Confirmed promise of hurdling debut when justifying favouritism in 5-runner novice at this C&D (good to soft) 65 days ago, staying on well. Shortlisted as he now goes handicapping.
|
Has been proving consistent over hurdles. However, wasted what had looked a good opportunity when second in 3-runner novice at Doncaster in March, looking awkward under pressure. Visor on 1st time on return but is best treated with caution.
|
Belatedly opened his account under Rules when scoring in handicap at Warwick (25f) in May and again ran creditably when third back there later the same month. Can give another good account.
|
Made most of good opportunity when successful in maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter in July, before shaping well when third on handicap debut at this course (20f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Leading contender up in trip.
|
Has shown fair form over hurdles so far, no match for odds-on favourite when second of 3 in novice hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, good) in March. Could go well returning for handicap debut for in-form yard.
|
Hinted at promise in bumpers and is going the right way over hurdles, third of 4 in steadily-run novice hurdle at Newbury (20.5f, good). Off 6 months ahead of handicap debut.
|
Bumper winner who gained a deserved first success in this discipline when last seen in handicap at Catterick (25.3f, good to soft) 7 months ago. May have more to offer as a stayer.
|
Won sole point in April and has made the frame both starts over hurdles, third of 8 in novice at Kempton (24.6f, heavy) in January. Off 9 months but could get involved on handicap debut.
|
Recorded second C&D handicap win in 3 starts when successful here in August. Continued in good heart when runner-up at Uttoxeter the following month, but rare poor effort when pulled up last time. Could bounce back.
|
Runner-up twice in bumpers for Mags Mullins in 2018 and ran best race over hurdles when filling the same position in a Sedgefield novice when last seen in February 2020. Has since left Olly Murphy/had wind op. Best watched.

Forecasts
Festive Glory (7/2), Biowavego (9/2), Lounge Lizard (5/1), Spike Jones (5/1), Pilot Show (13/2), One For The Wall (8/1), Nickelsonthedime (14/1), Present Storm (14/1), Rebel Intentions (25/1), Kerrkenny Gold (125/1)
BIOWAVEGO shaped well on handicap debut at this course last month, outpaced before running on late to claim a place, so he can build on that effort to resume winning ways now upped in trip. He can see off the challenge of Nickelsonthedime, while C&D winner Festive Glory could have more to offer now handicapping.
- Biowavego9/2
- Nickelsonthedime14/1
