Form & Verdict
Dual hurdle winner for Philip Rothwell in Ireland last season (2m/2m1f) and close third behind Turpin Gold on recent stable debut at Plumpton (2m, good); swaps usual cheekpieces for a first-time visor and may still have a bigger run in him for his new trainer.

Registered a first Flat win when scoring over C&D in January and it was a creditable effort when chasing home St Faz at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) six days ago; work to do if he's to turn the tables but still one of the more likely ones.

Form & Verdict
Returned from long absence with front-running success on stable debut at Plumpton (2m, good) a fortnight ago; seemed to enjoy the run of the race that day and went up 3lb but remains very well handicapped on older form.

Form & Verdict
Useful on the Flat; unable to land a significant blow in three novice/maiden hurdles for new stable this spring but it will be interesting to see whether more of his Flat ability comes to the fore in handicap hurdles.

Has improved since handicapping, including a win at Stratford (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie) last month; may not have quite seen out the trip when third of seven there (2m3f, good to firm) 12 days ago, but very much of interest back at this distance; 1lb well in.
