11st 7lb

J: Kevin Brogan

T: Toby Lawes

Hurdle/chase winner for Brian Ellison; decent second in Newbury chase on stable debut (2m4f, good to soft) but well beaten at Southwell last time (3m, good); has run well at 3m; likely to be sharper for the run following a break.

J: Harry Bannister

T: Toby Lawes

Hurdle/chase winner for Brian Ellison; no match for a progressive winner at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) but that was a positive start for this yard; unreliable in the past but if holding his form he could be the answer.

J: Kevin Brogan

T: Toby Lawes

9yo who is not easy to predict but he was a good second over hurdles at Doncaster (3m, good) in January, on his final run for Brian Ellison; now returns to fences but he won in this sphere (2m5f, soft) last winter and could be dangerous for new yard.

Back to form in first-time blinkers (retained since) when close third over 3m on good to soft at Ayr in November; backward steps at Cheltenham and Catterick since, however.
