Four-time winner over hurdles but inconsistency has crept in, with his solid third in new cheekpieces at Market Rasen (2m7f, good) flanked by lesser efforts; others safer.

4-20 over hurdles, with all the wins on good ground; close third in first-time cheekpieces at Market Rasen (2m7f, good; several flights omitted) last month and still unexposed over staying trips but forecast rain dents his appeal.

Form & Verdict
Made a winning handicap debut at Hereford (2m4f, good; 4lb lower) but only a fair third there later in February and then ran poorly on the Flat at Bath; needs to refind that winning form and these conditions will help.

J: Ben Poste

T: Harriet Dickin

A dual hurdle winner for Milton Harris; well beaten on the Flat on first two starts for this stable in June and only made a satisfactory start to his chasing career when a well-held third at Plumpton (2m1f, good; second has won since) last month; has a fitness edge over some and not ruled out with that experience behind him, off 5lb lower.

9st 3lb

J: Callum Hutchinson

T: Harriet Dickin

Unraced beyond 1m4f on Flat but has scored over 2m and 2m4f as a hurdler; his significant Flat form was in 2022 and he was tailed off on recent return to Flat for new yard after eight months off; others have more pressing claims.

OR: 111

Form & Verdict
Soft ground was against him on the Flat three weeks ago; looked good on his hurdling debut at Doncaster in February and highly tried in the meantime, still in front when falling three out in a Grade 2 at Kempton and then finding Grade 1 company too hot to handle at Aintree; this mark might be okay now switched to handicaps.

Not gone on from his Southwell success (16.5f, AW) in December, though front-running may not have suited him at Lingfield (2m, AW) last time; only seen on Flat turf once since August 2022, but he does act on it (2-8); interesting, especially if taking to the first-time cheekpieces.

J: Cieren Fallon

T: B F Brookhouse

Hit a personal best with his comfortable win at Southwell (2m, Tapeta) in December and he had an excuse when dropped back to 1m3f there the following month; can be a bit hit-and-miss but he still looks feasibly treated and has possibilities back up in trip.

Form & Verdict
0-16 on the Flat but wasn't far away in a 1m4f handicap earlier this month after 184 days off; both hurdle wins came at Stratford (on good) and he's 10lb higher than for the latest, which was no doubt a factor in his well-held sixth at Market Rasen.
