22nd Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Inconsistent but he won at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft) in December and again had something to spare when winning at Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) last month; useful on the Flat earlier in his career and there could still be mileage in his mark (up 6lb since last time); on the shortlist. |

Flat winner who is 0-6 over hurdles but has responded positively to this headgear combination the last twice in handicaps over 2m5f and 2m3f (both on good); strong stayer on the Flat so this longer trip is worth a go. |

0-16 over hurdles but all five of this season's runs were respectable and he continues to edge down the weights; swaps cheekpieces for refitted blinkers here; probably won't be far away. |

In-form 7yo who scored over C&D (good) last month and is now 2-4 since cheekpieces were refitted in December; latest 3lb rise does not look excessive and he's likely to be right in the thick of things again. |

20th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 110y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Has had a couple of close calls at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) this winter but he's now 1-26 on the Flat and his only hurdle run was at Kempton (well-held sixth) in December 2022; probably best watched back in this sphere. |

Won this in 2021 (good) and he's run well to finish second on three of his last four starts (1m4f/1m5f, good); capable of having a big say provided he handles conditions (unproven on slow ground). |

0-5 over fences and 0-24 overall but has posted two pretty good efforts to finish third in a visor this month, latterly at Perth (2m, good to soft) a fortnight ago; major player if judged on that evidence. |

Ex-Irish, longstanding maiden who fared better at Sedgefield last Friday (first-time visor; has worn cheekpieces) despite again not jumping well; this mark should be within range when she puts in a decent round. |

12th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who doesn't look the easiest of rides and best form thus far has come on good ground; however, she stormed home for 2l fourth on handicap debut at Doncaster (2m, good) in November, despite being hampered after final flight, and could prove well treated when things really click. |
7/1 |
Verdict
Flat form could prove of greater significance than hurdling exploits and that angle makes BLOW YOUR HORN (nap) a strong contender. Choirmaster is the second choice.[Alistair Jones]
