THE JUKEBOX MAN looks like making an even better chaser than hurdler judged on last month's 2½m Newbury Grade 2 success and he'll be hard to beat back at 3m. The return to this trip should also suit White Rhino, who may be the one to give Ben Pauling's 6-y-o most to do on the back of comfortable handicap wins this autumn.

    Verdict
    Smart novice hurdler last season, including runner-up in 3m Grade 1s at Cheltenham and Aintree. Made a very promising winning start to his chase career in 2½m Newbury Grade 2 last month and there should be even more to come now returning to 3m. The one to beat.

    Verdict
    Useful hurdler and even better chaser, making it 3-4 over the larger obstacles with a listed novice success at Cheltenham (3m, good to soft) 6 weeks ago. Has the form to be thereabouts but some of these have greater scope for improvement.

    Verdict
    Successful twice over hurdles last season and justified support when making winning chase debut in 2½m Newbury handicap (good to soft) in November. Bettered that form when 2 lengths second to The Jukebox Man back at Newbury 3 weeks later. No reason why he'll turn the tables on Ben Pauling's charge.

    Verdict
    Good strike rate over hurdles and has taken it up a notch again over fences this season, winning handicaps at Ayr (20.5f) and Haydock (21.5f). His best hurdle form came around 3m so he can likely improve again now stepping back up in trip. Can make his mark at Graded level.

    Verdict
    Useful novice hurdler last season. Shaped promisingly when 6 lengths fourth of 5 in 3m Sandown Grade 2 on chase debut, fading as if the outing was just needed. Should improve.
