Last run: 13 days

W: 9st 9lb

Form & Verdict
Useful form in these colours for Michael Bell when highly tried on occasions; big things were expected of him in juvenile hurdles but his form tapered off; this is a drop in grade from his fourth here at the Guineas meeting (1m4f) but he was beaten 8l and connections now turn to a claiming rider, which probably makes sense.

1m4f winner from the front (under Mason Paetel) at Newmarket last May who also scored with a prominent ride over hurdles at Cheltenham (2m5f) in November; had a bit to prove on AW (and over 2m on Flat) when always behind at Kempton three weeks ago but should be benefited from that run.

Lavender Hill Mob

9st 5lb

J: Sean D Bowen

T: James Owen

Career-best effort on the Flat when bagging a 1m4f course handicap (good) in May; found out off higher marks in the Copper Horse at Royal Ascot and Northumberland Plate at Newcastle the following month; in common with stablemate East India Rock, he's been given a three-month break ahead of this step up to Listed company; has something to find on form with a couple of these.

Form & Verdict
Stranded on a losing run since winning as a 3yo at Royal Ascot and there's been limited encouragement for a while now to suggest he's about to snap it.

Form & Verdict
Both turf wins have been at Chester where he looked threatening last week over 1m2f before weakening at the death; still ran well and he was fourth of 19 off this mark in a strong 1m4f handicap at last year's Royal Ascot; every chance.

Four wins for George Boughey at 1m2f/1m4f and useful in that scene; wouldn't have won but displayed some ability until falling at Sandown on hurdles debut in January; also offered something to work on in two starts the following month; Flat form makes this opening hurdle mark look dangerous.

Four wins for George Boughey at 1m2f/1m4f and useful in that scene (effective on soft); wouldn't have won when falling at Sandown and then no match for a dark horse at Southwell; highly likely that he'll need more here.
