Handstands
Acts on soft ground; overall record is 6-8; campaigned in Grade 2 contests since switched to chasing, falling at Wincanton then winning at Sandown (3m) and Ffos Las (2m3f; only two finished); behind a couple of these opponents on ratings but he's progressive and adds interest.

Jango Baie
Acts on soft; solid performer whose overall record is 2112221; better off with Handstands on Listed novice hurdle running a year ago; impressive in Cheltenham novice chase (2m4f) on sole outing this term and the runner-up has advertised that form since; looks a high-class prospect in this sphere and commands major respect.

Mark Of Gold
Flat/hurdles winner who bagged Grade 2 honours at Ascot (2m3f, good to soft) last time on chase debut; however, has the worst chance on ratings upped further in class and lacks potential, having raced 33 times in total, which is higher mileage than all of these rivals combined.

Kalif Du Berlais
Acts on heavy; overall record is 5-7; Grade 2 winner over hurdles; campaigned only at about 2m but he is bred to be suited by this new trip; has form figures of F11 since switched to fences, the wins in novice handicaps, latest at Cheltenham where he easily beat a subsequent scorer; improving 5yo who is a big player on the figures.
