Runner-up in both bumpers; didn't live up to market expectations when a weakening third on last month's C&D hurdles debut (good to soft; 3-1 favourite, with stablemate Linalee unseating early); may strip fitter.

Triple Crown Ted

11st 8lb

J: Derek Fox

T: Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore

Beat Lance Les Des and Bertie's Ballet off 4lb lower at Kelso in February (2m, heavy) and he was confidently ridden out the back when second over C&D last time (soft), where a late mistake didn't help; strong suspicion that he more to offer and the yard, also represented by Caballo De Guerra, won this with a novice two years ago.

Has taken well to hurdles, recording his second win at Kelso (2m, heavy) on handicap debut last month with more in hand than the official margin suggests; should be hard to beat despite a 4lb rise.

Won over C&D (soft) in November on second hurdle start and showed improved form when fourth under a penalty in a warm novice at Ayr (2m, heavy); this unexposed 6yo could be on a workable mark on his handicap debut.

Closely matched with Triple Crown Ted on February's Kelso clash and this 7yo was good value for his win back in a maiden here last time on soft ground; progressive and quite likely on fair terms with the handicapper.

Returned from absence to finish third to Triple Crown Ted in C&D novice (soft) in November and took a step forward when again third over C&D (good to soft) last time; this lightly raced 7yo is open to further improvement and could give a good account on handicap debut.

Ability in bumpers - placed at Aintree and Bangor - but got no further than the first on last month's C&D hurdles debut (9-2); however, he's still one to be interested in today; one of two for Russell & Scudamore.

Point winner; showed a bit in novice hurdles in November 2024 but tailed off in a novice hurdle and pulled up in a handicap chase in two outings this season over four months apart; fitted with first-time cheekpieces back hurdling; plenty to prove at present.

Tailed off in a novice hurdle here in November when back from an absence and this is his first run since; however, he showed some ability in novice hurdles in November 2024 and this point winner could improve for the switch to fences; interesting contender on handicap debut.
