Bold Light
This looks wide open so at the likely odds it could be worth siding with last year's victor BOLD LIGHT to bounce back in style after an unproductive spell chasing with his yard also right back on the up of late. Smart Decision seems sure to be on the premises off a still handy-looking mark, while in-form duo Good To Be Alive and Fingal's Hill are firmly in the picture too.

It's now 11 runs since his last win in 2024 but he's holding his form well, sixth of 13 in 3m handicap hurdle at Musselburgh 27 days ago.

Failed to go on after a winning debut for Gordon Elliott last season but on the up for his current yard, twice runner-up before going one better in 2m4f Plumpton handicap hurdle 33 days ago.

Enjoyed a productive 2024/25 campaign when a three-time scorer, including in this contest.

Low mileage for his age and notched a second course success just after Christmas.

Front-running hurdler who enjoyed a remarkable 2024 when completing a 6-timer in novice and handicap company at up to 3m. Off since coming in a well-held fifth in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham 14 months ago but this likeable sort still warrants respect.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCheltenham2m 7f 213yGood to SoftHurdle5/6Newcastle2m 6fGoodHurdle1/6Exeter2m 5f 137yGoodHurdle1/5Newcastle2m 7f 149yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle1/7Aintree3m 149yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle1/7
