    Verdict
    Again ran well when third at Kelso (23.4f, heavy) in December but hasn't been in the same form since, fifth of 6 at Hexham on latest outing 3 weeks ago. However, he's eased further in the weights so he's not one to write off (runner-up here last August).

    Verdict
    Dual winner over hurdles and promising second in handicap at Carlisle on chasing debut in December. After a run back hurdling, raced too freely returned to chasing when fourth of 5 at Perth (16f, good to soft) 10 days ago, so she could fare better with hood reapplied.
