Comes into this race off a strong second-place finish at Wolverhampton just 15 days ago. He proved his stamina at the distance and stayed on well to the finish. He has shown clear improvement since moving to B. J. Llewellyn's and could still have more to offer. Racing off an official rating of 63, he remains competitively weighted, with him being unexposed over the trip.

Comes into this with a mixed recent record (215-67). Her last run was a 7th-place finish at Doncaster 18 days ago over 1m 2f. Unlike some of her main rivals (such as Wondrous Light and Catton Lady), Fire Eyes has already had two runs this season. This match fitness could be the deciding factor against horses coming off long winter breaks. Her best recent form has been at around a mile.

His trainer, Nicky Richards, has a fantastic strike rate at Haydock, and the yard are flying currently. This is his second start in a handicap, having made a winning handicap debut at Newcastle 15 days ago. Up 3 lb for that. Danny McMenamin is in the saddle, and he's riding as well as he's ever done these days.

Won over this course and distance just six weeks ago. He didn't just win; he drew clear to score by six lengths, looking like he had plenty more left in the tank. A large, scopey 6-year-old who relishes a marathon test of stamina. While he has been raised 6 lb in the weights for his last win, the trainers (Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero) have shrewdly booked Toby McCain-Mitchell, a talented 5 lb claimer. This effectively cancels out nearly all of his weight penalty. Unlike many of his older rivals, Ki Woo is still unexposed over these extreme distances. He seems to have found his niche as a staying chaser.

After a massive 685-day break due to injury, he returned in February at Doncaster and won impressively, defying a two-year absence to win a handicap. He was sent off as the favourite at Newbury just 46 days ago but was pulled up. He never travelled well and looked a shadow of the horse we saw at Doncaster. The most important detail for today is that he has since undergone wind surgery. If his poor run at Newbury was caused by a breathing issue, this procedure could unlock him and see him return to form, considering at Doncaster he beat last week's Grade 1 winner Storming George. He could be on a very handy mark.

Won this race in 2025 off a mark of 137 at Cheltenham and runs today off 136. Dan Skelton keeps on churning out the winners. His recent runs at Cheltenham and Kempton, despite looking messy on paper (finishing 11th and 9th), were in big fields. Hampered in the Plate at the Cheltenham Festival when staying on late.

Has run well at Newmarket before. Last September he finished a very respectable 3rd of 13 runners over 7 furlongs. Returning to this track is a big plus. Like many in this field, he’s coming off a break (171 days). However, he was gelded during the winter, which should help him focus and can lead to a significant step up in performance on his seasonal reappearance. He's a multiple winner in Class 2 and Class 3 company and has the speed for this 6-furlong trip, especially on the ground expected today.

He has already secured two hurdle wins this season (at Fontwell and Ffos Las). He ran here recently (February), finishing 4th in a Grade 2 event. While he was beaten that day, it was over a longer 3-mile trip. Dropping back to 2m 5f today is expected to suit him much better.

Currently racing off a mark of 55, which should make him competitive based on the flashes of ability he’s shown in previous starts. As a 4-year-old with only six career starts, he hasn't been over-raced. He’s relatively unexposed and should have more room for improvement than many of his rivals. Tongue-tie applied for the first time.

Not entirely reliable in the jumping department, considering he's failed to complete in 3 of his last 5 runs. His last outing at Bangor was a big step forward. He finished a decent 2nd of 10, staying on well that day and looks primed to go one better. Before his fall at Stratford in early March, he was actually in second place and travelling very comfortably. If he puts in a clear round of jumping today, his current handicap mark of 97 looks very winnable. Today’s 3-mile trip is exactly what he wants. He is a sturdy stayer who relishes a test of stamina, which Hexham’s uphill finish provides in spades.

Recently ran a creditable fifth in a valuable Class 2 Go North Final at Kelso. Dropping back down to a Class 4 today represents an easing of competition. Runs off an official rating of 104. Her recent form suggests she is very well handicapped for this level, especially given that she stayed on well at the finish of her last race. She has already run at Hexham (finishing fourth in a Novice Hurdle last November), so the undulating track won't be a surprise to her. Trained by Nicky Richards and ridden by Danny McMenamin (who is currently striking at over 30% for the last two weeks).

Finished a respectable 7th of 15 at Doncaster 16 days ago. While 7th doesn't sound amazing, it was a competitive apprentice handicap and he was only beaten by about 4.5 lengths. He should be sharper for that run. He made all when winning at Chepstow last summer. If Rossa Ryan can grab the rail and dictate a steady pace, he could be very hard to peg back on this ground. It wouldn't be the biggest surprise if he reverses that Doncaster form with Expressionless, who finished 3rd in that contest.

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.
