Form & Verdict
Looked a bit awkward but did improve with each of his three 2yo runs, pulling clear with the winner when second at Goodwood (1m1f) in October; gelded since and the cheekpieces worn at Goodwood are replaced by blinkers on return; this trip should suit and a bold show looks assured.

Changed hands after winning Flat seller for William Haggas last summer (1m3f, soft; RPR 79); just a respectable fourth in uncompetitive Plumpton maiden (2m, good) on last month's stable/hurdle debut and needs that outing to have brought him on significantly.

Half-sister to five winners but she showed only greenness on her 1m Lingfield debut five weeks ago; this could be more her trip, though.

Bought out of the Emma Lavelle yard for 3,800gns in July after finishing tailed off on the Flat in first-time cheekpieces; won a maiden hurdle last October and could go well if Gordon Elliott can get her back to that level of form.

Grain Of Hope

11st 3lb

J: Tom Bellamy

T: Emma Lavelle

Flat maiden despite threatening a couple of times; never finished out of the first two in first four hurdle runs and she had a stiff task from out the weights at Cheltenham in April, before a disappointing run back at this level at Warwick last month when appearing not to stay the 2m5f; remains with potential in this sphere and is one to consider back in distance.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Ran to only a modest level when well-held fourth of five on her 9.5f course debut last month, but there were clear signs of greenness (hung right off the home bend) and she's certainly bred to do better.
