4/6

Smart hurdler who won has made a good start over fences this summer, winning 2½m novices at Uttoxeter (beat Cary's Commodity) and Worcester. Taken to give the weight away and complete the hat-trick.

7/4

Useful hurdler and translated all that ability to fences in recent months, 5 lengths second to Hang In There at Uttoxeter before going one better at Stratford. Meets Emma Lavelle's charge on 5 lb better terms now so it should be closer between them this time.

Form: F820-21

Shetland Bus^t⁵⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 115

15/2

Completed hat-trick over hurdles at Perth last summer for Justin Landy but has looked a long way off that form in 4 outings over fences for this yard, falling heavily at Fakenham latest.

Hang In There (4/6), Carys' Commodity (7/4), Stoner's Choice (5/2), Shetland Bus (15/2)

HANG IN THERE had 5 lengths to spare over Carys' Commodity at Uttoxeter in May. The latter is 4 lb better off this time so it should be closer between them but Emma Lavelle's 8-y-o is still taken to come out on top again.
