Form & Verdict
Surpassed hurdle form at the first time of asking over fences when comfortably seeing off a next-time-out scorer at Chepstow (2m3f, good) on reappearance last month, impressing with his jumping in the home straight; 8lb rise does not look enough to stop him with further improvement very much on the cards.

Pair of 2m handicap hurdles wins last season, the latter here in March; bred to make a chaser and his stable has had a productive time in the last couple of months.

Form & Verdict
Bar a blip on soft ground he progressed nicely over hurdles last season, culminating with a 2m4f Hexham handicap success (good to soft) in April; chased home the quite useful Arizona Cardinal in a point in Ireland at the start of his career; type to do well over fences but his peak fitness does have to be taken on trust.

Moved to this yard last season and won three in a row towards the end of last year (2m4f/3m, good to soft/soft); disappointing subsequently but perhaps a break will have helped and he's down to a handy mark; interesting to see how he goes in the betting.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Irish 6yo who built upon his pleasing stable debut when winning a Hexham handicap hurdle (2m4f, good to soft) in refitted cheekpieces in September; faded into a below-form fifth over 3m at Aintree since and now drops back in trip for his chase debut (pulled up sole point; East Street second).

Narrow winner at Carlisle in April (2m3.5f, good; second had won two previous races); has not fared quite as well since, including with a visor tried at Uttoxeter last time; regular cheekpieces back on here but he needs to bounce back now back up in trip (stays 3m well).

Form & Verdict
Won 2m2f Market Rasen novice hurdle (2m2f) last season and just as good when second at Kempton on final start; made an encouraging start to his chase career when fourth of 11 over an extended 2m4f at Bangor (good to soft) a month ago; likely to improve.
