9st 10lb |
Made a winning return over hurdles in February and his third of eight from 6lb higher here (1m6f) the following month was a good effort, but his three efforts since (including one back over hurdles) leave plenty to be desired; takes a big drop in class, but still best watched. |

He was having his first run on the Flat for some time when a good third of eight at Wolverhampton in March (Class 6; 1m6f); made a respiratory noise when disappointing back over hurdles four weeks ago; opposable at this level. |

Ex-Irish maiden (0-11) but she's been placed in both runs for this yard and hit a personal best when a clear second at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) last month; drops back in trip but that was a bold bid last time and she's a big player off unchanged mark. |

Career started with two wins and a second but unplaced in six starts since; joint-favourite and shaped as if he might be returning to form when fourth at Lingfield (2m, good to soft) in February but he was pulled up (in blinkers) at Taunton last time; one of three runners for Gary Moore. |

Had lost his way under both codes but, after wind surgery, he landed a bit of a gamble when beating 13 rivals at Bath (11.7f, soft) on Good Friday; tapped for speed in a steadily run 1m2f event at Brighton nine days ago; still feasibly weighted and enters the reckoning. |

Had lost his way under both codes, but after wind surgery he landed a bit of a gamble when beating 13 rivals at Bath (11.7f, soft) 15 days ago; has won on fast ground as well and although 5lb higher, he remains feasibly treated on old form; couldn't rule out. |

Progressive 6yo who was one of two to pull nicely clear of the others when holding on for narrow C&D (good) win a fortnight ago; another 5lb higher today and may not be favoured by the recent rain, but still features prominently in calculations. |

Turned things around after wind surgery with his smooth win off a tumbling mark at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft; tongue-tie added) three weeks ago; back up 10lb in the weights but he cruised to victory last time and is a major player again if he can back that up. |

Looked quite promising when winning a novice hurdle over C&D (good to soft) in November 2021 but he's gone the wrong way since and has struggled in three chase handicaps this season; mark continues to fall but he needs a major revival back in this sphere; yard also runs Often Overlooked. |

Well beaten after racing too freely on handicap hurdle debut in February but kept on well to make winning chase debut at Plumpton (2m1f, good) in April then ran well in defeat behind progressive rival at Fontwell (2m2f, good) last month; would have something to prove on ground slower than good to soft but, otherwise, he's a major player. |

Showed ability in a point and bumper in first two starts and was a promising fourth at Haydock (1m7f, soft) in the second of his three hurdle runs this winter; half-brother to a 2m hurdle winner and he should have more to offer now switched to a handicap; needs watching in the market. |
