J: Ben Jones

T: Philip Hobbs & Johnson White

Seems versatile as regards ground; highly progressive sort whose overall record is 7-9; has looked best over hurdles when making the running and impressively defied a big penalty at Newbury for his most recent success; good second in the Supreme at Cheltenham, despite a final-flight error and getting involved in some bumping on the run-in (bare form can be marked up); the pick on ratings.

Has seemed best over hurdles when making the running and met his sole defeat when those tactics weren't employed; impressively defied a big penalty at Newbury (2m, heavy) most recently, taking record in this sphere to 3-4 and overall strike-rate to 7-8, as well as achieving a very notable RPR; related to a Cheltenham Festival winner for his yard; worth his place at this level and should make a bold bid.

Acts on soft ground; flopped at Sandown returned to Listed level but progressive and unbeaten otherwise; rebounded in emphatic fashion over C&D last time, taking Newbury record to 2-2; easily beat Kadastral at Chepstow in the autumn; leading contender, even with a 10lb penalty.

J: Ben Jones

T: Philip Hobbs & Johnson White

Listed winner at Newbury in final bumper start; disappointing favourite returned to that grade at Sandown (second hurdles attempt) most recently, losing his unbeaten status, but can be given a chance to rebound from that sole blip on an otherwise progressive record; clear pick on the figures back down in class.

Bought for £110,000 after beating Great Fleet in an Irish point; the front two were clear when winning at Chepstow and he then defied a penalty with ease at Exeter (again soft), albeit at the expense of two outsiders; has delivered useful RPRs and looks a strong contender.
