Finished runner-up on his two most recent hurdles starts including when beaten 15L in a claiming event over an extended 1m7f at Leicester (heavy) in January. Worth a check in the market on debut for this yard.
Well beaten on handicap debut over an extended 2m at Stratford (soft) in March when returning from over 14 months off the track. Interesting despite disappointing on the Flat at Newmarket (1m4f, good) just over a month ago.
Beaten a neck when runner-up in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Hexham (good) last September but disappointed on soft ground over the same C&D the following month. Better ground forecast here a positive on seasonal reappearance.
Struggled in three starts on the Flat since joining this stable.. Interesting to see how he fares on his first start over hurdles since winning a claiming event for Olly Murphy at Fakenham (2m, good-to-soft) in March.
Sent off favourite when finishing eighth in a handicap hurdle over an extended 2m4f at Southwell (good) at the start of this month. Races off a 4lb lower mark here and is interesting dropping back in trip.
Failed to figure in four starts since joining this yard from Ireland including when pulled up over an extended 2m5f at Wincanton (soft) in March. Market support would be notable on his return to action.
Placed over hurdles last campaign and was making his first start since wind surgery when finishing seventh over 1m6f on the AW at Wolverhampton last month. Tongue tie worn for the first time that day is retained on his return to hurdles.
Completed a double when taking a claiming chase over an extended 2m3f at Ffos Las (soft) in October. Decent third at Worcester (good-to-soft) over an extended 2m four days later and he is worth a check in the market in this event.
Decent effort in finishing fourth over 2m at Kempton (good-to-soft) in January and is of interest racing off a mark 4lb lower than for his latest handicap success having had a run on the Flat when fifth at Newbury (1m2f, good) last month.
Pulled up on his first two starts for this yard but fared better when finishing 5½L seventh at Southwell (2m, good) earlier this month. Making his first start since having wind surgery that day and is one to note in this contest.
Listed hurdle winner in France and successful at Warwick on UK debut in January last year. Struggled since however including on three starts since joining this yard. Market support would be notable on her return from a break.
Well held 33L 11th over an extended 2m at Stratford (soft) in March. Well handicapped on his old form however and races off a mark 11lb lower than when victorious at Fotnwell (good-to-soft) in November 2017.
Forecasts
Peter The Mayo Man (5/2), Get Back Get Back (4/1), Esprit De Baileys (11/2), New Agenda (13/2), Authorizo (9/1), Melody Of Scotland (11/1), Raven's Tower (14/1), King Alfonso (18/1), Laskadine (25/1), Percy (28/1), Swaffham Bulbeck (66/1), Kuiper Belt (66/1)
GET BACK GET BACK disappointed on handicap debut last November but he had wind surgery and can make a winning return to hurdling following a spin on the Flat last month. The selection should appreciate the forecast going here and he can get the better of his rivals with Peter The Mayo Man taken to claim second with the drop in trip likely to suit having run well for a long way over further last time out. Third place can go to Authorizo who showed improved form on his return from wind surgery last time out.
