Ran to form when second, beaten 9 1/2l, in a handicap chase at Wetherby last time. Effective at around 2m4f and acting on soft and good to soft ground, he has been consistent since switching to fences and still holds a chance.

Placed in a hurdle race and three chases from eight starts. Beaten 10l by Wolfburg when second of 8 at 2-1fav on his latest outing in a chase at Wetherby over 2m 3f (soft) in December last year.

Ran to form when beaten 2l off this mark on his return to chasing after a break at Huntingdon last time. Effective from 2m4f to 3m and acting on good and soft ground, he is consistent but can be frustrating, with his battling qualities a concern.

Again well below form when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Musselburgh last time. Returning from a short break, she is effective at around 2m4f but remains inconsistent, with the ground also noted as a worry.

She has won two hurdle races and a chase from 2m 4f to 2m 6f on good and good to soft ground. Well beaten at 33-1 behind O'Faolains Glory when fifth of 8 on her latest outing in a chase at Musselburgh over 2m 4f (good to soft) in November last year.

At The Races Verdict

IMPERIAL BEDE showed up well at Haydock before fading in the closing stages on his first outing for over a year. That run should have blown any cobwebs away and, given his only win over fences so far came on heavy ground, these conditions will suit the eight-year-old. Onesoc is 10lb higher than when successful in this contest last year, although he won with plenty left in the tank and could still feature, as could the recent C&D winner El Muchacho.

Expert View Verdict

Last year's winner Onesoc returns off a fair mark and could easily repeat if he's ready to roll, but with the ground so testing and him having a 356-day absence to overcome there must be a chance he'll get outlasted by at least one rival. That one might be ATHAIR MOR, who has finished runner-up on each of his last three starts, the last twice at Wetherby. He looks to be wanting a step up to 3m a more positive ride this time, on testing ground, could see him get off the mark. A Great Excuse has more to offer also, provided he's over a last-time-out fall.
