Confirmed previous promise over hurdles when an easy winner of a maiden at Fakenham last time; stiffer task here but looks the stable's number one and he's a possible player.

Mister Ursus

11st 7lb

J: Kevin Brogan

T: Olly Murphy

Won twice on the Flat in Poland in 2024 and once in France last year; sometimes races a bit too freely but has made the frame on both hurdling starts, more recently when keeping-on second at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) last month, and probably still has potential over jumps; likely contender.

Has been let down by his jumping on his last two starts, latest on handicap debut when 13th of 15 at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) last month; can do better once his jumping technique improves.

T: Ben Case

Fair bumper performer who has matched that form in this sphere, still not foot perfect when a good second of five in 2m Fakenham novice last month; this return to further should suit so he's very much one to consider, especially if hurdling better.

He's not obviously well treated off his opening mark but this 5yo has been consistent across his six starts (all at 2m) and his pedigree provides optimism that he'll improve for the step up in trip; possible player.

T: Louise Allan

Maiden point winner in 2024; showed no significant promise in maiden hurdles this season (2m-2m4f; refused to race on one occasion) and is 14lb out of the weights for this handicap debut; needs combination of longer trip and new tongue-tie to enable significant improvement.
