Last five defeats have been over fences when he had jumping issues; novice winner over hurdles and has dipped to a career-low mark; not the most solid option here but commands some respect.

22nd Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 5y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Creditable second in first-time cheekpieces at Wetherby (3m, good) in February and competes off 4lb lower mark here but there have been jumping issues in his other three chases and he comes with risk. |
7/1 |

31st Mar 2023 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Soft-ground novice hurdle winner who ran well when runner-up over C&D (good) last month on his second chase start; has potential in this sphere if and when his jumping comes good, but that wasn't the case when soundly beaten here (2m5f, good) last time. |

5 yo Filly
OR: 88
Placed in her first two handicaps and then got off the mark under a positive ride at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good); returns off a very fair 4lb higher mark, and perhaps a greater concern would be that good ground seems to suit her well.

21st Nov 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Split two next-time winners (Boleyn Boy third) when second in an identical C&D contest in June (good), and her own Uttoxeter success 13 days later rates similar form; recent return second is as close as she's ever gone on ground easier than good, and she's not hard to shortlist. |

0-8 but placed in both her handicaps and was keeping on over this far at Fakenham (good) two weeks ago; up to winning races off this mark and cheekpieces are added. |

OR: 89
Seemingly better for the tongue-tie when a well-backed winner from 4lb out of the weights on stable debut at Stratford (2m6f, good) and made the most of being 4lb lower at Hereford (2m5f, good to firm); had to dig pretty deep the last time and he's now 9lb higher, while softer ground is a grey area.

held up in rear but in touch with leaders, headway after 9th, hit 3 out, not clear run and switched left when on turn before 2 out, went third but not fluent last, soon no extra |

OR: 88
Hasn't offered a great deal in four hurdle starts (one handicap) since returning from a year out but those were over trips from 2m to 2m2f and this 3m point winner is ready for this stiffer stamina test; respected.

C&D winner in March and followed that with a near miss at Southwell (off 2lb lower); was perhaps ready for a break when off colour the last time and could be a factor.

11st 2lb |
Not quite at her best on final run last season and down the field on recent reappearance; however, she may have needed that latest outing and a case can be made on her good form in the first half of the spring. |

Won three times over hurdles last season for Gary Moore (same owners); his latest campaign never went to plan but he's back on a good mark and his new trainer had a stable debutant win here on Monday; stays this far; goes in a new headgear combination; a lively one.

4th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Triple hurdle winner last season, most recently off 1lb higher mark over C&D (good to soft) last February, but is yet to hit top gear this term and was very disappointing favourite when returned to this C&D in January. |
