Winner off a 8lb lower mark over 2m at Warwick on good ground, before winning again in a Startford handicap hurdle over half furlong further. Had pulled up twice prior to that, but appears in cracking form right now.

Odds-on when successful in a three runner novice chase at Market Rasen over 2m1f on soft ground in February. Well beaten off a 1lb higher mark over fences at Newcastle in April, before going missing in the Grade 3 Swinton Hurdle at Haydock, a run we can put a line through.

Landed novice events at Newton Abbot and Huntingdon last term and was running well when falling at the last at Taunton in January, probably needed the run last time out when sixth of seven, beaten 23L at Worcester a month ago.

Not seen since March 2016 when pulled up at Sandown. Multiple winner and rated 84 during his flat career. Last jumps win came off a mark of 131 in March 2015. Best watched.

Signs of ability in three maiden outings on the flat and purchased for 27,000gns by this yard last October. Completed a hat-trick at Perth last time out last month. Looks in good heart at the moment.

Busy on the flat recently. Hurdle form uninspiring with last win coming in March 2015. Beaten 29L on last hurdle appearance in April.

Forecasts

Attest (15/8), Ebony Express (3/1), Rossetti (3/1), Holly Bush Henry (4/1), Nabhan (16/1), War Singer (33/1)

Verdict

The pace here should come from the Warren Greatrex-trained Attest, who landed a hat-trick at Perth last time out in June. The hat-trick-seeking, Rosetti who has two small field successes behind him, while a chance is taken with HOLLY BUSH HENRY who is better than his last run suggests.
  1. Holly Bush Henry
  2. Attest
  3. Rossetti
