J: Freddie Keighley

T: Martin Keighley

Only 3lb higher than for her narrow C&D win on good ground in March and was odds-on favourite for her return to fences 18 days ago only to depart mid-race; she's probably the one to beat; usual cheekpieces are replaced by an eyeshield.

Upped to an extended 2m7f for his successful handicap debut at Market Rasen (good to soft) in December; good second since at Wetherby (3m1f, soft), Fakenham (3m, soft) and Huntingdon (3m2f, good to soft); looks a thorough stayer and he'd have much more to prove on good ground; blinkers replace the cheekpieces worn on those last four starts but he has to be shortlisted.

Form & Verdict
The tongue-tie went on for last four starts, breaking his duck in good style at Hereford (3m2f, soft) on first occasion and creditable runner-up in two of his three starts since; the exception can be forgiven on heavy ground at Ffos Las; the tongue-tie is removed this time and he's not proven on good, but otherwise he has solid each-way claims.

Seemingly aided by new tongue-tie when gaining breakthrough win at Hereford (3m1f, soft) in December, his 13th hurdle run, and has been placed on three of his four starts since; would appeal more on ground slower than good but still enters calculations; swaps usual cheekpieces for visor.

Broke his duck in good style at Hereford (3m2f, soft) in December, fitted with a tongue-tie, and backed that up with another solid effort behind a big improver at Uttoxeter; can be forgiven recent Ffos Las run where the ground went against him and he's worth considering.
