Form & Verdict

Useful hurdler when on song but made several jumping errors when well-held third on chasing debut over C&D in 2022 and struggled to get competitive when given another crack at chasing this spring; Paul Nicholls is persisting with him over fences but others in this line-up look much less risky; sports first-time cheekpieces.

J: Lorcan Williams

T: Paul Nicholls

Made several jumping errors when well-held third on chasing debut in 2022 and was quickly reverted to hurdling; useful in that sphere when on song and will be suited by today's trip/ground but his tendency to race too freely remains a concern, and he's a risky option on this second attempt over fences.

9 yo Mare

OR: 115

Form & Verdict

2-5 over hurdles, with both wins gained from the front at Warwick (2m, good; maiden/handicap) in May; slightly disappointing when last in action and her tendency to race too freely remains a nagging concern but her winning Irish point debut in 2020 bodes well for her chasing prospects; cheekpieces fitted for first time.

Low-mileage 9yo mare who struck form and made all twice against own sex at Warwick (2m, good) last month, latterly on handicap debut; has a bit more on her plate here but might still be improving; respected.

Point/bumper winner who got off the mark on third start over hurdles when winning a C&D maiden by 14l this month (good; odds-on favourite bled); stiffer task but an interesting runner on handicap debut.

Form & Verdict

Tends to race too freely but is 5-9 over hurdles, the latest win gained in pretty good style here (2m2f, good) in June; probably still has more to offer in that sphere but connections are evidently keen to switch her to fences; big player.

Quickly developed into useful novice in early part of last season, winning four times (twice here) at around 2m on good/good to soft; about 23l behind Mermaids Cave when last of seven on handicap debut at Cartmel (2m1f, good to soft) three weeks ago but that run came after a layoff, and a last-flight jumping error significantly extended her margin of defeat.
