Promise over hurdles earlier in year but held in both starts since returning last month, ending up well beaten after a late mistake on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) last time; has something to prove.
2-2 under Fern O'Brien following wins on good ground at Stratford (2m) and Sedgefield (2m1f); up another 7lb and drying ground would probably help (albeit his Flat win came on soft ground), but still a major player for last year's winning stable.
Bumper winner who has been placed in all three starts over hurdles, probably running into a couple of nice types when third of five at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie) last month; a player on handicap debut.
Flat/hurdle winner in Ireland who is 1-14 since joining this yard, the win coming at Lingfield (2m, soft) a year ago; has run well off higher marks since, but needs to put a modest effort at Leicester (2m, heavy; has won on similar ground) 11 days ago behind him.
0-5 in points; promise in first two starts over hurdles including when a close second of four over C&D (good to soft) in October, but last of six on handicap debut at Warwick (2m3f, soft) last month; return to this trip may help, but enough to prove.
Struggled in handicap hurdles in Ireland after winning a Wexford maiden (2m, soft) in October last year, but finished a promising third of 12 on stable debut at Chepstow (2m, soft; 50-1) last month; interesting to see if she can build on it down 1lb.
