Form & Verdict
Bumper runner-up who was in contention when brought down two out on hurdle debut at Uttoxeter in July, and he's gone 2-2 since with novice wins at Uttoxeter (2m, good) and Perth (2m, good); his opening mark is no gift but he had something to spare for each of his wins and is a likeable prospect.

Completed hat-trick with ready win on handicap debut at Aintree (2m1f, good) in November; ended 2024 with a lesser effort and was safely held when upped to 2m4f for reappearance in April but may still have potential over this even longer trip.

Form & Verdict
Won at Ludlow (2m, soft) in February on second hurdle start before two respectable handicap efforts in the spring; another fair run when third at Market Rasen (2m, good) on last month's reappearance and, while improvement is needed, this 5yo is lightly raced and in good hands to progress.

Lightly raced Flat winner who scored at Fakenham (2m, good) in April on his third hurdle start and followed up in a Sedgefield novice (2m1f, good) in May; the subsequent exploits of the Sedgefield runner-up suggest this 4yo has potential off his handicap debut mark and he's on the shortlist.
