10st 4lb

T: Sam Thomas

Won in the tongue-tie/visor at Bangor and Hereford (on good over 2m7f/3m2f) in space of a week this autumn in his first two handicaps; tailed off at 4-9, however, when blinkers were tried in hat-trick bid four weeks ago (good to soft); the visor returns, so maybe that can be the difference.

J: Mr Harvey Barfoot-Saunt

T: Sam Thomas

Has gone 2-2 in a tongue-tie/visor combination, winning by 2l at Bangor and by a similar margin when unpenalised at Hereford (3m1f, good); a 6lb rise should be manageable in this handicap that lacks any depth, provided he takes to new blinkers.

T: Sam Thomas

Twice beaten at short odds when trained by Nicky Henderson but is 2-2 since joining his bang-in-form stable, most recently in a run-of-the-mill event at Hereford (3m1f, good) 19 days ago; in much deeper here but he's bred to be useful and is clearly on the up; commands serious respect.

Won a bumper in these colours for Nicky Henderson; making handicap/stable debut and in these aids for the first time when a workmanlike 2l winner last week at Bangor (2m7f, good); has no penalty for that so clear claims if in the same form this afternoon.

T: Sam Thomas

Course bumper winner for Nicky Henderson in April 2024 (soft ground); 0-4 over hurdles for that stable last season, signing off with defeat at odds of 4-11 in 2m7f Uttoxeter maiden won by Stone's Throw in March; however, he sports a first-time tongue-tie and visor for this stable/handicap debut and it will be very interesting to see what Sam Thomas can do with him.
