MARTATOR saw his winning spree come to an end when third at Kempton last time but remains handily weighted and with this return to further likely to suit he can bounce back in style. The progressive Terresita heads the list of dangers, although a solid case can also be made for Scarface, Kotmask, Bad and Latenightpass in this very open handicap chase.

    Verdict
    Smart handicap chaser who brought up the 5-timer with plenty to spare here in November. Not at same level when third at Kempton (2m) latest but return to longer trip is in his favour and he looks sure to give a good account.

    Verdict
    A very useful 3m scorer early in 2024 but not at that level this term, cheekpieces back on when fifth of 8 in handicap here (23.8f, soft) 28 days ago. More is required despite a falling mark.

    Verdict
    Thrived over fences when cheekpieces went on, winning 3 times around 2½m between January and April. Comes here on the back of a good second of 7 over 2m2f here four weeks ago so must enter calculations.

    Improved switched to fences and made a winning return in listed company at Carlisle (20f) in November. Backed it up with a very good third of 7 in handicap over C&D since so he's not taken lightly eased 1 lb.

    Fairly useful winning hurdler who has started well in this sphere, leading long way when a clear second of 10 in 2m4f Southwell handicap last month. Considered despite being 5 lb "wrong" in the weights.

    Not the most consistent but started this campaign with creditable second in Old Roan Chase at Aintree (20f, good to soft) in October. Could prove dangerous if putting his best foot forward.
