Form & Verdict
Having had wind surgery he capitalised on a reduced mark at Hereford (2m3f, good) last Monday; he was snapping a long losing sequence and isn't guaranteed to back up that latest performance, but he did it nicely and escapes a penalty today; Lewis Saunders retains the ride; key player.

J: Rian Corcoran

T: Cynthia Woods

Regressive 11yo who has not won since 2024; ran well for a long way when fourth (well held in the end) over C&D (good) last month, after a break, and might come on for the outing but his overcome profile remains unconvincing.

Down the field at Cheltenham and over C&D on her last two starts in the spring; however, this two-time course winner may be able to get back on track following a break, and she's not ruled out.

Claims on March's Newcastle third (2m4f, good to soft), but cosmetically respectable form figures this year disguise one or two heavy defeats, this trip as much the issue as her jumping left at Fakenham latest.

Slightly disappointing at Southwell 12 days ago and now 0-6 over fences but her close third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) was a pretty good effort and she has possibilities here if stamina holds out on first venture beyond about 2m5f.

Has been chasing and won around Hereford in November (3m1f, good; won on soft), despite jumping out to her left; repeated the dose when only fourth there last month; returns to hurdling off a useful mark (without taking into account Murray Dodd's claim) and she's won twice in this discipline.

Form & Verdict
He's on a reduced mark but was soundly beaten more often than not in various disciplines in 2023, and he suffered a heavy defeat on the AW last month when back from an absence; needs to turn things around.

His remote third at Beverley (2m) is readily forgiven when the ground was heavy and he was returning from an absence of 527 days; however, he's a 9yo now and looks vulnerable.
