10st 2lb

J: Lee Edwards

T: Henry Oliver

Irish point winner who has yet to show any worthwhile form over hurdles (2m-2m4f) on varying ground, including since switched to handicaps on his last two starts and fitted with cheekpieces; not entirely dismissed on this switch to fences off a basement mark but he needs to step up.

J: Lee Edwards

T: Henry Oliver

Irish point winner; very quiet in his first three races over hurdles and again on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good; first-time cheekpieces), though did appear to perform below market expectations having gone off at 5-1; could be given another chance.

J: Lee Edwards

T: Henry Oliver

Won an Irish point in April 2025 (3m, good to yielding); three ordinary runs over 2m over hurdles; likely to improve markedly for step up in trip and cheekpieces on h'cap debut; a possible.

Won Irish point in the spring (good to yielding) but was soundly beaten in two slow-ground hurdles this autumn and remains best watched.

J: Lee Edwards

T: Henry Oliver

A winning Irish pointer but he came in a well-held eighth of 12 in novice at Bangor (2m, soft) on his hurdling debut 20 days ago; lots more is required.
