Nottingham City Transport Handicap Hurdle (Div 1)

Beaten out of sight on last three hurdles starts at Taunton, Fakenham and Worcester, before an encouraging, second of 12, beaten 3¼L behind Polarbrook in Stratford handicap hurdle, but raised 5lb for his efforts.

Seeking a hat-trick when finishing 6L second over an extended 3m1f on good ground last month at Fontwell, before third of 12, beaten 16½L at the same track. Handicapper may have the upperhand here.

Irish raider, two better efforts this spring have seen him knocking on the door and may well have won in another couple of strides at Downpatrick in May, before two disappointing efforts at Tramore and Wexford.

Had plenty of troughs and peaks with the former the more prevalent trait and he's not scored since December 2015.

Still a maiden after 23 starts and although he stays well, best form for previous yard came with plenty of cut in the ground. Not seen since March and makes stable debut.

Not shown all that much form in bumpers or novice hurdles, but plugged on without threatening on her handicap debut (2m4f+) at Market Rasen last month, before third of nine, beaten 21L in Uttoxeter, novice handicap hurdle 25 days ago.

Was a long standing maiden who had endured a rather frustrating career to date. Not disgraced on his last couple of starts, before winning Worcester handicap chase last day earlier this month. In good heart right now returning to hurdles.

Winning hurdler/chaser who has been around for some time, but has shaped respectably in three starts since returning from a break.

First run for new yard yielded a 74L beating, finishing eighth of nine at Market Rasen in handicap hurdle.

Pushed along before 10th, soon weakened, pulled up last day at Hexham. Seven-race maiden and beaten out of sight previously at Perth.
