At The Races App Form Study Handicap Hurdle

Bumper/maiden hurdle winner who struck at the third time of asking over fences in 4-runner Stratford handicap over a year ago. Held form subsequently (including over hurdles) and arrives fit from the Flat, so worthy of consideration.

Clicked in blinkers this summer, winning twice at Market Rasen before completing the hat-trick over C&D. Pulled up at former track since but every chance he can bounce back after a short break.

Useful hurdler/chaser at his best but appears to be on the decline judged on what he's shown since returning from a break/wind op in March.

Dual winner last summer and ran best race in handicaps when second in 2m event here in May. Hasn't fired since (broke blood vessel last time) but could bounce back returning to this track.

Much improved as he shed his maiden tag in runaway style upped to 20f at Uttoxeter in June. Has remained in form since and is fully expected to be on the premises again.

Form tailed off for Neil Mulholland but he's on a fair mark and has made positive steps for this yard, coming from an unpromising position to finish fourth at Market Rasen last time. Not ruled out.

Making his fourth start for his current yard, returned to form when landing handicap at Wetherby (21.2f) in April. Has continued in good heart since, stretched by the trip when fourth at Cartmel last time. Should be on the premises back at a suitable distance.

Capitalised on a falling mark in workmanlike fashion when fending off Cousu Main over C&D in June. Disappointing at Market Rasen since but too soon to completely write off.

Bangor winner for Graeme McPherson in 2021. Off 2 years and has failed to beat a rival in 2 outings this term, so plenty to prove.

Scored at Perth in April and at least respectable efforts there in two outings since. Likely to strip fitter for latest fourth and can't be ruled out with cheekpieces back on.

Latest win in hurdle at Perth in July. 13/2, good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good) 18 days ago. Might get his own way in front and should be hard to pass.
