25th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won on hurdle debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in November and, having run out four out at Newcastle next time, he made amends with a win under Alice Stevens at Huntingdon (2m3f, good to soft) on Boxing Day; ran well in a heavy-ground bumper and he has leading form claims under a double penalty. |

26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 137y Class 4 |

Irish point winner; improved on bumper efforts when making a winning hurdle debut at Uttoxeter; still travelling well enough when running out (short of room) at the fourth last at Kelso since; retains potential. |

8th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 6f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Irish point winner (third start); placed in three of his four bumper runs for this trainer; showed a good attitude to score by 3l on his hurdling debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last month (the third gave that form a solid look when placed again on Tuesday); player under a penalty. |

11st 9lb |
Won a bumper at Fontwell (2m1f, soft) on his sole run for Anthony Honeyball and made it 2-2 when scoring on last month's hurdle and stable debut at Plumpton (2m, soft); he's bred to be suited by this step up in trip and could have a big say under a penalty. |

Closely related to useful hurdler Easy As That; created pretty good impression when winning soft-ground Fontwell bumper for Anthony Honeyball in February; changed hands for £26,000 soon afterwards and now makes his stable/hurdle debut; must be considered. |

25th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Placed in two points (3m, soft) and he's also shown ability on both rules starts (2m/2m1f, soft); vulnerable if bumping into anything useful but the step up in trip may help and he might not be far away. |

26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |

Showed ability in two of three point starts and ran well on rules/stable debut at Bangor a month ago; entitled to come on for that run and he's one to be interested in for this hurdle debut. |

25th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 4 |

Heavy-ground bumper winner who left the form of November's hurdle debut well behind when runner-up at Wetherby (2m3f, good to soft); she's back against males here but could be involved. |
7/1 |
2nd 7 |
26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Runner-up on stable debut in bumper at Hexham (2m, good to soft) in October then went one better at Carlisle (2m1f, heavy); it's still very early days over hurdles but she was well beaten in a Hexham novice (2m, soft) on her first attempt and has to leave that form well behind. |

17th Nov 2022 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |

Produced three similar efforts in bumpers, keeping on well to win at Carlisle (2m1f, heavy) last month; however, her jumping lacked fluency and she was well beaten on her hurdle debut at Hexham yesterday. |

Point winner who was a promising third on his bumper debut in March 2021, and he was then absent until Hereford (2m, soft) last month where he was a 22l fifth of 14 on hurdle debut; improvement required but he may have needed that latest outing and is not ruled out. |

Ran in snatches when a soundly beaten fourth of seven over C&D (soft; 28-1) on New Year's Day on his hurdle debut; however, there was a bit of promise in that first outing since last February and he's open to improvement for his in-form yard; no forlorn hope. |

Four-time Flat winner (1m2f/1m4f) whose hurdle debut fourth at Newcastle (2m1f, soft) wasn't without promise; improvement required but the step up in trip may be a plus (stayed 2m on the Flat); not ruled out each-way. |
