Form & Verdict
0-6 over hurdles and 0-5 on the Flat but his recent handicap fourths at Kempton (1m4f, AW) and Chepstow (1m2f, good) were very encouraging; moves up in trip today and may still have a bigger run in him; might be the answer.

He's 2lb lower than when winning at Brighton last August but has struggled to get competitive this year and needs to turn things around.

Won twice for Nick Littmoden, including over 1m4f at Brighton (good) last August; low-key form since joining this trainer in May for 6,000gns and has plenty to prove at present.

Form & Verdict
Doubled tally with ready win in basement-grade classified here (11.6f, good to firm) a week ago but that race was very slowly run and the second had a puny BHA rating of 25, so the form looks dubious; tries a new trip today.

2-36 with one of his wins coming here (1m2f, good to firm) in August last year, the other at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) in June; placed five times from six starts over C&D this year, but below form on soft the last twice; could do with the ground drying out, but considered if it does.

J: Luke Catton

T: Jim Boyle

Got back on the scoresheet with an emphatic win in classified event at Lingfield (11.6f) in June; ran to similar level when runner-up over C&D last month but his form has nosedived in last two runs; now drops back in grade but has a bit to prove again and he's a frequent slow starter.

J: Charlie Bennett

T: Jim Boyle

Used to be a notorious slow starter but he's been a bit better in that department since the summer and it was a solid effort in this headgear combination when second of five at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; stayed on from the rear when third in an amateur riders' race over that C&D 12 days later; this is a notch above the standard he regularly contests, though.

Form & Verdict
Scored off much reduced mark at Beverley (1m4f, good) last month and was very respectable second of four here (11.6f, good to firm) a week ago; still unexposed over this sort of trip on the Flat; respected.

Won on the Flat in May but was safely held on both hurdling starts this year (both in 2m handicaps in July) and reverts to this code after a very poor Flat run last month; stablemate Chillhi looks a safer option.

Good effort upped to 2m at Wolverhampton in November when third of nine off an 8lb higher mark; she hasn't run badly on her last two starts and the step back up in trip may help.

Form & Verdict
A recent trip to France for a claiming hurdle was unsuccessful but he ran well in defeat on latest Flat start, at Musselburgh (1m6f, good) last month; unraced on ground quicker than good but has possibilities if he copes with the conditions; swaps usual cheekpieces for refitted blinkers.

Made all, winning unchallenged in a Catterick claimer (2m, good) in March, changing hands for £12,000; failed to beat a rival on the Flat at Southwell (1m3f) on first start for this trainer the following month, and pulled up on chase debut next time; returning to hurdles is a sensible move.

Can do too much in front but no alarms when making all in a Catterick claiming hurdle for Jennie Candlish in March (1m7f, good); out of a half-sister to a minor chase winner, but not bred for this job otherwise.
