T: Venetia Williams

Won his final two starts last season and he made it 3-8 over fences when completing a hat-trick over 3m1f at Wincanton (the vet reported he was treated for post-race ataxia) on his comeback in February; up another 4lb but he seems versatile ground-wise and is open to more progress as a staying chaser; key player.

Made his breakthrough in a chase handicap at Leicester (2m6f, soft) last January and he completed a double at Taunton (2m7f, good to soft) the following month; has been absent since then but he still looks feasibly treated and should have more to offer in this sphere; needs a close look on comeback.

11yo who is 0-10 since completing a hat-trick in early 2023 but she's run well on both starts this season, most recently going close at Lingfield (2m7f, soft) behind a highly progressive winner; key player.
