Desfondado ran well on his return but didn't back that up next time. He seems in great shape and it would be no surprise to see him get back on track here. A big run is expected.

Mesaafi ran with promise in both runs as a 2yo, beaten a similar distance in each. We gelded him in the autumn and from a decent draw this evening, we're hoping he can build on those performances with a run in the money.

Bated Breeze joined in the summer and his initial run in August was disappointing. The handicapper hasn't  taken any chances with his mark but we'll have a better idea on that after he runs.

Holy Fire loves Kempton and has the perfect draw today. She has been slightly below par on her last couple of starts but I was delighted with her work last week and am hopeful she is returning to form.

There's terrific prize money for this chase and we're having two stabs at it. Black Gerry has been off form this season but if he could get back to somewhere near his best, he would have to be considered.

Alain made his racecourse debut in one of the recently introduced juvenile NH hurdles. He pulled up and will need to show much more to figure in this.

Drying conditions will help Tapley who acts around the track and has the pace to hold his own in the likely strong-run race. Good ground is needed to see him at his best and good is likely to be sneaking in the going description come race time. He has a nice light weight but is…

After a couple of good runs in novice handicap hurdles off a fairly high mark around 110, it was disappointing that All Authorized failed to land long odds-on last time at Fontwell. We're not giving up on him yet and back in a handicap, we expect him to figure at the business end, hopefully for…

Profitman did a bit too much too early over 1m at Chelmsford last time. Stepping back to 7f around the sharp Wolverhampton track hopefully will suit him better. He's in good form at home.

Cephalus won impressively over this CD a week ago. Today's race is worth almost five times as much to the winner and it would have been a help if he had been better drawn. In terrific form though and is sure to give his new owner another exciting day out.

Gogo Yubari needed his narrow win at Lingfield a week ago to squeeze in at the bottom of this field. He has a nice draw and if the penalty proves too much, I would still be delighted if he ran in the first four.

Our other runner Andaleep can never be written off. He stays further than today's trip and will be running on in the straight.

Suspicion deserves to be favourite. He seems to be a progressive horse and while he now carries a penalty for his win, I think he should have improved enough again to beat the two that were behind him on debut at Kempton last time. Hopeful.

Laurens Bay was a very promising 2nd in one of the first 4-year-old Irish point-to-points of 2023. He has been given time to mature and strengthen and is another promising recruit to the team. This looks a competitive bumper but our lad should be in the mix.

Abingworth has done himself proud since going over fences, with three 2nd places, and a win from only five starts. A similar performance could bring him home in front.

Justahunch has his first start for us. At this stage, I would say he's limited and needs to drop a few pounds to get in those 0-50 handicaps somewhere like Brighton. If he did win it would reflect more on how well the team is going.

Asgard's Captain should win. He has been flying at home since the last two wins and Rhys got on well with him on first acquaintance last time. The hat-trick beckons.

Coastguard Station disappointed last time but is on a lower mark than when running well last season. This is a weak race for the meeting and he ought to be capable of making the first three.
