Promising third on hurdling debut at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) last winter but she's struggled in both runs since including in a Uttoxeter handicap (2m, heavy) in November; this 8yo is still unexposed but she needs a transformation back up in trip.
Has a patchy profile but he got hampered when unseating over C&D last month and is now only 2lb higher than when winning this race (good to soft) last year; that was a brave success and he's a player if he can recapture that form.
0-7 on the Flat and not much in three starts over hurdles, but he now switches to a handicap and is a possible improver on this step up in trip; needs watching in market.
Record of 1-15 over hurdles for Gordon Elliott and she made a low-key start for new yard when seventh of 13 at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) last month; that trip may have stretched her but she's not easy to predict and others are more convincing.
Won on handicap debut at Carlisle (2m4f, soft) in November and he's been placed as favourite there in both subsequent runs; up another 1lb but he was only beaten around 2l last time and he still has potential; key player.
Sole win from 21 Flat starts was off a basement mark at Musselburgh (1m5f, good; RPR 52) in August; unexposed over jumps and wasn't disgraced in Musselburgh maiden (1m7f) last month but she needs improvement upped in trip on handicap hurdle debut.
Point winner who has runner-up in his sole bumper; no impact in four hurdle runs since November but his latest sixth of 14 at Catterick (2m3f, good) was a respectable effort on handicap debut; could get involved if he can build on that and he's not ruled out.
Four-time hurdle winner but he generally struggled over fences in the autumn and was tailed off back in this sphere at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) last month; needs to get back on track but he's 6b lower than for his last win and he's 3-3 over C&D.
Remote fourth in an Irish point in May and he struggled in three hurdle runs (2m1f-2m4f) in the autumn; still early days but he needs plenty of progress with visor added on handicap debut.
Eight-race maiden who has been well held in two handicaps for his current yard and latest was at Wetherby (2m5f, good) in October; tongue-tie is now added and he needs to significantly raise his game after a break.
Bumper winner who is 0-13 over hurdles but he's had some close calls in handicaps including a near miss at Musselburgh (3m, soft) on his penultimate run; looks interesting if he can recapture that form and this drop back in trip should be fine.
Point winner but he's 0-5 over hurdles and was tailed off in two slow-ground handicaps (2m4f/2m) in November; dropped another 5lb but he has plenty to prove back up in trip
Tailed off in his three races over hurdles at up to 2m3f, but he did nearly win an Irish point and it wouldn't be a surprise if he showed lot more on this handicap debut; one to keep an eye on in market.
Didn't show much in three Irish points and same story at massive prices in four runs under rules; now goes handicapping back up in trip but he needs to leave his previous form well behind
1m2f winner for Joseph O'Brien; uncompetitive in three runs for current yard but he wasn't beaten far in a juvenile hurdle at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in November; still unexposed in this sphere but he needs to find more upped in trip on handicap debut; tongue-tie added.
0-7 over hurdles but was placed in a Uttoxeter handicap (2m4f, good) in May and he reappeared with a fair fourth at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) last month; should benefit from that run and he's still unexposed at this trip; in the mix.
Ex-Nigel Hawke; creditable fourth in Sedgefield handicap (2m5f, good; 11-5 favourite) on stable debut in November and she may not have handled the heavy ground at Ayr (sixth of eight) last month; record is now 0-10 but she could be dangerous if she can bounce back near best.
