Form & Verdict
Generally solid for this yard, winning his latest two races on officially good ground, at 2m5f and 2m3f, just prevailing over a well-treated one here latterly; up in trip but the first win was on Carlisle's stiff track so he could stay this far; considered.

J: Tom Midgley

T: Sam England

Gentle progression this spring culminated in April's Carlisle win (2m5f, good), and possible excuses both starts since (boiled over; 2m1f too sharp); no RPR better than 91 when there's been give in the ground.

J: Jonathan England

T: Sam England

Came good for Sam England at third attempt, readily winning Carlisle chase (2m5f, good) by over 8l last month, and reportedly boiled over in the preliminaries before this month's poor run at Hexham; can be dangerous if back on song for this return to hurdling.

Form & Verdict
Early promise in a bumper and novice hurdle for this yard but failed to fulfil it; two point wins for another trainer (along with some lesser efforts) over an 18-month spell ending in May but he dropped out back with Fergal O'Brien in June and goes chasing with a question to answer.

Showed some promise over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien in 2022-23 and has steadily found his form in points since returning from an absence; now back with his former trainer, he could be interesting off this low a mark.

Form & Verdict
Two C&D runs, winning one and a good second in the other (good to soft and good), but he was too eager in the early stages before dropping out at Hexham (2m4f; a race he'd won before) in May; needs to settle better back at 3m.

Disappointed in a series final two starts ago and was behind Pure Surf and Top Of The Bay when third of four at Newcastle (2m4f, good) last time but he's more reliable than some of these and it's worth remembering he won this race in 2023.

26,000euros 3yo; second foal; dam unraced half-sister to bumper and smart 2m4f-3m1f hurdle/chase winner Casey Jones; ran in two Irish maiden points last year, runner-up in October on second occasion; probably one for later on but market should guide on rules debut.

Mostly well held over hurdles for previous yards (0-12) and no immediate improvement for the switch to fences of late for this trainer; goes beyond about 2m1f for the first time so there have to be stamina questions.

0-12 over hurdles for two previous yards and unable to justify strong market support when well-held fourth on stable/chase debut at Ffos Las (2m, good) six weeks ago; however, this free-going front-runner might be seen to better effect on this sharper track.
