Form & Verdict
Inconsistent, mostly at a higher level, during the last 14 months; however, went close off this mark at Haydock (3m, good) on one occasion and has a fighting chance provided he's back to that form.

Ended last season in good form, winning at Hereford (3m1f, soft) before good second at Haydock (3m1f, good); ran well (over hurdles) on only previous visit to Cartmel and has possibilities if this new trip suits; refused to line up and withdrawn at Aintree recently (8-1 at the time).

Went up 5lb for winning a Class 4 at Hereford (3m1f, soft) and raised another 1lb for his second in a better race at Haydock (3m1f, good), finishing just ahead of Jacks Parrot; this 11yo is thriving and entitled to play a part in the finish.

Form & Verdict

Front-runner who won twice over hurdles at this track (2m5f, soft/heavy) early last year; despite mistakes, he returned with a good second back over fences at Fontwell (3m3f, good), but then had another off-day back over hurdles a month ago; not entirely sure what to expect from him.

Form & Verdict
Listed hurdle winner in Ireland early in career; has lost his form badly and needs to derive considerable benefit from a physical tweak (wind surgery since last run); fourth outing for new yard.

Form & Verdict
Ran dismally the last twice (chase/hurdle) but gave the impression he may well improve for headgear (now goes in cheekpieces) and this new trip; furthermore, he should benefit from the return to Warwick, being 2-3 here (0-5 elsewhere); resurgent display looks on the cards.
