100-1 winner in a 3m1f handicap hurdle at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) last November off 7lb higher; reverted to lesser shows since but, wearing cheekpieces first time, he did make some late progress from right out the back when fifth of nine at Huntingdon (3m) last time on a rare run over fences; not entirely dismissed.

Began her handicap career with two respectable runs at Plumpton in the autumn (both 3m1f, good to soft) but she was pulled up at Wincanton in her final run last year; has something to prove again after a break and she hasn't looked entirely straightforward; hood added.
