Struth

11st 5lb

J: Gregor Walkingshaw

T: Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore

Useful on the Flat in his prime but has yet to better fair form over hurdles, weakening into a well-held fifth on 2m2f Kelso handicap debut in this sphere 24 days ago; might have needed that after a break but he's still hard to make a good case for.

Showed only minor promise in three novice/maiden hurdles (1m7f-2m) last September-November but was useful on the Flat in his prime and may yet transfer more of that ability to this code; wears first-time tongue-tie for handicap hurdle debut; market may guide.

Pulled up on latest hurdling start in February but the form of his Market Rasen second (2m, good to soft) a fortnight earlier worked out well, and he was placed twice on the Flat last month; a possible.

Made light of a 538-day absence to win for the first time on his stable debut at Market Rasen (2m, good) 12 days ago; handicapper has reacted by raising him 9lb but that may not be enough to stop him following up.

Offered nothing during the briefest of comebacks in autumn 2024, and another long absence since; now 25lb lower than when first entering handicaps, however, and remains in the same ownership now as then; check for market confidence ahead of this stable debut.

Jack Dempsey

11st 8lb

J: Charlie Maggs

T: Ian Duncan

Seven-race maiden; unseated rider on his first two attempts over hurdles and hasn't set the world alight in novice company on last two starts; it's notable that he steps back up in trip for handicap debut (is a half-brother to 2m4f winner Cave Hill) and that should bring about some improvement.

Unseated quite early in his first two runs over hurdles but finished a remote ninth at Ayr when 150-1; the only positive is the return to a drier surface, as the ground was good when runner-up on bumper debut.

Tailed off at Musselburgh in February when last seen and hard to fancy on the back of that; however, two starts ago she ran well in fourth on her handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m7f, soft) and this very lightly raced point winner is not written off.

Improved third in 2m1f Carlisle novice (soft) in February; well treated on that form but hasn't managed to reproduce it in two subsequent handicaps, although he probably pressed for home too far out when third back at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) in refitted cheekpieces (retained) three weeks ago; remains one who could click from a lowly mark.
