Little promise both starts at Hereford 3 months apart. Cheekpieces on.

Winner of sole start between the flags and while he didn't show much starting out under Rules in an Irish bumper last spring, there were certainly positives to glean from a trio of placed efforts over hurdlers, most recently over this C&D. Should be bang there.

Fair efforts on first 2 starts in bumpers before well held on latest outing at Warwick (2m, heavy) on New Year's Eve, though possibly unsuited by conditions. Promise in a brace of hurdles outings in recent weeks.

Presenting gelding who changed hands for £200,000 after runner-up sole start in Irish points last November. In need of the experience when tenth in a course bumper in November but positives to draw from opening hurdles run last month. Tongue tie now on.

4,500 gns 7-y-o, Califet gelding. Dam (b109), dual bumper winner, closely related to very smart hurdler (stayed 3m) Fire Dragon. Placed last 2 of 3 starts in Irish points but fitted with a tongue tie, his opening hurdles effort was hardly brimming with promise.

Bumper winner and fair maiden hurdler for Ross O'Sullivan in Ireland. Off 7 months and shaped as though in need of the run on last month's stable debut.

9/4
Wide-margin winner of sole completed start in maiden points and shaped as if better for the run when third in a maiden hurdle here (19.4f) in December. Upped to this C&D and found nothing in February so connections quick to apply a tongue tie.

Much improved when narrowly beaten in 10-runner handicap at Exeter (19f, soft) on debut over fences in February, sticking to task. Another sound effort when fifth back over hurdles at Newbury and she sets the standard back in a novice.

Forecasts

Great Name That (15/8), State Of Power (9/4), Lagonda (11/4), State Of Fame (10/1), Much Too Dear (12/1), Not Long Left (25/1), Shot Tower (80/1), Call Me Rafa (200/1)

Verdict

LAGONDA has displayed improved form in handicaps in recent weeks, and in receipt of weight all round back in maiden company, she looks the one to beat. A tongue tie may help State of Power but he still has a lot to prove, so Great Name That is feared most.
