Form & Verdict
0-11 over hurdles but did little wrong before succumbing to an improver at Worcester (2m7f, good) in July and has now finished second three consecutive times; versatile regarding ground, and a leading contender on today's terms.

Bumper winner on debut in 2023; finally off the mark over hurdles (2m7f, good) last September but she's run to an ordinary level back in handicaps on last two starts and goes chasing with something to prove.

Looked promising when winning a bumper on her debut in August 2023 but it took her an age to get going over hurdles, eventually winning a Uttoxeter maiden last September; hasn't gone on from that in three subsequent runs and returns following a break.

Form & Verdict
Won slow-ground Fairyhouse bumper for Gavin Cromwell in January; only third when hot favourite for Limerick maiden hurdle (2m1f, good) in May and below that level when well-held fourth at Bellewstown (2m1f, good) in July; not easy to weigh up over this much longer trip on his stable debut but has the form to threaten if all goes to plan.

Had useful form in Ireland in a bumper and maiden hurdles; beaten at evens on British debut (2m7f) but under a positive ride back over 2m at Uttoxeter he made a lot of the running for a hard-fought win; faces a much stiffer examination here.

Form & Verdict
Won uncompetitive, five-runner Stratford bumper (good to firm) in July but was readily held in Sedgefield match race (good ground) last week and probably needs this hike up in trip to unlock improvement on his hurdling debut.

Bumper winner last year; yet to add to that in five hurdle starts but has shown ability, notably when third at Newcastle (2m7f, good) in October; below-par effort in November and well held on last month's reappearance at Perth (3m2f, good to soft); may come on from that but others appeal more.
