Form & Verdict

9yo who made it sixth-time lucky over fences when making all over 3m1f here (heavy; third run for current yard) two weeks ago; 6lb higher on this big drop back in trip but he jumped really well last time and still looks feasibly treated on that form; respected.

Form & Verdict

3m hurdle winner who has really got his act together over fences since November, with two C&D wins (soft) followed by a clearcut success over 2m at Ffos Las (heavy) three weeks ago; was unpenalised last time and 10lb rise has now kicked in but he's open to more progress and is a big player again in his bid for a four-timer.

Form & Verdict

Runner-up four times in maiden/novice hurdles (2m-2m4f) but he's struggled in both his handicaps, most recently at Wetherby (2m3f, good to soft) on Boxing Day; still lightly raced but has something to prove now switched to chasing in headgear.
