Proved a different proposition under new tactics and in a change of headgear when making all at Kempton (3m, soft) but well held when unseated rider at Newbury next time and got no further than the fourth at Chepstow since.

Yet to score in 8 starts over fences but probably should have won when beaten only a nose on return from 8 months off at Ffos Las (21.5f) in December. Excuses on her next 2 outings before unseated back over hurdles latest. Player back down in class.

Won over fences at Ludlow (23.8f) for Milton Harris but lightly raced since. Better for belated return (for another yard) when fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (21.4f, good, 40/1) 16 days ago. Not taken lightly back over fences.

Successful 3 times over hurdles during 2022 and sprouted wings over fences at the start of last summer, completing a hat-trick at Bangor. Winless since, however, and well held last 2 starts after 5 months off.

Winning Irish pointer. Placed on 2 of his 3 starts in hunters but no show on hurdles debut and no better back chasing at Doncaster. Now returning from a further 6 months off.

Dual scorer (at up to 25.2f) at this course 15 month ago but has been more miss than hit since (well held last 3 starts). 9 lb out of weights.

Forecasts

Pilot Show (3/1), Seigneur Des As (5/1), Off To A Flyer (11/2), Can't Beat History (6/1), Heaven Smart (17/2), Gazette Bourgeoise (17/2), Pottlerath (9/1), Family Pot (14/1), Brave Starlight (20/1), Dentley De Mee (25/1)

Verdict

CAN'T BEAT HISTORY resumed progress when scoring over C&D when last seen in October and should have a big say if tuned up. Pilot Show should be thereabouts again with Gazette Bourgeoise another to consider.
