Behind The Street when fourth at Chepstow two starts ago but off the mark when readily justifying favouritism over C&D (soft) 11 days ago; 7lb higher but very useful 10lb claimer more than negates that; strong traveller who looks likely to be in the mix. |

Maiden; in the frame in five of six hurdling starts and runner-up to a subsequent winner two starts ago; every chance on that effort but didn't really build on it when fourth at Chepstow 12 days ago. |

25th May 2022 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Goes best for Josh Newman, the partnership adding a 3m1f handicap hurdle success here earlier this month (good; RPR 116; sixth has won since) to a pair of soft-ground pointing successes in 2020; back up 6lb in a slightly higher banded race, but case strong once more. |

Winning pointer who has yet to score in 13 runs over hurdles; sound efforts with cheekpieces on last two starts, conditions suit and has an each-way chance. |

11st 12lb |
Well held when third on handicap debut here (2m3f, soft) in February but her second here (2m5f, good to soft) two starts ago was a promising effort and she's of interest now back on better ground and tried over new trip. |

3rd 8 |
16th Feb 2022 Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Couldn't handle going left-handed at Stratford two starts ago but runner-up in her other two hurdling efforts, the latest over 2m5f+ here last month; that form nothing special and more required on handicap debut. |
7/1 |

2nd 3 |
4th Jan 2022 Good To Soft 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |

Bumper winner; wasn't always fluent when beaten by a nose in a small-field affair on hurdles debut at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) before a lacklustre effort at Stratford (hung right and pulled up); clearly capable when firing on all cylinders and shouldn't write off just yet. |

10th Apr 2022 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Well beaten on handicap debut at Hereford in February but that was his first encounter with soft ground and the first-time hood may help him settle better today; placed in two maiden hurdles (2m4f, good/good to soft) late last year and this lightly raced 6yo could have a part to play. |

16th Feb 2022 Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |

Maiden; gradually getting closer over hurdles and runner-up at Musselburgh last month; that was an uncompetitive novice event and probably needs improvement on handicap debut, although that is more than possible. |

Has threatened more than he has produced so far over hurdles; saw out the race better at Exeter two weeks ago and application of cheekpieces could offer some help; usually travels well in his races. |

2nd Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Winner of 1m3f French bumper in 2020; showed early promise over hurdles but a skewed jump two out when travelling well on handicap debut here in November cost him dear (2m, good); slight query about this extra distance but is still one of the more likely ones. |

Wind surgery, tongue tied and down to his shortest trip when close second of 13 on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) in January, making most; creditable third in the 4.50 Wincanton yesterday over 2m5f but whether he turns out again so quickly remains to be seen. |

Point runner-up who has been generally progressive over hurdles and made it sixth time lucky in this sphere when justifying support in Chepstow maiden (2m, good) last month; hit with 4lb rise for that but he stayed on well to forge clear and is strongly respected back in a 2m3f handicap. |

Just 1-14 over hurdles but the win was gained over C&D (good to soft; last May) and she returns here after a good effort in defeat at Hereford (2m5f, soft) two weeks ago; fine on good ground; respected. |

Showed staying qualities to win over this trip at Stratford (good to soft) last May and she might have needed the run after a break when 6l fourth of 12 over C&D two weeks ago; far more persuasive than most. |

Had dropped a few pounds when showing staying qualities to win over 2m6f at Stratford (good to soft) last May but was beaten a long way the following month; soft ground probably not ideal on return from layoff. |
