Tomorrow, ChaseClass 52m7f

If CRESTHILL is over Friday's Sedgefield exertions he might prove the answer to this staying handicap. Market confidence behind returning chase newcomer Fiveafterfour would make her a potential big threat. Her stablemate Reflection of You is also likely to be on the premises if her jumping holds up. Wearelongterm is another likely to have a say.

    Verdict
    Front runner who was successful over hurdles at Kelso (21f) in May. Presumably needed a recent comeback outing at Sedgefield. Below par both previous chase starts but too soon to suggest he won't make the grade over fences.

    Verdict
    Handicap hurdle winner off this mark in February 2024. Has a 20-month absence to overcome but should take to chasing as a former point winner and she'd enter the reckoning if the betting suggests she's ready to roll. Has had wind surgery.

    Verdict
    Point/hurdles winner who has hit the crossbar twice in this sphere, including on final run for James Ewart at Hexham (23f, good) in May. However, he's yet to offer much in 5 starts for current yard. The refitting of cheekpieces needs to spark a revival.
