Three wins over hurdles for former yards; put up a decent effort at Punchestown on second run back after a long layoff; one to consider with more to come. |

2-2 for new stable this spring, the latter win gained here (2m4f, good); should be fine back at 2m and latest 5lb rise does not look excessive; must be considered in current mood. |

10st 2lb |
Hasn't the best of win records (4-43 over hurdles), last win coming over 2m2f here in September 2023; good fourth over 2m5f here last month, but tailed off last time; 10lb out of the handicap. |

10st 2lb |
Returned to form with 2l fourth of 11 behind Looking Splendid at Kelso (2m5f, good) 11 days ago; however, it's over two years since this 10yo last won and he's even further out of the handicap this afternoon. |

Won twice here (including over C&D) in 2023 but this year's pointing form is uninspiring and he has struggled back over fences and hurdles in last three starts; mark is tumbling but he has plenty to prove. |

6th Jul 2023 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won off a reduced mark over C&D (soft) in April when in a new headgear combination (tongue-tie/hood) that was retained when he finished third off this 7lb higher mark the following month (good); just the tongue-tie worn this time but he has had wind surgery and this mark might yet be okay. |

Made his breakthrough at the eighth attempt when scoring off a reduced mark over C&D (soft; first-time hood) three weeks ago; 7lb higher here but he pulled clear with the runner-up last time and his confidence should be boosted after that success; respected. |

Pulled up on soft ground at Ayr last month but this race is much less competitive and the quicker surface ought to suit him better; made the frame on his previous three outings and has each-way claims at least. |

18th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
All of his three hurdle wins (2m/2m4f) came on good ground in the summer of 2020; very well treated on his old form but he's struggled in four runs for this yard and a big turnaround is needed. |

28th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |

Possible to make excuses for three outings from this yard (heavy ground in first two, hampered latest) but has been tailed off each time and urgently needs a return to something more positive. |

Well handicapped on form as recent as last April for Olly Murphy and heavy ground may not have suited on his first two runs for this yard; however, he's been tailed off each time and a major turnaround is required in first-time cheekpieces. |

27th Sep 2023 Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
6-6 over hurdles/fences for Iain Jardine this season, with most notable success coming from a long way off the pace in Summer Plate at Market Rasen (2m5f, soft); also very well suited by this track and Harry Cobden (aboard the last twice) keeps the ride for today's first start back with Claire O'Connell |

19th Aug 2023 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

Five wins from five starts since joining Iain Jardine, the first off 21lb lower over C&D (soft) and the latest the valuable Summer Plate over fences off 4lb lower at Market Rasen (2m5f, soft); should go very well again. |

22nd Jul 2023 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |

Ex-Irish mare who is 4-4 for new stable this year, alternating between hurdling and chasing; carries 5lb penalty for beating only two rivals at Perth (2m4f, soft) on Sunday and is 1lb out of the weights here but is evidently in prime form. |
