Scored at Exeter in December but he didn't go on in the manner expected subsequently, below-form third at Chepstow final run. Has a bit to prove after 6 months off.
|
6/4, made a winning return in 5-runner novice hurdle at Ludlow (21.2f) in May. Goes into handicaps after a break and much respected.
|
Already a dual hurdles winner at Taunton and Exeter in February. 11/1, only fourteenth of 17 in handicap at Sandown (19.8f) in March but he has undergone breathing surgery and remains with potential.
|
Ended last term on the up with 2m wins at Ffos Las and Huntingdon before posting an excellent second in 2m4f Chepstow handicap. Player on his return.
|
Signed off for last term with good third in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (25f). Off 7 months but he merits consideration on the back of a wind op.
|
Fairly useful Flat winner who came good at the fourth time of asking in this sphere at Ffos Las (2m4f) in February. Didn't get home over 2m7f at Exeter on his final run for Philip Hobbs and not discounted back in trip on his yard debut.
|
Won twice from 4 starts over hurdles in France, latest a 10-runner juvenile event at Compiegne (16.9f, soft) in March. Now with Lucy Wadham and warrants a second look in the market on yard/handicap debut.
|
Ended his time in Ireland with 2m Tramore maiden hurdle win last July and he posted a good second for his new stable in 2m handicap here in May after 10 months off. Considered.
|
Hereford maiden winner in January who has resumed with two solid third placings in handicaps around 2m4f at Warwick and Southwell. Shortlisted.
|
Progressive hurdler who bids for a hat-trick after 2m4f handicap wins at Huntingdon and Southwell in April. Hiked up 11 lb but he's very much one to consider on his seasonal return.
|
Bumper winner in France who came good at the fourth time of asking over hurdles for this yard in 19f Fontwell novice in February. Proved disappointing on switch to handicapping since, though, so needs to bounce back here.
|
Much improved in cheekpieces once sent into handicaps last term, scoring twice at Taunton in the spring. Has an 11 lb rise to overcome but he remains firmly in the picture.
|
Fair form over hurdles in France. Posted a good second in 2m novice here 21 days ago so he's one to consider.
|
Off 16 months since landing 17f handicap hurdle at Fontwell for Paul Nicholls. Has his fitness to prove on his comeback/yard debut.
|
Resumed winning ways in 6-runner handicap hurdle over C&D in August. Up 3 lb so she's in the picture again.
|
Signed off for last term with 2m2f win at Market Rasen but he offered little after 9 months off over C&D 21 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Forecasts
Hardy Boy (7/2), Kingofthewest (9/2), Iberio (6/1), Branson Missouri (9/1), Petty Cash (9/1), Hermes Boy (10/1), Zestful Hope (10/1), Wewillgowithplanb (10/1), Gris Majeur (14/1), Kadex (16/1), Crossing The Bar (22/1), These Happy Daze (28/1), Has Troke (33/1), Russian Service (50/1), Jobsonfire (66/1), Light In The Sky (125/1)
HARDY BOY ended last term firmly on the up and is taken to resume winning ways on his return for his in-form yard. Petty Cash also has better days ahead of him and warrants plenty of respect on his reappearance with Iberio and Kingofthewest two more who can have a say in a very open handicap.
- Hardy Boy7/2
- Petty Cash9/1
- Iberio6/1
