This is wide open so at the likely odds it is worth siding with course winner MEATLOAF, who has slipped to an attractive mark and looks primed for a bold showing after his encouraging sixth here last time out. Resurgent Kempton second King Of The Road rates a big threat though and Dan Skelton's handicap debutant Choice Runner also has plenty to recommend him. Le Soleil Reve and Lucky Bere can't be discounted either.

    Successful over 19f at Taunton last November and got right back on track in first-time cheekpieces when second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, good) 20 days ago. Up 4 lb but can go well with headgear again fitted.

    Verdict
    Course winner in 2023/24. Lightly raced since but posted an encouraging sixth of 10 over 15f here last month. Now steps back up in trip with Freddie Keighley again taking 7 lb off. Weighted to go close.

    Scored at Hereford (2m) in March and has progressed in a couple of outings this term, latest when second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, soft) in November. Should have more to offer.

    Verdict
    Lightly-raced maiden who has gone with promise on both runs this term on the back of beathing surgery, fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Leicester (20.5f, heavy) 42 days ago. Goes into handicaps with more to offer. Not without interest.

    Won a novice hurdle at Uttoxeter in summer 2024. Struggled on next 3 starts but back with a bang when winning 2m Doncaster handicap just after Christmas. Still low mileage so possible he can build on that.

    Verdict
    Successful in juvenile hurdles at Kempton/Taunton late in 2024. Too free in a first-time visor at Cheltenham (16.8f) last month and will need to settle much better if he's to get home back up in trip.
