Successful start in 15-runner Ludlow novice hurdle over this trip last month, well on top at the finish. That form looks decent and he can improve. Big shout under penalty.

2/5
Solid start over hurdles and has bumped into several good horses in maidens/novices, unable to match useful rival with bundles of speed at Doncaster back from wind op last time. Big player.

Half-brother to 2 winners, including smart hurdler/fairly useful chaser Up And Go. Wears hood. Makes some appeal on paper, though yard don't get too many winners first time out.

Encouraging winning start over hurdles for new stable at Leicester over this trip in the autumn. Not so good at Huntingdon 2 months on though (jumped poorly) and back after a wind op now.

Modest maiden on Flat (stays 1½m), well held when last seen in 2020. Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler Skeaping so she could make an impact in this sphere.

Forecasts

Boombawn (2/5), Fortunedefortunata (4/1), Parliament Hill (11/2), Windy Cove (40/1), Herecomeshogan (66/1), Maillot Blanc (80/1), Codebook (200/1)

Verdict

Probably a match between the promising BOOMBAWN and Ludlow-winner Fortunedefortunata, with Dan Skelton's charge narrowly preferred. He's kept some good company over hurdles thus far, running well again at Doncaster last time, and it's surely only a matter of time before he opens his account.
