Out of a well-connected mare; unable to justify strong market support when fourth of six in slowly run contest at Warwick (good) last month but is evidently thought capable of much better.

Left Irish point debut behind when winning on heavy ground in October and changed hands for £155,000 the following month; however, he was then tailed off in similar conditions on bumper debut at Stratford (4-1) two months ago; needs to get back on track.

Two hurdle wins since May and he squeezed in a successful chase debut at Worcester (2m7f, good) in between; latest third over hurdles here (about 2m7f, good) was a solid effort last Tuesday and he's a firm candidate again; due to go up 1lb.

Bids for a four-timer after two wins over hurdles and a chase success in between; had nothing in hand last time at Worcester (2m7f, good) and he'll need another career best off 4lb higher.

Low-mileage 7yo is thriving of late and he readily followed up his hurdling success at Huntingdon (3m1f, good to firm) in 2m7f handicap chase here (good) two weeks ago; up 8lb but still looks the one to beat back hurdling.

Some promise at Kempton (good to soft; 28-1) on debut but failed by a long way to repeat the form at Ludlow (good; 9-1; well beaten) five weeks later; hard to support with confidence after the second run.

Maiden hurdler who was never that threatening in handicaps but his breeding offers plenty of hope that he'll do better over fences and over this longer distance; tongue-tie added; hard to dismiss.
