Form & Verdict
He needs to jump with greater fluency than when sixth of nine on last month's chase debut at Wetherby; however, in the circumstances it was a fair performance and the return of cheekpieces may be a major plus, as this lightly raced 5yo showed improvement in such headgear in the spring; considered.

Half-brother to top-class Protektorat; surprise withdrawal from last weekend's bet365 Gold Cup due to ground, having made notable progress before that on similar good ground in 3m Ascot handicaps, winning twice including latest in premier handicap in February; potentially a big player.

Form & Verdict
Jumped to the left on occasions and lacked fluency when tailed off on chase debut at Ludlow three weeks ago, which was also his first crack at 3m; won twice over hurdles in the spring and shouldn't be written off, but he goes right-handed again today and it's hard to be confident after last time.

Peak hurdling RPRs around Hereford and Kempton bode well with another flat right-hander awaiting him; last-time success over 2m5f at the latter venue is the furthest he's gone so far, and dual-purpose pedigree isn't abundant with stayers, but he'd be unfazed by a dryout.

Form & Verdict
0-5 and inconsistent over fences; however, this two-time good-ground hurdle winner reappeared with a fair fourth at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) last month and the form of that handicap chase is working out nicely; could be sharper for that run, and the first-time cheekpieces; respected.

Useful in his prime for Henry Daly but left that yard on a low note; soundly beaten in chases on his first two starts for this stable but took a step back in the right direction returned to hurdles in first-time blinkers when rallying third of eight over the extended 2m4f at Plumpton (good to soft) 23 days ago; needs to prove he can build on that with the blinkers left off in favour of refitted cheekpieces.

Useful in his prime but left Henry Daly after a poor run over fences in February 2025 and was soundly beaten in two chases for this stable towards end of last year; needs combination of new headgear and return to hurdling to rekindle his enthusiasm.

Ex-Henry Daly; quite a useful novice hurdler but didn't progress; sound run on chase debut in October 2023 but rather disappointing since; bit to prove after a break on stable debut.
