Form & Verdict
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; his Ludlow run from off the pace was encouraging and he then won comfortably under a more forward ride at Southwell (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); carries a penalty but has clear claims.

Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) who has taken well to this discipline, winning two of his three starts since the tongue-tie went on, the latest in gritty fashion when penalised; has a double penalty but Tom Hutsby claims 10lb.

Form & Verdict
Won over 9.4f on the AW last September for Karl Burke and bought for 67,000gns at the sales; the hood could be a significant addition as he pulled way too hard when beaten 9l behind the favourite at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good).

J: Brendan Powell

T: Joe Tizzard

Fairly useful Flat racer who came second in two novice hurdles (one over C&D) in spring; well beaten on last month's handicap debut at Fontwell (2m1f, good), though, and his tendency to race too freely remains a worry.

Fairly useful Flat racer who came second in two novice hurdles for new stable in the spring, despite racing too freely; probably needs to improve on this handicap debut but that's possible.

Bought for £100,000 after winning a Haydock bumper for Don Cantillon; beaten a shade over 20l in two maiden hurdles (good to soft/good) but disappointing if he can't raise his game sooner or later.

0-4 over hurdles but posted sound effort when second of five on this month's handicap debut at Fontwell (2m3f, good), form that was boosted when winner followed up there on Tuesday; represents last year's winning stable and is open to improvement if aided by first-time cheekpieces.
