Heavy defeats both starts over fences for this yard in 2021 and, after a 20-month absence, he's offered little back over hurdles in recent weeks.

Modest maiden jumper who was rather unfortunate to fall at the first at Hereford in November. Had a wind op after and found only one too good at Southwell a fortnight ago. Task is to now back that up.

Winner of back-to-back juvenile hurdles in 2021 but has struggled in handicaps since. Hopes rest on switch to fences prompting a revival. Stamina for this far also to prove.

Runner-up in an Irish bumper last spring and showed more than previously over hurdles switched to a handicap when head-second at Doncaster (19.4f) in February. Just a fair fourth at Uttoxeter when last seen in May and now goes chasing (fell sole point start).

Fair form when placed in a brace of bumpers. Fifth on hurdles debut early last year but he's essentially disappointed since for Oliver Sherwood. Now goes chasing back from a break for new yard.

Positive start to chase career when runner-up in a brace of C&D handicaps in June. Disappointing effort upped to 23f last time but expected to bounce back dropped in trip in a change of headgear.

Still looking for first win and little to get excited about both starts back in 2023.

Remains a maiden after 22 runs but couple of runner-up efforts over 2m at Uttoxeter in recent weeks confirm he's competitive from his basement mark. Step back up in trip isn't an obvious move, though.

On first outing since leaving Paul Webber with tongue strap applied, he left previous form well behind when making a winning handicap debut at Southwell (20.4f) last week. Switches to fences and major player, even from out of the weights.

Forecasts

My Gift To You (1/2), Sinister Minister (15/2), Lamanver Storm (8/1), Can't Beat History (9/1), Lonimoss Bareliere (14/1), Scrappy Jack (22/1), Newtonian (33/1), Prince Of Bad Lins (40/1), Blackhillsofdakota (50/1)

Verdict

MY GIFT TO YOU made a mockery of his lowly opening mark starting out for a new yard at Southwell a week ago and, assuming he takes to fences, the follow up looks firmly on the cards. Sinister Minister is fancied to get back on track returned to this C&D, with Lonimoss Bareliere a threat if seeing this trip out.
