Maiden over hurdles but, having won an Irish point before joining Micky Hammond, showed much improved form on his second chase start when landing Newcastle handicap (20.1f) in January. Can follow up with more still to offer over fences.

11/1
Winner on his hurdles debut last season but hasn't gone on from that since, making little impact in handicap at Carlisle (2m) on his chase bow in December. Pulled up last time, though it remains early days over fences with cheekpieces on first time.

8/1
Recorded back-to-back wins over hurdles (including at this course) to end 2021/22 and made the frame in all 4 outings last term. However, has finished well held both starts sent chasing this season, so others are more persuasive.

Remains a maiden but, having had another wind op, returned to form when runner-up in handicap at Sedgefield (19.3f) 22 days ago, proving his effectiveness at the trip. Could be thereabouts once more.

7/2
Didn't offer much in novice hurdles and his first 2 starts in handicap chases, but fitted with a tongue strap he left his previous form behind when runner-up at Catterick (19.2f) in December. Can make his presence felt.

Nineteen NH runs since his sole success, which came over hurdles back in 2021. Made the frame in handicap chases at Catterick and Huntingdon this winter, but lesser effort at the latter course 9 days ago. Looks to be up against it.

Forecasts

Carrigeen Castle (15/8), Robins Field (7/2), King Of The Hill (7/2), Great Raffles (8/1), Voice Of Hope (17/2), Attention All (11/1)

Verdict

Successful in an Irish point early last year, CARRIGEEN CASTLE made his second chase start a winning one at Newcastle last month and he can score again with further progress to come. Robins Field bounced back to form on his latest outing and could be the biggest threat, ahead of King of The Hill.
