Sheldon
SHELDON is a sketchy jumper but these fences aren't too demanding and based on a couple of excellent placed efforts at Newbury this year, he looks ready to add to his tally. Soldierofthestorm arrives on the up so has to be taken seriously, while Tapley will likely give it another good shot.

Landed a gamble in handicap hurdle at Catterick on return from an absence and has advanced his form over fences, off the mark at the second attempt when dictating at Sandown last month. 5 lb rise won't prevent another very bold bid in this small field.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSandown Park2m 4f 15ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/5Hereford2m 4f 194ySoftChase2/11Catterick Bridge2m 3f 66yGoodHurdle1/14Punchestown2m 3f 93yYieldingHurdle14/25Wetherby2m 5f 56yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle4/13- 2TapleyJ: Isabelle RyderT: Suzy Smith3214231Age 911/411/43/1

Opened his chase account at Wincanton (2½m) in November and has continued in good nick, ridden aggressively when third of 6 in novice handicap at Kempton before going in again over 23f at Stratford 17 days ago.

Not the most fluent of jumpers but he's yet to finish outside of the frame this season, doing well to last as long as he did under a forcing ride when third at Newbury (23f) in February. Again ridden positively when second back there 3 weeks ago and he's a major contender.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewbury2m 6f 93yGood to SoftChase2/11Newbury2m 7f 91ySoftChase3/8Newbury2m 7f 91yGood to SoftChase2/11Exeter3m 54yHeavyChase3/6Chepstow2m 3f 98yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase4/9- 3ClotildaJ: Freddie GingellT: Paul Nicholls-0622F3Age 54/15/19/2

Fair juvenile hurdler/chaser in France who has acquitted herself well over the larger obstacles for Paul Nicholls, including when second of 6 at Wincanton on Boxing Day. Fell too far out to suggest the outcome back there next time but just a one-paced third of 8 at Taunton latest.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosTaunton2m 7f 3yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase3/8Wincanton3m 1f 30ySoft (Good to Soft in places)ChaseF/8Wincanton2m 4f 35yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase2/6Exeter2m 3f 48yGood to SoftChase2/10Newton Abbot2m 167yGood to SoftHurdle6/9- 5Hold Up La ColmineJ: Callum PritchardT: Philip Hobbs & Johnson White3P-1353Age 98/18/115/2

Fairly useful performance when wide-margin winner under positive ride at Windsor on reappearance but hasn't convinced with his finishing effort all 3 starts since.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFontwell Park2m 3f 104ySoftChase3/4Windsor2m 6f 50ySoftChase5/10Leicester2m 4f 110ySoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle3/6Windsor2m 4f 42yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase1/7Market Rasen2m 5f 89yGood to SoftChasepu/7
