J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Grand servant to the yard with 11 hurdles wins; did what he's been doing for years by bouncing back to exploit a falling mark on his favoured testing ground at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) in January; most tenacious and impossible to dismiss off 3lb higher.

Long in the tooth now and not the force of old but was nudged up only 1lb for last month's clear second in refitted cheekpieces at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) and ought to be better suited by this slower ground.

Snapped a losing run in February (when cheekpieces returned) but has become hard to predict now well into the veteran stage; however, the headgear returns after none has been worn in his last three races and that offers hope.

Good servant for the stable over the years (ten wins); back on workable mark now and will be favoured by the recent rain but not firing on all cylinders lately and the tongue-tie/cheekpieces (worn for last two wins) are missing again today.
