Irish challenger who matched the pick of his hurdle form when fourth of 9 on his 20.5f Ayr handicap debut 34 days ago. May do better.

Broadway Joe⁴⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: N W Alexander| OR: 108| CD

13/8

Has taken very well to fences, winning handicaps at Kelso and over C&D in recent months. Another 7 lb rise may not prevent him completing a hat-trick with further improvement on cards.

Form: 6153-11

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Callum Bewley| T: J Ewart| OR: 107| D

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Sean Quinlan| T: G Boanas| OR: 100| D

11/4

Has won a pair of 2½m Sedgefield handicap hurdles this season. Made a sound return to fences when second of 7 at Carlisle (2m) 8 days ago and ought to be thereabouts again.

BRAODWAY JOE looked far from all out when scoring over C&D last month and can show he's still a step ahead of the handicapper. Theo Gillard takes a handy 5 lb off the back of the consistent Away At Dawn and he's feared most ahead of last week's Carlisle second Just Call Me Al.
