Runner-up on Irish point debut but disappointing under rules since, including over hurdles on his last three starts last year (2m-2m3f); could improve on switch to fences for handicap debut after a break, though will need to see it.

Well beaten in three maiden hurdles in the autumn but 2-2 since switched to handicap chases this year, with both wins gained in small fields at Plumpton (2m4f, soft/good); has a bit more on his plate today but may still have more improvement to come.

Form & Verdict
Rather in and out since winning at Fontwell in December 2024, but he was in the process of running one of his better races when falling at the second last at Lingfield (2m4f, heavy) 18 days ago; likely to play a part if none the worse for that experience.

Can be a bit in and out but he stuck to his task and just got the better of Le Galli Bier for second last time at Plumpton (2m4f, soft); however, the winner left both behind and this 9yo is off the same mark.

Seemed to find 2m7f too taxing here last month but had arguably been fortunate to escape with just a small nudge up the weights for his clear second at Warwick (2m4f, good to soft) on New Year's Eve, and this drop back in trip looks the right move.

Form & Verdict
Fair maiden over hurdles who, while still seeking his first win over fences, has shown enough to suggest a race of this nature is within his compass; comes back in trip and worth considering, especially if the cheekpieces have the desired effect.

Showed little in Ireland but has thrived since joining this stable, winning under Tom Broughton on all three starts (2m4f/2m5f), on ground no worse than good to soft; more needed off 4lb higher and the ground is likely to be on the soft side, but still the one to beat.

Ex-Irish 8yo who started off for Fergal O'Brien with three chase wins (2m4f-2m5f) in the autumn; returned with a lesser effort in February and fell when last in action but remains unexposed over 3m; sports first-time cheekpieces for hurdling debut; could have a say.

Form & Verdict
Dual chase winner in December 2024 and fairly consistent since, but she has struggled back up in class on last two starts, albeit they were some tough assignments; should appreciate this ease in class and she's capable of making her presence felt.

Made encouraging seasonal debut over 2m4f in November but has been well beaten over that trip three times since; she's suited by good ground and can outclass this field if back on song but is unraced beyond about 2m5f and arrives with a fair bit to prove.
