FEARLESS ACTION has shaped as if amiss twice this season but he's been running well otherwise so could be the answer off a tempting mark. I'm Too Tired tends to go well here so may emerge as the main threat back down in trip.

Won a course hurdle last year and opened his chasing account at the second attempt over C&D on Boxing Day. Not so good next 2 starts, however, including back here 5 weeks ago. Change of headgear and back down in trip.

Won at Kelso last season and a couple of good runner-up efforts this term. Also shaped as if amiss twice this campaign but was quickly back to form when third at Catterick 2 weeks ago. Looks on a fair mark eased 1 lb.

Verdict
Won over fences at Catterick last season. Was holding his form pretty well this term until running no sort of race at Southwell in October. Off since so might have had a problem that day.

Verdict
Remains a maiden but runner-up twice over fences this season, denied late on by a next-time-out winner at Kelso in October. However, needs to shrug off a couple of poor efforts from the following month back from a break.

Verdict
Gained a third success over fences at Southwell a year ago but more lows than highs since. However, arrives on the back of a good second at Catterick 2 weeks ago so claims off the same mark.
