Gallery By Symphony Handicap Hurdle (Div 2)

Fit from the Flat when producing an improved showing to finish second at Fakenham last time. Cheekpieces go back on and he can go one better if the race doesn't come too soon.

10/3 and visored for 1st time, creditable second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (21.2f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Holding form well and seems likely to be thereabouts again.

9/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Catterick (19.2f, soft) on debut over fences 135 days ago. Had shown modest form over hurdles prior to that and now returns to this discipline.

Lost his way over hurdles and returned from a 13-month absence with a tame effort at Kelso a month ago, so hard to make any sort of case for.

It's now 14 runs since his sole success back in 2022, but there's been a bit more encouragement on his last couple of efforts. Not ruled out back up in trip.

Won his final two outings for Milton Harris last summer and, having been sold cheaply, showed he retains ability returning from a lengthy absence when third at Uttoxeter last time. Not ruled out.

Fair form on the second of 2 starts in bumpers, but no better than mid-division in a trio of novice hurdles last season for Fergal O'Brien. Shaped as needing after 11 months off in December and is best watched again after a further 5-month absence.

Ran to a fair level in bumpers for Michael Appleby in 2022. After 18 months off, hasn't offered much over hurdles, including in handicap at Sedgefield last time, so has a bit to prove.

Is a long time without a win and hasn't been showing much of late, so set for a struggle from out of the weights.
