Lorna Brooke Amateur Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Won maiden at Kilbeggan last summer but showed little in pair of starts for this yard in the autumn. Needs to recapture best form to defy this mark.

Good second at Ffos Las in March but was below form there last time, Very much a hit-and-miss performer but is now 3 lb lower than last winning mark and can pose a threat if in the mood.

Placed over hurdles back in November (most recent start in this sphere) and won over fences at Huntingdon in March. Respectable effort over the larger obstacles last time, so isn't discounted.

Better known as a chaser but hasn't yet been able to take advantage of a sliding mark this season. Goes over hurdles for only the second time since 2019, and needs the switch, or the addition of cheekpieces, to rejuvenate him.

Now lower in the weights than for last win and ran his best race for a while when fourth here (15.8f) 15 days ago. That was still below his best, though, and he remains unproven over this trip.

Eleven runs since last win in 2020 but has twice finished runner-up in recent months and was in process of running creditably when falling at last at Fakenham last time. Leading claims if none the worse.

Won seller at Stratford last season and has run near his best when third on his 2 most recent outings, including over a trip probably short of his best at Fakenham last time. Can make presence felt.

Won at Huntingdon in November and has made frame all 3 starts since, though perhaps was slightly disappointing when beaten favourite over C&D 15 days ago. Capable of better, though, and will take the beating.

In frame last 3 chase starts and is weighted to go well on his return to hurdling. Little form in this sphere previously, but he ranks an interesting contender.

Veteran scored at Wincanton in March 2021 but his recent efforts haven't been as promising and is probably up against it again.
