Well, we know he's trained on, and we know he likes the AW. The win last time at Nottingham hinted he is still on the upgrade, having fought off challengers to eventually win with reasonable comfort. The trainer historically does well at this time of year with his AW runners, and this is his only AW runner today.

Won this last year off just 4lb higher. Has been highly tried throughout the year on ground softer than ideal. Three of his five wins have come on ground with 'good' in the description. Ran a cracker in the Grand National. Hopefully, the 4-week break is enough for him to show his best again this afternoon in a race that would almost clinch the trainer's championship for Mullins if he was to win.

Went close a few times last year off marks in the 70s with his last win coming off 79. Down to an effective mark of just 61 today, he has a nice draw in 1 and acts on this type of ground. Recent run at Thirsk should put him spot on for this at a track where he has gone well in the past.

Highly tried last two runs after posting three nice runs at the start of the season. Effectively 2lb lower than when just getting touched off at Newbury in a class 2, this looks a much easier opportunity.

His last 4 runs have been really solid, with his last two in 56K and 36K races being his standout runs of the year. Down 1lb for those runs, and this looks like a much easier contest. Handles Good/Soft and faster, and this trip looks ideal. Last two wins have come off marks in the mid-130s, so today's mark of 129 offers a solid opportunity.

Was going well enough at Cheltenham when falling two out, might have been a little unlucky as the leader crossed him and may have just distracted him. That was his first try at this kind of trip and looked like he would stay it well. Softer ground should suit and claimer takes off 3lb to effectively make him 1lb lower than his Cheltenham run. Can add to Cromwell's already fantastic season.

The class horse of the race, who has solid form in Group and Listed races over 1m 4f, has been staying on in those races. So the step up in trip looks likely to suit. Apparently needs fast ground, so any drying of this currently good ground will be a help. A winner on seasonal debut in the previous 2 years, so clearly goes well fresh, has won his last two handicaps.

There shouldn't be much in her and the favorite on their run here in December with the selection being effectively 8lb better off for 8L and the better ground likely to suit more.

6-year-old who has gotten better as the season has gone on. His only really bad showing was when thrown into a Class 2 in December. The higher class and softer ground might have done for him that day, but he showed enough last time to suggest he's still on the up. Good ground today is a positive, and this stiff finish should also suit. A good claimer takes off a useful 5lb.

I see no real reason why this one shouldn't frank the Arkle form. I'm not sure why she isn't the favorite. Mares have a 7lb allowance and go on this type of ground. I'd have the top two in the betting the other way around.

King George winner in 2023 and also won the Bet365 Gold Cup over 3m 5f. Both those were on good ground, which is in keeping with the majority of his best form. This time last year, he was rated 169 when finishing just behind Galopin Des Champs at the Punchestown Festival. Comes into this race fresher than most, having just his 4th run. The ground has come for him, he stays well. If he takes to these fences, he should have a cracking chance at a double-figure price.

I can't have the favorite on this ground, and all the others are taking turns in beating each other apart from Gwinnie, who just might not be good enough. It seems so un-Mullins-like to throw a 5-year-old into this over a trip 1 mile further than it's gone before, which just makes me think he might have a monster over this trip.

I'm not sure what price those two would be in this off 137, but I'm sure it would be less than 66/1!

First, second, and fourth in the Foxhunters here and has held his form well despite being a 12yo. Was in front in the Grand National 2 out last year before tiring over a trip that's just too far. Two runs behind Stumptown (who is almost fav for the National) show what good form he's in. Drying ground won't be an issue, and the claimer takes off a useful 3lb.

Won this last year off the same mark. Started the season well, and the trainer was talking big things about him. Hasn't lived up to that, but still a young horse who can get his career back on track here. Best two runs of the season came on faster ground, so a return to quicker ground might also help his chances. Another who missed Cheltenham to keep himself fresh for this.

Loads of pace in this race, I think this will go to a proper 3m horse and this one has already won a grade 1 over 3m. He split Fact to File and GDC on his first outing of the year when staying on well in the John Durkin. He missed Cheltenham for this and I think he will have too much class.

Won a class 3 over hurdles off 121 last year. Whilst its two AW runs have been poor this season, it's hardly a surprise over 7f and 1m. Last flat run was beaten less than 1L off 76, and this time last year was beaten less than 4L in a class 2 off 84.

Ran some nice races in Group company last year. He split Inisherin and Vandeek in the Sandy Lane. That was over 6f but also has bits of form over 1m, and both his wins have come over 7f. A year older, so a longer trip is more likely to be within his compass, especially over this easy mile. Down to an effective mark of 92 today with a good claimer taking off 5lb. This is the first time he's been rated in double figures since winning the Horris Hill as a 2yo. Drawn in 4, which is apparently a disadvantage despite 2 of the last 4 winners being drawn 2 and 4, and the last time the race was run on this type of ground, 4 of the first 5 home were drawn 4-3-1-5. Big price from a stable that does well in this type of race.

All his best form has come on this type of ground, including his two wins, second twice last year off a mark of 120. So even though this is higher than his last winning mark of 110, his current mark of 116 should offer some optimism. Two runs this year have been over an inadequate trip and then on unsuitable ground. 2m 4f on Good is right up his street, and first-time headgear could also bring out a little extra. The stable is in decent form with 7 of their last 8 runners finishing in the top 3.

Unexposed 5-year-old having his first handicap run this afternoon. He's shown a fair level of form to date, finishing 2nd in a decent point where the winner is now rated in the 120s. Placed twice under rules, the latter behind Wendigo that wasn't beaten far at the festival. The second in that race (beat him by just over 1L) has won since and is now rated 112, meaning today's effective mark of 92 should give him every opportunity to open his account at a nice price.
