J: James Bowen

T: Nicky Henderson

Has bettered his winning hurdle form when runner-up on all three starts over fences; his latest effort at Kempton over Christmas is solid form and he can get off the mark over the larger obstacles now.

10st 12lb

J: Robert Dunne

T: Nicky Henderson

Irish point winner; hurdle wins have come over 2m3f (good) and 2m4f (soft) but he looked suited by the stiff test at Chepstow (about 2m7f, good to soft) when runner-up there this month in only his second chase; open to improvement but others may be better suited by this sharp 3m.

J: Freddie Gordon

T: Nicky Henderson

Irish point winner with 2-5 strike-rate over hurdles; well held when second of four on chase debut at Southwell (3m, good) in June but very respectable sixth of 18 in competitive Cheltenham handicap hurdle (2m5f, soft) last month, after a break, and Nicky Henderson is evidently keen to switch him back to fences.

J: Freddie Gordon

T: Nicky Henderson

Good-ground maiden hurdle winner who made it 2-4 in this sphere when winning at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft) in April on second handicap start; beaten 11l when second of four on subsequent chase debut at Southwell (3m, good) in June but this lightly raced 7yo retains potential for his powerful stable.

J: Robert Dunne

T: Nicky Henderson

Lightly raced and has mixed record over hurdles since winning Irish point debut in January 2023; scored on handicap debut at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft; first run after wind surgery) in April and will be fine on the quicker surface; very unexposed at about 3m and switches to chasing with significant potential.
