Came good over hurdles at sixth attempt, in Class 3 Market Rasen handicap (2m4f, good) in July, and did not need to be at her best to follow up in C&D novice (good) last month; versatile regarding ground but others in this line-up may have more potential.

Won readily over 2m here in July, his second hurdling start, and ran well in defeat behind Letterston Lily when upped to 2m4f here last month; probably still has more to offer but is not yet proven on ground slower than good and others in this line-up have more compelling form.

Point/bumper winner who was not disgraced in Grade 1 novice on hurdle debut at Punchestown (3m, good to yielding) in May; well below that form on both subsequent hurdling starts and his recent Flat form is also uninspiring but he remains very unexposed, and his Irish stable is always feared in valuable Britsh races; sports first-time cheekpieces for handicap debut.
