Form & Verdict

Highly talented hurdler who finished fourth off topweight in the Martin Pipe Handicap at the Cheltenham Festival (2m4f, soft) in March; didn't jump with fluency on his chase debut at Newton Abbot (2m5f, heavy) last month but still ran well to finish a close second of three; the first-time cheekpieces may help his jumping, and this looks a good opportunity.

Might I

11st 12lb

J: Lorcan Murtagh

T: Harry Fry

Half-brother to 2022 Cheltenham Festival winner and 2023 Gold Cup contender Stattler; showed very useful form as a novice hurdler last term, notably second in Grade 1 at Aintree (good to soft) on sole 2m4f attempt; interesting returned to this distance, on the back of his good effort in 2m1f handicap here (neck second on soft ground) seven weeks ago; tongue-tie fitted.

Form & Verdict

On hurdle form he has plenty to find with Might I; however, he was still useful in that sphere (on good and soft going) and it's possible he'll improve for the switch to fences; stable is in fine form and, with Might I having not jumped well on last month's chase debut, he's not without hope today.
