Bought for £160,000 soon after finishing a close second to a subsequent hurdle winner in an Irish point last May; well beaten in a Cheltenham novice hurdle (2m4f, good to soft; 10-1) in October but had wind surgery since then and no doubt capable of a lot better; the market could be instructive.

Stacks of minor honours and his second in a Doncaster maiden last time, after 101 days off, was one of his best efforts; another was in November on his only go at about 2m6f; the lack of a win is a touch disconcerting, though.

Responsible for some of the best form on show but he's now 0-10 over hurdles so had his chances; probably found the ground too soft last time; might be vulnerable to rivals with lower mileage.

Hasn't kicked on from his encouraging debut (2m4f, good to soft) and probably needs to better that form to win this; however, it's still days and this gelding has a very appealing jumps pedigree.

Good jumping pedigree but it was a belated start to his career when second over 2m4f at Aintree in November and wasn't at the same level the following month at Warwick; that initial effort offers hope, as would expect him to progress with racing.

9yo who was 2-12 in points (the wins coming over 2m4f on good/good to firm); weakened on February's belated hurdling debut (soft) and couldn't convert what turned into a golden opportunity at Warwick (2m5f, good) four weeks ago; handicap debut and may yet do better in this sphere.

9-1 when fifth in the Chester Cup last year for Andrew Balding, which is as good as he's ever been on Flat; 7lb lower today, having been right off the boil for that yard later in 2025; recent hurdle efforts for new stable aren't enough to persuade, especially given such a wide draw.

A useful winning stayer on the Flat for Andrew Balding; yet to match that form in this sphere but he posted his best effort when third of ten in 2m4f handicap at Musselburgh 12 days ago; not out of things on this stiffer track.

He could do with settling better than when tailed off in Doncaster maiden (2m3f, soft) last month; however, he was very talented on the Flat in his prime and showed some promise on his first two hurdle starts (2m4f/2m1f, good to soft); not discounted now tackling his first handicap hurdle.
