Dual C&D winner; tougher task off 6lb higher in deeper race than last time but respected

In good form since the visor returned, twice over C&D; likely to run well again.
3	Magic Seven b Richie McLernon · Jonjo & A J O'Neill	Richie McLernon · Jonjo & A J O'Neill	165	—	-32425	112	119	111	28d	—	—	-33	41.1	4/1 20%
Fair hurdler who's gone close over fences in limited chances, more still needed though.

Had wind surgery since finishing a solid second at Uttoxeter latest; leading claims.

Should give another good account but will likely prove vulnerable off this sort of mark.
7	Fat Sam ch James Davies · Chris Down	James Davies · Chris Down	156	t	23-324	103	119	92	28d	—	—	-41	33.3	10/1 9%
Generally reliable veteran who is capable of bouncing back from a recent lesser effort.

Generally disappointing since completing a hat-trick in 2024 and easy to look elsewhere.

Well treated on old form but hard to fancy in current shape.
