22/1

Quirky sort who put his best foot forward when runner-up in last season's Midlands National. However, ended time with Willie Mullins on a low-key note last spring and not for the first time blotted his copybook by refusing to race on return/stable debut at Wetherby in December. Risky.

Form: U/2UP-PR

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: Liam Harrison| T: F O'Brien| OR: 133

5/1

Just the one success over fences so far, namely a Bangor handicap back in 2023. Largely held his form well over fences late last year before a lesser display at Doncaster in December but returns with stable amongst the winners and better anticipated from reduced mark.

Dare To Shout^t¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Mrs A Hamilton| OR: 132| C

15/8

Fairly useful hurdler who made it second time lucky over fences at Carlisle (20f) in November. Runner-up all 4 starts since, chasing home subsequent Cheltenham Festival winner Myretown on penultimate run. Record here reads 122 and shortlisted back up in trip.

Form: 212222

Cadell⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Alan Doyle⁽³⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 128| C

15/8

A fairly useful winner over hurdles and he took a sizeable step forward when landing 3m Wetherby novice chase in November. Hasn't featured in deeper contests subsequently but this drop back in trip rates more suitable and this 7-y-o isn't one to write off.

Form: 2P-315P

Your Own Story^v1²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-3| J: P W Wadge| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 125

4/1

Thorough stayer who was second in Borders National here (4m) in December prior to a respectable sixth in Welsh equivalent later that month. Fifth in Eider Chase on latest run 4 weeks ago (later disqualified after rider weighed in light) and likely he'll benefit from making this a good test. Visored.

Form: 22-P26D

Forecasts

Cadell (15/8), Dare To Shout (15/8), Your Own Story (4/1), Pull Again Green (5/1), Mr Incredible (22/1)

Consistent 8-y-o DARE TO SHOUT's penultimate second here looks all the more solid given his conqueror that day Myretown's most impressive success in the Ultima at Cheltenham last week. and, boasting a sound course record/no fears at the trip, he looks a sure-fire player again. This sort of test looks a minimum for Your Own Story nowadays but a positive ride in a first-time visor can see him go well at the foot of the weights. Pull Again Green completes the shortlist.
