Form shown in maiden hurdles can only be described as poor but did win a point-to-point Larkhill inApril by 15L. Pulled-up on his next start in that sphere though and probably best watched on his return to hurdles for a new trainer.
Makes his hurdling debut after a couple of very modest bumper runs and doesn't look as though he'll be one to make much impression as yet over obstacles.

13/8
Once rated as high as 97 on the Flat but ran nowhere near that form when tried over hurdles once before in 2015. Not under either code for a while now but has the potential to leave that weak hurdles debut behind if fit and ready to go after a break.
His one previous try over hurdles came for the Tony Coyle yard back in 2014 (pulled-up) and although he has won on the Flat since then form is fairly modest and he made an inauspicious start for his current yard on the Flat recently (finished last). No resumes his hurdling career and while this yard are good at turning characters like him around they look to have a tough task here.

11/8
Winner of his only start for John Gosden on heavy ground at Nottingham over 1m2f he was subsequently gelded and sold to his current connections. Has progressed steadily over hurdles (has a mark of 111 already) and turned in his best effort last time out at Fakenham (2m, good). Started favourite there and although that was his best effort he looked less than straightforward hanging away his chance and idling on the run-in.

100/1
Only a very modest maiden on the Flat (rated 50 on his last start) and 80/1 chance and pulled-up on his hurdles debut at Kelso. Much more needed to take a hand here and best watched.

150/1
Very little form of any note at all and a hurdles record of 0/6 and a Flat one of 0/19 probably sum up her chance here.

Forecasts

Coroberee (11/8), Forgotten Hero (13/8), Included (9/4), San Quentin (6/1), Eyesopenwideawake (13/2), Fair Frank (33/1), Mission Mars (100/1), Farrah's Choice (150/1)

Verdict

Hardly the strongest of maiden hurdles but there are couple of interest with Forgotten Hero by far the best of these on Flat ratings but hard to know what sort of shape he’s in after a fair absence. San Quentin comes from a yard that are good at turning characters like him around but they may face a hard task with this one as he resumes his hurdling career after a significant break. Coroberee has had plenty of experience but doesn’t look an easy ride and it may well be giving INCLUDED a chance to build on her promising Ffos Las debut.
