10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Second in big-field Irish bumper last season and started off for new stable with two encouraging hurdle runs, latterly when second in C&D (good to soft) maiden in December; well beaten here on last month's handicap debut debut but still enters calculations. |

1st Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Ex-Stuart Crawford; creditable second (with today's rivals Fia Fuinidh and Shir I Dont Know third and fourth) in this same hood and tongue-tie combination over C&D in December; appears to handle testing ground on basis of Irish form; merits consideration on handicap debut. |

Not beaten far when fourth of five against own age group at Kelso (2m, heavy) in January but the value of that form is open to question and others here have much more persuasive claims. |

24th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Irish point winner in the autumn; respectable debut for new yard at Catterick in February (2m3f, good) before finding 2m inadequate at Ayr since; has potential for better on handicap debut. |

3rd 6 |
10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Joined George Bewley after good-ground Irish point win in October; just a mildly encouraging stable debut when well-held fifth at Catterick (2m3f, good) last month and might be one for a bit further down the line. |
25/1 |

16th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Point winner for whom it is very early days under rules, but he was soundly beaten at 50-1 on his recent stable debut at Catterick (2m3f, good) and has to take a sizeable step forward here. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Useful Flat-racer who made satisfactory stable/hurdle debut when third of six at Catterick (1m7f, soft) in January; took backward step when favourite at Carlisle last month but could still have a future over jumps. |
7/2 |
5th 9 |
20th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Fairly useful (peak RPR 91) at up to 2m on Flat for Hughie Morrison; finished third in Catterick novice hurdle (1m7f, soft) on debut for new stable, showing some promise for this game; should be suited by this longer distance and stiffer track; respected. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Displayed significant ability on the Flat for Gavin Cromwell last year but well beaten in three slow-ground maiden hurdles for new stable this winter and needs today's switch to a forecast quicker surface to show him in a much better light; hood/tongue-tie removed. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Dropped out very tamely here (2m3f, good to soft) 11 days ago but was still in contention before penultimate-flight unseat at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January, in a race that was eventually fought out by two useful horses, and the form of his bumper run in 2021 also reads very well. |

27th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 110y Class 4 |

Smart bumper form in May 2021; non-stayer over 2m4f on sole hurdle completion at Perth last May and pulled much too hard, though still in contention, when badly hampered and unseating two out at Down Royal last month (2m1f, soft); has potential if only he could settle better. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Made the frame in all three bumpers, most notably when winning by over 7l on debut at Kelso (good to soft) in November, and shaped with significant promise before weakening into well-held third behind two fairly useful rivals on last month's hurdling debut at Kelso (2m, good); ought to play a significant role here. |

Fair form when placed in Navan handicap (2m6f, good) for Noel Meade in November 2021 but failed to complete all three subsequent chases for that stable and, following a layoff, made low-key debut for James Lambe in a point last month; current ability hard to gauge. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Flat-bred mare who wasn't beaten far in any of her three bumpers but almost certainly needs to improve to land a significant blow on today's hurdling debut. |

14th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |

Flat-bred mare; not beaten far at Perth (good) last spring or at Musselburgh (soft) last month but needs to take a good step forward to land a telling blow here. |
