J: Ciaran Gethings

T: Jane Williams

Showed useful form over hurdles last season, winning at Newbury (2m, good to soft) in January and bettering that when fourth in the Dovecote the following month, before signing off with a lesser effort when well held in a conditions race at Compiegne in April; can race freely but sets the standard and will find this much easier back from a break.

Lightly raced 4yo; put everything together when winning at Newbury (2m, good to soft) in January, racing freely in front and pulling further clear on run-in; the basic form is just fair but he's anything but exposed and must be considered.

Unexposed filly who showed promise in three junior hurdles last season; makes handicap debut after six-month break but is open to improvement; well worth a glance in the betting.

Little show on her debut but she took a step forward on the back of wind surgery when fourth of eight in 2m junior hurdle at Newbury in January; she may do better still after a break; possibilities.

Quiet at about 2m over hurdles before going up to 3m on handicap debut at Southwell, a trip she might not have stayed; she's still got plenty to prove.
