A faller at Warwick on his chase debut in October, Idalko Bihoue emphatically put the record straight with a seven-length romp over 2m4f at Cheltenham later that month and he is likely to have a lot more to give in this sphere, while Russian Ruler and Blow Your Wad also enter the equation as chasers on the upgrade. Top-weight GENERAL MEDRANO may have found one too good off a 1lb lower mark when bidding for a chase hat-trick over the extended 2m3f at Plumpton last month, but he remains on an upward curve and this extra furlong could unlock further improvement.

A Listed winner in France last month, IL EST FRANCAIS is 2-2 over fences and could be difficult to overhaul in his bid to complete the hat-trick. The gelding was notably a Grade 1 winner over hurdles at Auteuil last year and seems to have taken very well to larger obstacles. Hermes Allen comfortably landed a Grade 2 novices' chase at Newbury at the start of this month and has to be feared, while Giovinco has also shown stacks of promise and clearly rates as the the pick of the rest.
A cracking renewal. HERMES ALLEN ran to a really high level for a chase newcomer when taking a Newbury Grade 2 on his reappearance and will be a tough nut to crack if showing up in similar form. The way Giovinco travelled at Sandown last time suggests 3m around here could be ideal for him and he's second choice ahead of exciting French challenger Il Est Francais.

Six-time Grade 1-winning hurdler CONSTITUTION HILL makes his belated seasonal bow. The Blue Bresil gelding has yet to be asked any serious questions and he looks set to maintain his unbeaten record under Rules, with his rivals likely to be fighting it out for second place. The progressive Rubaud proved a ready winner of the Elite Hurdle at Wincanton last month and Paul Nicholls' inmate may provide the most resistance to the selection. The five-year-old has won four races on the bounce and he shouldn't be disgraced at this highest level, while First Street may fare best of the remainder.
Has won a hurdle race and eight chases from 2m 4f to 3m on ground varying from good to soft to soft - heavy. Won on his latest outing in a Grade 2 chase when 1-4fav in the Group 2 Clonmel Oil Chase at Clonmel over 2m 4f (heavy) last month, beating Janidil by 9l.

ALLAHO has won seven of his last eight and hasn't actually tasted defeat since April 2021, when outpaced by Chacun Pour Soi over 2m at Punchestown. Admittedly, the dual Ryanair hero spent a good chunk of time on the sidelines, but he looked to have lost little of his sparkle when returning with a comfortable victory in the Clonmel Oil Chase and 3m around Kempton looks absolutely ideal for him. Bravemansgame defends his crown, having accounted for Royale Pagaille by 14 lengths last season, but that form was reversed in the Betfair Chase and the suspicion lingers that Paul Nicholls' star is still feeling the effects of a gallant performance for second in the Gold Cup. Big question marks surround Shishkin after he showed the darker side to his nature on his intended Ascot comeback. The Real Whacker flopped in the Paddy Power Gold Cup, but this is more his cup of tea and he could prove a nuisance to the selection at the head of affairs.
A winner of a NH flat race at 2m 2f on good ground. Beaten 10l by Fiercely Proud when second of 13 at 5-2 on his hurdling debut at Hereford over 2m (good) last month.

Gentleman's Relish justified strong market support when landing a bumper at Newbury last month and Nicky Henderson's charge warrants respect on his hurdles debut. However, COURT IN THE ACT found only a subsequent winner too strong on his opening bid over timber at Hereford in November and the four-year-old shades the verdict with that experience under his belt. Onethreefivenotout ran with more encouragement when second at Wincanton recently and is unlikely to be far away either.
MOON CHIME was useful in bumpers and is taken to make a successful start to his hurdle career, most likely at the expense of Court In The Act. Nicky Henderson's Gentleman's Relish is another who has shown more than enough in bumpers to think he can make his presence felt in a race like this now hurdling.
Winner of six hurdle races from 2m to 2m 5f on ground varying from good to soft (latest flat win was in May). Well beaten at 15-2 behind Gin Coco when fifth of 6 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Ascot over 2m (good) last month.

WILL CARVER ran out a ready winner on his seasonal bow at Taunton in November. The gelded son of Califet won enough in hand that day to suggest that a 9lb rise in the ratings isn't insurmountable and he may be able to thwart the challenge of handicap debutant Emailandy. The five-year-old finished a respectable third in a competitive novice hurdle at Newbury earlier this month and he isn't taken lightly. Artistic Endeavour also makes some appeal, despite this rise in class.
