9st 10lb

J: Charles Bishop

T: Warren Greatrex

Acts on good and heavy ground; won off 2lb lower over C&D for Charlie Johnston last autumn and he ran well over hurdles last month, on his second run for current yard; seems tactically versatile and he's in the mix off a workable mark back on the Flat.

J: Harry Bannister

T: Warren Greatrex

Useful on the Flat for Charlie Johnston, proving reliable and winning 2m handicap at Goodwood (heavy) last autumn (sold for 165,000gns soon after); 9-2, weakened to finish a well-held sixth of ten in Ascot juvenile (2m, soft) on hurdle debut in January; should be capable of a lot better in this sphere.

J: Harry Bannister

T: Warren Greatrex

Not far off useful on the Flat for Charlie Johnston, proving reliable and winning 2m handicap at Goodwood (heavy) last autumn; changed hands for 165,000gns in October; likely to be suited by longer distances in due course but he commands respect on his hurdling debut even so.

9st 3lb

J: Hollie Doyle

T: Charlie Johnston

Reliable sort on varied ground, though he opened his account only when upped to 2m at Goodwood (heavy) one month ago, after plenty of minor honours; creditable fourth over 2m2f at Musselburgh 12 days later, albeit as 11-10 favourite; should be seriously involved.

J: Joe Fanning

T: Charlie Johnston

Opened his account in Goodwood contest last week when attempting 2m for the first time; may build on that success and show additional progress upped further in distance; respected.
