Rallied well for narrow Uttoxeter win last month and might still be improving; big player

Just 1-13 over hurdles but comes here after two good efforts; no surprise if she features

No win since summer 2020 but ran well last month, after a break and has each-way claims

3-6 in points this year; found 2m1f too sharp on hurdling return; can do better here

Shock winner here in May but flopped badly last time and can't be relied upon

Chasing has not gone to plan but he switches back to hurdling on a very tempting mark

Remains unexposed and worth a glance in the betting but others have more obvious claims
