11st 11lb |
Promising novice hurdler in 2023 and he won two novice chases this May/June (2m6f/3m, good to firm/good); ran well in the Cesarewitch on the Flat last month and this Irish raider is not discounted now going handicapping for the first time over jumps. |

11st 10lb |
Beaten under 6l when fifth (just behind Mattie Ross) on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good to soft) in May and is 5lb lower here but needs to bounce back from a poor performance over 2m4f last month. |

Mark looked about right ahead of last month's Uttoxeter handicap debut (good to soft), from which the most immediate conclusion to draw was that 2m7f is too far at this stage; remains of interest dropped 1lb and 3f. |

Modest profile and handicaps have yet to trigger any improvement (2m/2m4f); two new forms of headgear added this time. |

Verdict
Reverend Hubert sets the standard for sure but a slog in the mud might not be absolutely ideal and HAITI COULEURS should give the Irish horse something to think about. He twice shaped well on testing ground before probably not giving his running in a Grade 2 last time.[Alistair Jones]
