Form & Verdict
Pretty useful on Flat to win a 6f novice on heavy as 2yo but yet to shine in handicaps, including four runs for new yard; tried tongue-tie and blinkers recently; unraced beyond 7f on Flat and whether the switch to hurdling is his thing remains to be seen.

Useful on testing ground on the Flat early in career and this 4yo has tapped back into that promise over hurdles this spring, winning a maiden at Hereford (2m, good) in April on his second stable start and following up in a C&D novice (good); trainer won this with Clearance, after whom this race is named, in 2022 and 2024; intriguing candidate back in a handicap.

6f winner for Ralph Beckett and came good at the sixth attempt over hurdles with a clearcut win at Hereford (2m, good; hood removed); this 4yo now carries a penalty but has less to prove than most of these.

Not that consistent on Flat but he nevertheless won four 1m4f/1m6f handicaps in April-July and showed pretty useful form; has a cracking chance on this hurdling debut assuming he can jump.

The last of four Flat wins was over this trip at Sandown last summer (good; 5lb lower); has since racked up a solid sequence over hurdles; in form, consistent and respected.

Useful four-time Flat winner at up to 1m6f; the penalty contributed to his undoing at Stratford last time (2m2f, soft) but he's proving consistent over hurdles and won't mind getting back on less testing ground; can lead.

Won four times on the Flat up to 1m6f and got off the mark over hurdles on his second start at Warwick (2m, good) in November; has continued to run well since, running his best race when third in a Listed contest at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in January; should have no issues with the step up in trip and sets the standard.

Form & Verdict
7f AW winner for the Coles in May but the form has not been repeated and others in this line-up were far better on the Flat; has some stamina in her pedigree but never went beyond 1m on Flat and tailed off on hurdling debut at Cartmel (28-1) in August.

With Paul and Oliver Cole when a comfortable winner at Chelmsford (7f, Class 6; 5-2 favourite) last May; poor showings in five starts - 6f Flat to 2m1f hurdle - for this trainer; no reason to envisage a change of headgear working the oracle.

Form & Verdict
By a sprinter but dam was a smart 2m-2m4f hurdle winner and this 3yo took minor honours at up to 1m4f as a consistent, fair maiden on the Flat; changed hands and left Richard Hannon since latest start (August); cheekpieces are given a go; she could plausibly make a hurdler.
