Pulled up at Kelso last month, following a break, but he had previously run two creditable races at Perth (good), finishing second in a novice hurdle and fourth in a novice handicap; worth considering back in trip.
42,000 buy in April having won a maiden point in Ireland (3m, good); has shown some promise in maiden/novice hurdles over 2m5f/2m4f at Kelso and Hexham; interesting down in trip on handicap debut.
Dual Flat winner over 1m2f on good to firm; has shown promise in three runs over hurdles although he pulled hard on first two occasions; sharp 1m7.5f should suit; a possible on handicap debut.
Ex-Irish; 0-22 under rules but he shaped quite well on stable debut hen third in a Sedgefield novice handicap (2m4f, soft), fading late on; this trip might be better; stable in form; interesting.
Third in an Irish maiden point in February 2024 (3m, heavy); not shown much in bumpers and novice hurdles at up to 2m5f; may do better now handicapping.
Flat winner in 2023; hasn't shown a great deal over hurdles, including in soft-ground handicaps in January, but he ran well on Wolverhampton AW two outings ago and his stable is going well; chance.
More exposed than most; decent second in a mares' handicap at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) in January but hasn't backed that up in two subsequent runs.
Hasn't shown much in two bumpers and four runs over hurdles, including on handicap debut when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; 9lb out of the handicap.
