Ran to a fairly useful level over hurdles last season, winning a Fontwell maiden in February. After 5 months off, bettered that form at the first attempt over fences when successful in Uttoxeter handicap 22 days ago. Open to progress and he can score again.
|
Dual juvenile hurdle winner in 2021/22 who got back to winning ways in a Fontwell handicap (19.2f) when last seen in May. Interesting to see how strong the betting vibes are now switching to fences on his return.
|
Gained reward for his consistency last season when scoring at Fontwell (17.8f) on Boxing Day, though finished the campaign with a couple of below-par efforts. Back on track after 6 months off when second at Uttoxeter last time, albeit no match for General Medrano.
|
Wide-margin winner at Stratford (17f) on third chase start last season but has struggled for consistency since, running one of his lesser races at the same course (19.4f) last time. Capable of getting involved if on a going day.
|
Notched fifth career success over fences at Southwell (20.4f) in November and, after finishing down the field at Kempton in February, soon back to form when runner-up at Plumpton (19.8f) the following month. May just be vulnerable on his return.
|
After 10 months off (had a wind op), shaped well when runner-up at Southwell in January but went the wrong way from that effort in his 2 subsequent outings, finishing well held at Market Rasen when last seen in April. On a workable mark but others more persuasive.

Forecasts
General Medrano (8/11), In The Air (7/2), Sea Prince (7/1), Rose Sea Has (7/1), Generous Day (22/1), Out On The Tear (25/1)
GENERAL MEDRANO created a good impression when making a successful start over fences at Uttoxeter earlier this month, impressing with his jumping, and he can follow up with improvement to come. In The Air returned to winning ways over hurdles when last seen and is feared most on his chase debut, with Sea Prince the pick of the remainder.
- General Medrano8/11
- In The Air7/2
- Sea Prince7/1
