Fairly useful hurdler who left chasing debut form well behind when landing a 5-runner novice over C&D and only just denied at Carlisle since. Should go well again.

Easy winner of sole point. Pair of novice hurdle wins at Sedgefield (soft/heavy) in 2020 and made sound start to chase career when second at Carlisle 63 days ago. More to come and good claims.

Forecasts

Evander (3/1), Informateur (7/2), Jack Valentine (4/1), Ey Up Rocky (6/1), Heartbreak Kid (7/1), Stay Humble (8/1), Glenduff (10/1)

Verdict

An interesting novice handicap. JACK VALENTINE had a bit in hand when making a winning chase bow at Leicester and makes the most appeal, but there are plenty of possible threats, headed by Heartbreak Kid, whose Carlisle chase debut second has been boosted by the winner since. Informateur was only narrowly denied off this mark over C&D so also merits respect.
