Strips fitter today after finishing runner-up when resuming in a hurdle (3200m) at Plumpton four weeks ago, coming in 10 lengths behind the winner Synchronist. Sure to prove tough to beat.

Finished fourth two back on the flat over 2000m then again was unplaced in a flat race over 2400m at Kempton Park All Weather last start, 6 lengths away from the winner. In the mix again back over the jumps.

Found the frame last time in a hurdle (3200m) at Uttoxeter to continue his improvement in recent runs. Further improvement expected and is a leading chance.

Was returning from a 138-day layoff last start when he took a tumble in a hurdle (3200m) at Kempton Park. Needs to go up a level.

Likes to make all in his races. Gave a sight but reined in late when second in a hurdle (3300m) at Market Rasen last time. Leading prospect who can find winning form here.

Finished a modest fourth in a hurdle (3200m) at Plumpton last start. That came after he two runs ago. Hard to fault on his best form.

First up from a spell today for a new yard. Expect he will be forward enough.

Resumes here after she was safely held at the back end of last preparation, finishing down the track over 3710m in a hurdle at Newton Abbot. Finished well off best last time when a 24 length 11th over 3710m in a Newton Abbot hurdle.
