First two wins were on the AW; raced freely on comeback but got a march on his rivals back at Windsor last time (1m, good to firm) and held on nicely; 4lb rise to deal with but he's fresh for this time of year.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Brian Toomey

Pulled up on hurdle debut when last seen but he's a dual AW winner who is well handicapped on his second at Doncaster (1m, good) last summer; has run well when fresh in the past and he needs watching in market on reappearance; refused to enter stalls in last intended start.

Sole success came in a Nottingham maiden in 2024 when trained by David Evans; switched yards this year and best run since when runner-up at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) 11 days ago; Billy Loughnane rides for the first time and he should be thereabouts.

Lightly raced gelding who hasn't progressed from his 5f 2yo success, including in three outings between 7f and 1m for Ian Williams this year; this is a drop in grade but would need to see market support to consider.
