Finished last season on a high with a stylish victory at Yarmouth in September. As a 4-year-old by Sea The Stars, he is physically designed to be even better this year. While he’s returning from a 207-day break, that shouldn't be a worry. Last season, he was only beaten by a neck on his seasonal reappearance. Looks the type to progress this season.

Running off a career-low handicap mark of 100. For a horse that was once rated 118 and competed in much better races, this makes him technically well-handicapped if he can find any of his old spark. He is a strong stayer who has won over 3 miles before. Ffos Las is a galloping track that should suit.

Has been highly tried recently, including a run in the Grade 2 Desert Orchid Chase where he was completely outclassed. Returning to a Class 5 handicap today represents a much more realistic level for him. He finished 5th at Newcastle last month after an 11-week break. It's reasonable to expect him to step forward significantly with that run under his belt. Previous CD winner.

Finished an excellent 3rd in this last year. He was only beaten by three lengths and was staying on strongly at the finish despite making a significant mistake at the final fence. Without that blunder, he may have won. He is one of the few horses in the field with banker stamina. Having already completed the 4m 2f distance at Aintree, there are no questions about whether he will last the trip. He comes into this following a dominant win in the Bobbyjo Chase at Fairyhouse in February, where he beat the high-class Gerri Colombe. The Bobbyjo is historically one of the most reliable trials for the Grand National.

The Skelton yard won this exact race last year. Dan Skelton is a master at targeting these specific Aintree handicaps with unexposed horses, and Harry Lowes fits that mold perfectly. Comes here off the back of a dominant win at Bangor-on-Dee in February. He is 2-for-2 over the two-mile distance and his mark of 124 could well prove to be very lenient.

Was a huge eye-catcher in the Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle (Fred Winter) at Cheltenham last month. He finished 4th of 22, staying on powerfully after being hampered and short of room at a crucial stage before the last. He definitely would have finished closer with a clearer run. Looks like he has significantly more to offer than his current mark of 129 suggests.

Was a narrowly beaten second of 19 at Down Royal last month, beaten only by 3/4 of a length. The horse that beat him, Pat's Legacy, has since run well again. This strongly suggests the form is top-tier for this grade. He has been raised only 3 lb for that near miss, and a reproduction of that effort should see him bang there.

Finished 6th in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham last month. That race suggests he didn't take to the hill, with the final grueling climb at Cheltenham stretching him. Aintree is a much flatter, sharper track, which should play much better to his high cruising speed. He won a very competitive Grade 2 at Cheltenham’s Trials Day in January, beating some highly regarded novices. He has proven he belongs at this level when conditions suit and could run well at a price.

Finished an excellent 3rd at the Cheltenham Festival last month. He was the only horse to make significant ground from the rear in a race where the leaders didn’t stop, marking him as a horse with a huge engine. While he has been running primarily over 2.5 miles, his breeding and running style suggest that this step up to 3 miles will be the making of him. He stayed on powerfully at Cheltenham, and the flat track at Aintree is perfect for a horse with his finishing kick.

Mariner returned from a 263-day break last month at Wolverhampton. He finished 8th, but he wasn't beaten by much (about five lengths) and looked like he needed the outing to blow away the cobwebs. He should be significantly sharper today. The handicapper has been lenient. He is currently racing off a mark of 66, which is lower than the mark he held when winning last season. He returns to turf today. While he has won on the all-weather, his best recent performances ??" including a win at Ripon last May ??" came on grass.

Has excellent form at Aintree. He finished a very close second (beaten only 1.25 lengths) by Impaire Et Passe in a Grade 1 over this CD last year. Unlike many of his rivals who are coming off grueling races at the Cheltenham Festival, Gidleigh Park has been sidelined since January. He is a Grade 2 winner and has consistently performed at the Grade 1 level. The worry is he was pulled up in his last start at Ascot in January. While there were likely excuses (he's been away since), he needs to prove he’s back to his best. If he can then he's got the form to take this.

He has been very consistent this season, winning twice and finishing 3rd on three occasions. He skipped Cheltenham, so is coming here perfectly fresh. He has already beaten Regent's Stroll this season (at Cheltenham on New Year's Day, winning by four lengths). If you like Regent's Stroll's chances, you have to respect the horse that has already finished in front of him.

Bolted up over this CD in December. His second-place finish at Newbury earlier this season looks even better now, as the horses that finished around him have gone on to win races (including the William Hill Hurdle and Sussex Champion Hurdle). He skipped Cheltenham and will be fresher than most coming into this race.

Finished a very credible 3rd in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham just last month. That is strong handicap form. She stayed on powerfully up the hill that day, suggesting this slightly longer trip (2m 4f) will suit her perfectly. This flat track, compared to Cheltenham, should assist, and the cheekpieces, which seemed to sharpen her up significantly last time out, are retained.

Some horses just come alive at specific tracks, and for Sans Bruit, Aintree is that place. His record over these fences is nearly flawless, and he clearly relishes the high-tempo, flat nature of the Red Rum Chase. Despite winning this race twice before, he arrives today only 3 lb higher than his winning mark from last year, effectively giving him a massive chance to defend his title again. He is a spring horse who typically struggles in the winter mud but finds his best form once the ground dries out to good-to-soft, which are the exact conditions today.

Aside from one poor run at Exeter on heavy ground, his form this season has been solid. He is an accurate jumper who rarely makes a major mistake. Wears cheekpieces today, which seemed to help his focus when finishing a respectable 3rd over this course and distance last month. Won here over hurdles in the past.

Has already proven she can take down the best males, most notably when she defeated Lossiemouth herself (and several top-class geldings) to win the Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown in February. Today’s distance of 2 miles 4 furlongs is considered her optimum. While she was fast enough to be competitive over 2 miles at Cheltenham, she won a Grade 1 over this exact trip as a novice. The extra half-mile today is a huge advantage for her. As a mare, she receives a 7 lb allowance from her male rivals. On official ratings, this makes her very difficult to beat.

Previous CD winner. He won a Grade 1 novice hurdle at this track in late 2024. After a slightly rocky period following wind surgery in 2025, he has returned to his peak this season. He enters today on the back of two consecutive wins at Windsor and Fontwell (the latter a Grade 2 victory). Unlike many of his rivals today, who had grueling battles at the Cheltenham Festival, Potters Charm was bypassed Cheltenham and will arrive here fresh. He has won on everything from good to heavy ground and is comfortable over trips from 2 miles up to 2m 5f. He should have no issues with today’s expected conditions. Could go well at a price with 3 places widely available.

Unlike many in the field, he has been there and done it, having won this race in 2024 and finished second in it in 2023. He has finished in the top two in his last four consecutive appearances at the major spring festivals (Cheltenham and Aintree). Trained by Emmet Mullins, a master at priming horses for a specific day, he arrives here fresh from a very close second-place finish at the Cheltenham Festival just four weeks ago.

The classiest horse in the race. As a former Cheltenham Festival winner (2024 Grand Annual), he has operated at a much higher level than most of his rivals today. Since moving into hunter chases this year, he is 2-for-2, winning decisively at both Taunton and Haydock. Carries a high official rating (147) for this category. In a level-weight race like this, his natural ability gives him a significant theoretical edge over the field. Heidi Palin has a fantastic rapport with the horse, having steered him to his last two victories.

Has spent most of his season over 2 miles (including a Grade 1 win at Sandown). However, his trainer, Nicky Henderson, has long insisted he is a future Gold Cup horse. Moving up to 2 miles and 4 furlongs today is expected to bring out significant improvement. He finished a respectable 3rd in the Arkle at the Cheltenham Festival. He was outpaced by the speedsters over the minimum trip, but he stayed on strongly up the hill, signaling that this extra distance at Aintree is exactly what he needs.

Is the highest-placed finisher from the Cheltenham Triumph Hurdle in this field. He finished a gallant 2nd, outrunning several of today's rivals (including Selma de Vary and Minella Study). In that race, he travelled exceptionally well and looked like the winner jumping the last. While he was eventually outstayed by the winner on the climb to the finish, his cruising speed is top-tier for this division.
