Things haven't gone to plan so far this season for DODDIETHEGREAT, hampered at the start when pulled up back over hurdles at Kempton on Boxing Day, but he's now on a handy mark given the promise he showed last season and could be ready to take advantage. Altobelli has run well both starts at this course and heads the list of dangers, while Bo Zenith could still have more to offer.

    Verdict
    Promising juvenile hurdler for Gary Moore in 2022/23, winning twice and second in Grade 1 at Aintree final outing. After 20-month absence, finished strongly for third in handicap at Cheltenham (16.8f, good to soft) in December, so he remains with potential upped in trip.

    Verdict
    Won first 2 starts over hurdles and good efforts when placed twice here (both at 15.7f) last season. Looked rusty after 10 months off when runner-up at Doncaster in December, though finished off well, so he enters calculations back up in trip with cheekpieces added.

    Verdict
    Had been shaping up well in 2023/24, including good fourth in Betfair Hurdle at Newbury, but held back by inexperience on chasing debut at Kempton on return. Hampered at the start back hurdling at Kempton last time, so he's worth another chance from his current mark.

    Verdict
    Won three times during novice campaign, including a Haydock Grade 2, and added to his tally in handicap at Aintree (20f) on return. Ran at least as well when fourth of 14 at Haydock (18.9f, soft) last time and he can give another good account.

    Verdict
    Bumper winner who also landed her first 2 starts over hurdles last winter. Resumed progress when runner-up at Bangor (19.6f) on handicap/seasonal debut and, whilst she failed to back it up at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) since, the return to further should suit.

    Verdict
    Resumed progress on return with victory in 17-runner Silver Trophy at Chepstow (19.4f) in October, form which has worked out well. Failed to repeat that effort at Haydock (18.9f, soft) the following month, but he's not ruled out given the promise of his reappearance.

    Not straightforward but recorded a creditable third of 9 to Kamsinas in handicap at Aintree (20f) on return, though typically carried head high. However, in first-time visor he wasn't in the same form at Haydock (18.9f, soft) on latest outing.

    Made winning chase debut at Stratford (17f) but went the wrong way next 3 starts, running out twice. Fared better back hurdling with visor added when fourth of 18 at this course (15.7f, good to soft) in December, though others still more persuasive. Cheekpieces reapplied.

    After 7 months off, proved better than ever when scoring readily at Warwick (21f) in November and backed that up when fifth of 12 at Cheltenham (20.2f, good to soft) 35 days ago, though did hang right and flash tail run-in. Will need to find more again.

    Verdict
    Very smart hurdler in his pomp but struggled for form last season. Back over fences, opened his chase account at the third attempt in an Exeter handicap (17.5f, heavy) in March, though only narrowly denied sole other finisher, so others preferred on his return.
