Having marked himself down as a leading novice hurdler for Gordon Elliott last term, CALDWELL POTTER made the perfect start for new connections with a smooth chase debut success at Carlisle 12 days ago. Open to above-average improvement, he's fancied to follow-up over this longer trip. Jango Baie, on reappearance/chase bow, and Deafening Silence can emerge next best.

    Verdict
    Highly promising sort who quickly reached a smart level over hurdles for Gordon Elliott, winning Grade 1 at Leopardstown last winter. Perfect start for new yard when winning Carlisle novice chase (2m) with plenty to spare 12 days ago and he's evidently a leading prospect in this sphere. Up in trip.

    Irish point recruit who won first 2 starts over hurdles, latterly the Grade 1 Formby at Aintree on Boxing Day. Runner-up all 3 starts thereafter, posting a fine effort in circumstances in big-field handicap (20f) at the National Meeting in April. Exciting prospect for chasing.

    Verdict
    Very useful hurdler who made a winning return/chase debut at Chepstow (19.5f) in October and similar form despite not settling when third in 4-runner in listed company here (24.5f) 4 weeks ago. Returns to shorter now and he remains open to improvement.

    Verdict
    Point winner who boasted a record of 2-3 over hurdles, including Grade 2 success at Sandown (19.8f) last winter. Shaped very well after a year off when third in Haydock Graduation chase (21.6f) 3 weeks ago. Looks sure to improve for that initial experience.

    Verdict
    Picked up for £160,000 after winning a couple of Irish points early last year. Stiff task both starts 12 months apart under Rules so far, latterly when coming home last of 8 behind L'eau du Sud in Grade 2 here (15.9f) 4 weeks ago. Up in trip now but this another very tall ask.
