17th Apr 2022 Good 2m 4f 114y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Progressive novice; made all at Sandown two starts ago and, after his main market rival fell, ran out an easy winner over C&D two weeks ago (made most); 7lb rise may well not prevent him completing the hat-trick. |

3rd Apr 2022 Good 2m 4f 114y Class 3 |

Steadily progressive this season and made all at Sandown last month (runner-up has won since); that come on soft but his previous success was gained on good ground; 7lb higher but should figure strongly. |

Solid record in handicaps this season, including reappearance success at Chepstow in the autumn; good second there (2m3f, soft; now 3lb higher) last time, clear of the remainder; should go well again. |

3rd Mar 2022 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Placed in big-field handicap hurdles on first two starts this season (2m3f/2m6f) and last month's 33l defeat on chasing debut shouldn't be viewed harshly, given he was badly hampered in the early stages; sports cheekpieces and moves up in trip today; could still have a good future over fences. |

7th 4 |
2nd Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Relatively low-mileage 7yo; made the frame in big-field handicap hurdles at Chepstow (2m3f) and Uttoxeter (2m6f) last two starts; bred to be at least as good over fences, and an interesting contender on today's chasing debut for an in-form yard. |

Came good at Chepstow (2m3f, good) in March, his sixth start over hurdles, and made pleasing seasonal reappearance when second in another big-field handicap over that C&D in October; moves up in trip today and could easily have more to offer; respected. |

11th Jan 2022 Heavy 2m 5f 137y Class 5 |

Handles most ground; below best over 3m last month but is normally consistent and he ran into a major improver when runner-up over C&D in November; still a maiden though and has been on much the same mark for over a year. |

10st 12lb |
Maiden; not at his best over 2m5f on last two starts (first-time cheekpieces latest, discarded here) but was the only one to give a subsequent good winner a workout at Doncaster in January (3m, good to soft) and a return to that form would make him worth considering. |

3rd 7 |
12th Mar 2022 Soft 2m 5f 163y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Placed on five of his last six starts, most recently when second over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago; now 0-22 over hurdles and the refitted cheekpieces are of uncertain benefit (tailed off when they were used once last spring) but there's a good chance he'll be on the premises again. |

Made a successful return to chasing when winning at Huntingdon in January (2m7f, soft, first-time cheekpieces), but lesser run in same headgear at Market Rasen last time; visor back on but a bit to prove. |
3/1 |

4th 5 |
8th Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Two-time hurdle winner (good/soft) who won in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on last month's chase debut at Huntingdon (2m7f, soft); did it nicely and a 5lb rise may not be enough to prevent a follow up. |
3/1 |

Dual hurdle winner with and without headgear, at 2m4f (good) and 2m5f (soft) but not obviously ahead of his mark this winter and improvement needed on chase debut; cheekpieces this time. |

8th Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Tailed off at Wincanton last month on his first run since wind surgery but was reportedly unsuited by the soft (heavy in places) ground; fair fourth over this C&D (good) previously and he might not be far away if today's surface is in his favour. |
8/1 |

8th Jan 2022 Soft 1m 7f 50y Class 5 |

1m6f winner on the Flat for Richard Hannon; unplaced all five starts over hurdles but November's fourth of nine at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) was a step in the right direction and he's since had wind surgery; not discounted in a tongue-strap, especially if strong in the market. |

11st 12lb |
Travelled well before fading when upped in trip on last month's handicap debut at Chepstow (2m3f, good); today's shorter trip could be a plus and he has potential off his current mark based on his Flat ability. |

2m4f hurdle winner (good to soft) last May but has a very mixed record since and she's been pulled up over fences and hurdles in her last two starts; still 2lb higher than for her win and has plenty to prove in new headgear back in this sphere. |
9/2 |

22nd Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Hurdle win at 2m4f (good to soft) last May; two modest efforts followed and although only just touched off back over fences at Ffos Las in November (2m5f, soft) she was pulled up next time; risky back hurdling. |
16/1 |

12th Feb 2022 Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Won over hurdles last spring and lost out only by a short head over fences at Ffos Las (2m5f, soft; well clear of third) in November; major player if judged on that evidence but was pulled up when last seen and is not one to rely upon heavily. |

Placed in Class 5 handicap at Southwell (2m4f, good) for Neil Mulholland in March but was sold for £2,200 after two disappointing performances; has a good chance on the figures here but needs to have been perked up by the change of regime. |

Didn't progress after last spring's win at Chepstow (2m3f, good) but is now 1lb below that mark, and his recent third behind Wetanwindy here (2m4f, good to soft) was a good effort; no surprise if he features. |

Seems badly to have lost his way this year; hinted at possible return to form when third (albeit well held in the end) in first-time visor here (2m, good) this month but his stamina for today's trip is not assured and he remains a risky option. |

Maiden under both codes but he has run well on occasions this year on the Flat and he was twice runner-up over hurdles before struggling in a couple of handicaps (tongue-tie/blinkers); cheekpieces, which have helped on the Flat, could make a difference back jumping. |
13/2 |
