Has run to the same level in three novice hurdles, very much looking like he needs further than a bare 2m. Might be better off in handicaps and might find one or two too good again today.
2
Horse silk
8/1
Only moderate on the Flat but put in a perfectly respectable first effort over hurdles at Warwick last month, weakening late to finish fifth; possibly one for handicaps but a good showing here wouldn't be the biggest surprise.
3
Horse silk
125/1
Hurdles debut today, just one win in 29 starts on the Flat and possible stamina issues could arise if the ground gets a lot softer. Makes little appeal.

6/4
Winner off a mark of 79 (for Clive Cox) on the Flat, ran well on hurdles debut for this yard when second to Golden Taipan here, form that gives him a solid chance, but did flatten out late on, and needs to settle a little better here.

9/4
Nicely bred type, hurdles debut today, but won only start, a bumper at Cheltenham on New Year's Day, very tidily. Looks to have a turn of foot and if jumping fluently, looks to have a good chance of making it 2-2.
6

150/1
Well beaten on only start in a novice hurdle at Sedgefield and looks to face an impossible task on that.

Wasn't up to a lot on the Flat, winning just once, and showed very little on hurdles debut here a couple of weeks ago; makes next to no appeal.

Horse silk
100/1
Not seen out the best part of three years, only start coming when well beaten in a Fontwell novice hurdle back in the January of 2017; connections presumably think there's still an engine but cannot be entertained as the likely winner here.

5/1
Progressing nicely, winner of two of his three bumper starts, including under a penalty last time, never an easy thing to do; yard ticking along and this one should take a hand in the finish if he jumps with fluency on hurdles debut.
Useful on the Flat last year, winning at Sandown off a mark of 73, but has looked regressive lately and needs this change of code to wake his ideas up a bit. Good jockey booking though, so worth a glance in the market for any support.

No sign of any ability in 17 starts and looks booked in for another tough time of it for a yard that hasn't had a winner for as long as you can remember; cannot possibly be entertained.

Forecasts

Get Back Get Back (6/4), Glory And Fortune (9/4), Mount Windsor (5/1), Almazhar Garde (13/2), Aria Rose (8/1), Keeper's Choice (20/1), Mickey Buckman (100/1), Laqab (100/1), Essential (125/1), Going Mobile (150/1), Lope De Loop (250/1)

Verdict

Get Back Get Back ran well on his hurdles debut for Harry Fry and will be popular, but he might not be the most resolute if it comes down to a fight and GLORY AND FORTUNE might be the one to be with on his hurdles debut today. He was impressive when winning at Cheltenham and there have been a couple of winners out of that race, so the form looks solid enough. Mount Windsor has done little wrong to date and will have his chance, and if they do go too quickly, Almazhar Garde will be closing in late.
