Lightly-raced sort who got off the mark in 25f handicap hurdle at Plumpton in October. Good third of 13 in handicap at Wincanton (24.7f) next time and heavy ground perhaps an excuse for a heavy defeat at Uttoxeter in December.
|
Won a 20.5f Market Rasen novice hurdle (20.5f) in May 2021 but no impact in 3 handicaps since returning from a long absence. Others arrive with more pressing claims.
|
Heavily backed on second start for Olly Murphy fitted with headgear and showed much-improved form when successful at Fakenham last week. Unpenalised for that so claims are fairly obvious.
|
Fortunate to score over fences at Uttoxeter in September. Respectable in-frame efforts in chase/hurdle at Ludlow next 2 starts but off the bridle early at Doncaster a month ago.
|
Represents an excellent yard but little to shout about after 4 starts.
|
Placed twice over fences during summer of 2021 but off since so well-being is an unknown. Market will guide.
|
Upped to 23.9f and strong at the finish when fourth at Taunton in December. This trip should therefore suit and he's not yet exposed.
|
Multiple winner in Ireland and scored for this yard at Sedgefield in April 2021. Hard to get excited by what she's achieved over hurdles this season.
|
No impact in 4 starts since going down the handicap route and it's easy enough to look elsewhere upped in trip.
|
Poor form in bumpers/over hurdles at up to 3m. Cheekpieces on.

Forecasts
Dev Of Tara (5/6), Lord Bill (15/2), Harry's Hottie (10/1), Kilganer Queen (10/1), Viking's Way (10/1), The Skiffle King (12/1), Fantomas (14/1), High Sheriff (16/1), Design Icon (25/1), Miss Antipova (40/1)
DEV OF TARA landed a gamble on second start for Olly Murphy at Fakenham last week and, given he's unpenalised for that, his follow-up claims look fairly obvious. Lord Bill should relish this trip and is feared most, with Miss Antipova one to monitor in the betting.
