11st 1lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who returned from break with good second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last month; has to take a 4lb rise on the chin but can play a leading role here if suited by the forecast faster ground (unraced on anything quicker than good to soft). |

10st 5lb |
Showed promise in Irish points but he struggled in first three hurdle runs and was only fifth of 11 on handicap debut over C&D (heavy; tongue-tie added) in January; still has potential but he needs to raise his game after a break. |

0-17 over hurdles but scores good marks for his consistency this season, having made the frame on all four starts (2m-2m4f, good); ought to be on the premises again.

Won four times on AW in October-February (1m6f-2m) and was close second at Stratford (2m2f, good) when back over hurdles in July; likely to be suited by today's longer trip and to be right in the thick of things again.

Good spell on AW (won four times) until form dipped the last twice; 2-2 over C&D, including a success in this race two years ago, and looks interesting back here for the return to hurdling. |

Excellent run of form since returning to the AW in October but in Class 6s and he was only fifth here last time tried in a Class 5; may be found wanting once more. |

Dropped out tamely after making the running at Market Rasen this month but that run came after a 195-day absence and he's now back on the same mark as for last summer's 5l win over C&D (good); not ruled out. |

Unexposed 5yo who was only beaten about 6l when keeping-on fourth on handicap debut at Stratford (2m2f, good to firm) in July; that was his first start since December and he could easily have more to offer; hood removed after one use; interesting.

Will need to return to the form he showed when fourth in a Ludlow maiden (2m5f) and that was on soft ground; nowhere near as good since and a tongue-tie is added, which may help matters. |

27th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |

Beginning to look a hard horse to predict but he's only 3lb higher than for his 2m2f good-ground win here in June, since when he's been tailed off; couldn't back with confidence but nor rule him out. |

Tongue tied for both hurdle wins, most recently at Stratford (2m2f, good) in June off 5lb lower; well beaten since from out of the weights in Jersey; good chance he can bounce back but others appeal more. |

17th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Has never won after breaks of over 30 days, so this quick return after two Flat spins for current handler last month rates a plus; sometime tendency to pull too hard very much back on that recent evidence, however. |

Placed in bumpers in 2022 and second at Stratford (2m, good to soft) in April 2023; however, pulled up last May on final outing for Fergal O'Brien and, after wind surgery in February, the same happened when 50-1 for new yard in April; cheekpieces (tried once) return and this is her handicap debut. |

Placed in bumpers in 2022 and second at Stratford (2m, good to soft) in April 2023; pulled up last May on latest outing and has left Fergal O'Brien; had wind surgery in February; even on best form, this looks a stiff task. |
