Salver
A Grade 1 with an open feel to it but SALVER has the right blend of stamina for 25f coupled with the class to win a novice at this level so he looks the answer on the back of an excellent staying-on third in the Brown Advisory Novices' Chase at Cheltenham. Gold Dancer arrives on the back of a smart performance in the Golden Miller Novices' Chase but he could be vulnerable late on, so Jordans Cross is offered as the chief threat at longer odds.

Completed a hat-trick in Grade 3 at Tipperary in October. Runner-up in a brace of Grade 1s after and ran a cracker switched to a handicap when second in Golden Miller Novices' Chase at Cheltenham. Has to conclusively prove he stays 3m+ but he's bang there on form.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosCheltenham2m 4f 127yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/18Navan3mHeavyChase4/4Limerick2m 5fSoft to HeavyChase2/4Fairyhouse2m 4f 55yYielding to Soft (Soft in places)Chase2/6Tipperary2m 3f 160yGood to YieldingChase1/5- 7SalverJ: Caoilin QuinnE: Gary & Josh Moore2-31413Âge 67/27/210/3

Smart hurdler and similar standard over fences, winning 3m Grade 2s at Sandown and Windsor this winter, beating Doyen Quest on each occasion. Stuck to it really well when 3 lengths third of 14 to Kitzbuhel in Brown Advisory Novices' Chase a month ago and that is just about the best form on offer.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosCheltenham3m 1fGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase3/14Windsor3m 60ySoftChase1/6Kempton Park3mGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase4/6Sandown Park3m 37yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase1/4Exeter2m 1f 109yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase3/5- 6Regent's StrollJ: Harry CobdenE: Paul Nicholls12-3123Âge 75/14/19/2

Well regarded and talented bumper performer who was collared close home in Grade 1 at this meeting a year ago. Won a match on second chase start in December and again jumped well when third in the Golden Miller Novices' Chase at Cheltenham. Keen-going front runner but should get easy 25f.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosCheltenham2m 4f 127yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase3/18Cheltenham2m 4f 127yGoodChase2/5Wincanton2m 4f 35ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/2Newbury2m 3f 187yGood to SoftChase3/6Aintree2m 4fGoodHurdle2/9- 5Miami MagicJ: Charlie HammondE: Stuart Edmunds7-33131Âge 75/14/19/2

Useful novice hurdler and already better over fences, excellent third of 4 in Scilly Isles at Sandown flanked by a brace of victories in 5-runner novice events (defeating Regent's Stroll on first occasion). Stamina looks his forte and he has a bigger effort in him.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosNewbury2m 7f 91yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase1/5Sandown Park2m 4f 15ySoft (Heavy in places)Chase3/4Cheltenham2m 4f 127yGoodChase1/5Kempton Park2m 2fGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase3/5Uttoxeter1m 7f 214yGoodChase3/3- 8WendigoJ: Jonathan BurkeE: Jamie Snowden5-2131FÂge 75/14/19/2

Wasted little time surpassing his hurdles form over fences, winning novices at Newbury (2½m Grade 2) in November and Ayr (3m, heavy) in January. Good third to Kitzbuhel in Kauto Star at Kempton in between and would have finished close to Salver had he completed in Brown Advisory Novices' Chase.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosCheltenham3m 1fGood to Soft (Good in places)ChaseF/14Ayr3m 20ySoftChase1/3Kempton Park3mGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase3/6Newbury2m 3f 187yGood to SoftChase1/6Worcester2m 4fGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/5- 4Jordans CrossJ: Sam Twiston-DaviesE: Anthony Honeyball2-1F118Âge 611/110/112/1

Irish point winner was quick to switch to fences and he looked an exciting prospect when going 3-4 in Timeform Novices' Handicap at Cheltenham in January. That race typically worked out well and it's easy enough to excuse effort in the Golden Miller Novices' Chase. Looks ready for 3m+.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosCheltenham2m 4f 127yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase8/18Cheltenham2m 4f 127ySoftChase1/9Doncaster2m 3f 31yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase1/5Cheltenham2m 4f 44ySoftChaseF/6Aintree1m 7f 176yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/6- 2Doyen QuestJ: Harry SkeltonE: Dan Skelton-142122Âge 812/112/111/1

Useful hurdler who ran his best race when jumping boldly to score at Exeter in November. Might have pressed on too soon when 12 lengths second of 4 to Salver in Grade 2 at Sandown and while he got closer to that rival at Windsor, he has his work cut out again.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosWindsor3m 60ySoftChase2/6Sandown Park3m 37yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase2/4Exeter3m 54yGoodChase1/4Chepstow2m 3f 98yGood to Firm (Good in places)Chase2/4Worcester2m 110yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase4/4- 1Crest Of FortuneJ: Richie McLernonE: Anthony Honeyball13-2463Âge 640/140/150/1

Useful novice hurdler last season, including third in 3m Grade 1 at this meeting. Matched that form in defeat first 2 starts over fences but reportedly amiss in Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day (bled) and latest Ascot run hardly brimming with promise with a view to this assignment.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosAscot2m 7f 185yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase3/3Kempton Park3mGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase6/6Newbury2m 3f 187yGood to SoftChase4/6Cheltenham2m 4f 44yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/14Aintree3m 149yGoodHurdle3/13
