11st 6lb

J: Jamie Hamilton

T: Mark Walford

Flat winner who is 0-15 over hurdles, though does have placed form off this mark; it wasn't too bad a run 19 days ago at Market Rasen.

11st 11lb

J: Jamie Hamilton

T: Mark Walford

0-14 over hurdles, and C&D second in January (good to soft) was the fourth time he's been beaten under a length in this sphere; not obviously ungenuine for all that, however, and he'll likely be just right for this after a couple of recent Flat spins; no ground concerns.

J: Oisin Orr

T: Mark Walford

Modest maiden hurdler who returned to the Flat following 20-month absence when seventh of nine at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) 13 days ago; needs to come down the weights.

T: Mark Walford

Modest maiden hurdler since last Flat attempt in 2024; gained sole success on AW early that year; no guarantees that he's worth current mark returned to this code.

J: Harry Cobden

T: Mark Walford

Placed for previous stable; fell on debut for this one but gave the favourite a fright at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft; 3lb lower) and was clear of the third; unraced on soft ground so that's the concern; cheekpieces added.

6/4
