C&D winner who returned to form when third of 9 in handicap hurdle at Haydock (24.3f, soft) 27 days ago, having run of race. Just 1 lb above last winning mark and not out of things.

Winning Irish pointer who got off the mark under Rules when easily opening his account in a Chepstow maiden (19.5f) in December. Not really built on that, however, and others more appealing.

Much improved when runner-up in Ludlow maiden (23.8f) on penultimate start and took further step forward when second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (21.6f, heavy) 22 days ago, sticking to task. 3 lb higher now but remains relatively unexposed.

Back to winning ways at Kempton (21f) in February and not disgraced when seventh in stronger contest over same C&D 31 days ago. Others look better treated, though.

Last season was a write-off but he scored twice in points in November and has been in good form back hurdling this year, making the frame 3 times at Exeter. Cheekpieces back on. Not taken lightly.

C&D winner who returned to form (back over hurdles) when third of 8 in handicap at Exeter (23.1f, heavy, 12/1) 28 days ago. 1 lb lower now and warrants respect.

Returned to form, in first-time cheekpieces, when opening his account at Carlisle (25f, heavy) in February and backed that up with good second of 5 in handicap hurdle at Hexham (23.3f, heavy) 33 days ago, clear of rest. Remains feasibly treated and must enter calculations.

Found improvement, dropped in trip/in first-time cheekpieces, when second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, soft) 15 days ago. 5 lb higher, returned to stiffer test of stamina, and remains to be seen if he can build on that.
