Form & Verdict
Upped to 2m4f for his third handicap run he rewarded strong market support with a hard-fought success; came up short off a 10lb higher mark at Market Rasen three weeks ago and hopes appear to rest on another step up in trip prompting extra (bred to stay well).

Won when upped to 2m4f at Uttoxeter (soft) in December on third handicap start and bounced back from Market Rasen fifth to score at Bangor (2m7f, heavy) in February; up another 6lb but he was strong at the finish last time and he should have more to offer at staying trips; key player.

Form & Verdict
In good form in the first half of 2024, winning three handicap hurdles on soft/heavy (2m3f-2m6f); little encouragement over fences this winter but the return to hurdling and the addition of cheekpieces could help matters.

Well beaten in all three chases last season and also out of form over hurdles this term; considered only if lively in the betting.

Three-time hurdle winner; safely held on both outings (cheekpieces refitted last time) since returning in November from a break but suited by slow ground and might be perked up by first-time blinkers; worth a glance in the betting.

Inconsistent last season and well beaten on both outings this term; however, he may have needed his latest run in November and won this two years ago; not written off.

Form & Verdict
Point winner in December 2020; absent for 1,471 days prior to her return in December, showing some promise but beaten 22l or more in each of her four starts; last week's Southwell second was a fair effort but more will be needed to take this.

Form & Verdict
0-18 but he has finished second in four of his seven runs for this yard; needs something extra if he is to break his duck but the new tongue-tie could provide it.

J: Nick Slatter

Bagged a fourth success of the season at Chepstow (2m3f) in February; seemed unsuited by dropping back to 2m when a solid fourth of ten at Hereford 13 days ago and not out of things over this more suitable distance.

Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and scored at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) in February; well-held fourth eight days later at Ffos Las, possibly finding the quick turnaround too much; may resume progress, though the drop in trip is a slight concern.

Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and took his form to another new level when battling on well to score at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) eight days ago; latest 4lb rise does not look excessive and further progress is not out of the question.

Form & Verdict
Promise in bumpers; slow start over hurdles but the switch to handicap company and a step up to an extended 2m3f saw him run out a ready winner at Wetherby two weeks ago; looked a stayer on that occasion and there could be more to come over this trip; strong contender up 4lb.

Runner-up over C&D in November on soft (effective on good) but hasn't kicked on from there and not sure the latest Sedgefield run (3m3f) was that much of a step back in the right direction.

Runner-up at Wetherby (3m, soft) in November and ran pretty well when fourth of 12 at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) next time; of interest on those performances but two lacklustre efforts have followed.
