Runner-up in bumpers and also placed in a Newcastle novice hurdle in February. Does need to shrug off a poor effort on last month's handicap debut, though.

4/5
Some promise in bumpers and novice hurdles for Evan Williams and made a sound start in handicaps for new stable when length second to William of York over 2m at Wetherby last month. Longer trip should suit and likely has a race in him soon.

3/1
Bounced straight back from a disappointing handicap debut when beating the reopposing Sonnemoser a length at Wetherby (2m, soft) under Tristan Durrell last month. 4 lb rise unlikely to prevent another prominent showing if his stamina holds now stepping up in trip.

In reasonable heart on the level over the winter. Modest form in 2m novice hurdles in recent weeks but could take a step forward now handicapping over a longer trip.

Won twice in the first half of 2021/22 campaign. Largely struggled since but latest Southwell third was a slight step back in the right direction. Needs to build upon that now.

Dual hurdles winner late in 2021 but his form has nosedived since. 9 lb out of the weights here and a big outsider.

Forecasts

Sonnemoser (4/5), Samtara (15/8), William Of York (3/1), Hardy Boy (13/2), City Roller (8/1), Black Lightning (10/1), Percy Willis (11/1), Ace Time (80/1)

Verdict

SONNEMOSER was behind William of York when second on his 2m handicap/yard debut at Wetherby last month, but he is 8 lb better off at the weights with Dan Skelton's charge this time if jockey claims are taken into account, and today's extra yardage promises to suit so he's taken to turn the tables. Last year's winner Hardy Boy looks best of the remainder.
