Ran one of his better races when second of 8 at Taunton on his penultimate outing but typically failed to back that up, pulling up at Worcester last time. Hard to have any great confidence in on his first start after leaving Syd Hosie.

Winning hurdler but has made very little impact over fences to date, still yet to convince with his jumping in this sphere. Tongue strap applied but he's hard to fancy.

In good heart over hurdles in the autumn and picked up where he left off after a 7-month break when landing an 11-runner event at Southwell (24.3f, good to soft, 10/1) 8 days ago. Interesting runner off lower mark back over fences.

Irish point winner didn't need to improve on her previous efforts to land a 4-runner handicap chase at Huntingdon (23.6f, good) 16 days ago. Up 3 lb here but looks to have found a good opportunity to follow up.

Won a relatively weak 4-runner maiden at Hereford on hurdles debut but struggled subsequently and fared no better sent chasing at Stratford last month. Significantly up in trip now.

Forecasts

Tommydan (11/8), Sharp Note (11/4), Heneryetta Bay (18/5), Milanford (6/1), Wildfire Warrior (12/1)

Verdict

HENERYETTA BAY has made an encouraging start to her chasing career, and whilst evidently not the most straightforward, she should take all the beating again in a race that appears to lack depth. Tommydan won over hurdles at Southwell last week and is the obvious threat from his lower chase mark.
