11st 11lb

Sole hurdles win came over a year ago at Clonmel (2m4f) off 111; tried several times in claiming hurdles this year, notably C&D second in May, reportedly found to have blood in nostrils last month when just fair fifth in Downpatrick handicap; has to be treated with some caution but down to a nice mark.

Mostly disappointing since winning off 14lb higher at Clonmel last October; better effort in claiming hurdle at Wexford latest; more on plate now back in handicap company.

Oh So Charming

10st 6lb

J: Kevin Healy

T: Declan Queally

Sole win over hurdles came in a Clonmel handicap last June off 111; has slumped in the ratings and failed to exploit her reduced mark (97) when fifth at Clonmel 13 days ago; however, he is closely matched with Redwood Queen on running in a claimer at Tramore last month.

Two wins last season, the first a dead-heat over C&D in July (good to firm); rather patchy form this season, best run when third at Pontefract in April (1m, good); a possible on second run back after wind op.

Had wind surgery (his third) since last run; form at Pontefract features a success last August (off 2lb higher; one of three wins under Charli Parker) and best effort this season; record of 0-19 when racing above Class 6 is the negative.

A dual 1m2f scorer in 2025; back to form when third of nine in 1m Pontefract handicap ten days ago so ought to be thereabouts eased 1lb.

Won twice on AW (once over C&D) earlier in the season; creditable series of efforts more recently and he shouldn't be too far away.

Dual 1m4f AW winner (once here) in early part of this year and placed on two of last three starts, more recently at Newcastle (1m4f) nine days ago; will be fine over this trip; probably won't be far away.

Both wins have been over this trip on AW and running consistently well on turf of late; no problems with the switch back to AW and he has more in his favour than most.

Verdict

Timewave is entitled to improve for his debut experience and this extra furlong, yet OH SO CHARMING did enough at Thirsk to get the vote. Star Start has had three races now but isn’t out of it.[Alistair Jones]
