2/1

Has thrived since returning to hurdles and resumed winning ways in 7-runner handicap over C&D in February. Found only the 145-rated Brentford Hope too good back here 4 weeks ago and nothing of that one's class in opposition now.

From The Clouds^t²⁸

Nonbinding²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Oliver Boyden⁽⁷⁾| T: V Thompson| OR: 118

150/1

Dual winner over hurdles over 2m in Ireland in autumn 2022. Missed a while and pulled up twice in points for new yard last month. Hard to fancy.

Coniston George³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| OR: 116| D

11/4

Has done well switched to hurdling, winning twice at up to 17f. Not seen to best effect in messy race at Ayr (20.4f) 5 weeks ago and remains with potential back in trip for handicap debut.

Form: 16-1713

One More Stroke³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 115| D

9/4

Has made a promising start over hurdles, winning novices at Catterick in January and Carlisle (17f, always holding on having been left clear 2 out) in March. Open to further improvement from potentially lenient opening mark.

Form: 22-211

Forecasts

Horn Cape (2/1), One More Stroke (9/4), Coniston George (11/4), From The Clouds (9/2), Nonbinding (150/1)

ONE MORE STROKE can go on improving now handicapping and the hat-trick could be on the cards. Dual C&D winner From The Clouds has a similar profile and looks set for another big run along with the more exposed but in-form Horn Cape.
