Form & Verdict
Unexposed under rules and proved his stamina when winning at Stratford (3m4f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in April last year; ran with credit on his return from 260 days off when third of ten at Huntingdon (3m, good) last month and now 1lb lower, but soft ground or worse would pose a question.

2-9 over fences, the latter win gained by 12l at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) in November; showed some signs of temperament when below that form there in January and is not without risk on this first start for 12 weeks.

Form & Verdict
1-11 in Irish points and showed little in three starts over hurdles after joining this yard, but made an immediate impact over regulation fences when beating Fiston Du Mou by 2l to score over C&D (soft) last month; 2lb worse off but remains open to improvement in this discipline and no surprise were he to follow up.

Form & Verdict
3-7 around here including this race from 19lb lower four years ago, though he is just 7lb higher than when winning easily over C&D (heavy) in April; conditions likely to be ideal on this return from seven months off, but his record fresh does sound a note of caution (all eight wins when returning to the track after 30 days or less).

C&D winner (soft) just over a year ago and narrowly beat a hot favourite in a match at Catterick (3m1f, good) in February; was having his second start back from a lengthy absence when beaten 2l into second of eight behind Ballylinch back here (soft) last time; 2lb better off and shouldn't be far away again.

Form & Verdict
Lost his way after winning over hurdles in Ireland in the summer of 2021 and although second of seven on stable debut at Southwell (3m2f, good) in September, still finished 31l behind the winner; returns from another ten weeks off and soft ground remains a question mark; stable also runs Roxboro Road.

Form & Verdict
Completed a hat-trick over hurdles/fences for Ben Haslam in the spring of 2021, but it's been hard going since despite a plummeting mark; makes his debut for his new yard having been picked up for £4,000 in September and has plenty to prove.
