Vickers.Bet For Best Prices Guaranteed Handicap Hurdle

Has looked better than ever of late, overcoming mistakes when adding to his tally at Perth (20f) last month and matching that form from a 6 lb higher mark when runner-up at Uttoxeter (23.3f) 3 weeks ago. Has to enter calculations again.

Lightly-raced sort who rattled off a quick-fire hat-trick in handicap hurdles at Hereford (19.7f) in May. Made the frame on each of his last 2 starts latterly in novice company and he should be firmly in the mix again returned to handicaps.

Won a handicap hurdle for Noel Meade last May but yet to make an impact for current yard, well held eleventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (22.1f) with blinkers refitted 30 days ago. Cheekpieces go back on now but bit to prove despite sliding mark.

Won twice in 2023 at up to 25.7f. Well below par in 2 comeback runs this summer but is on a winning mark if a recent wind operation helps to spark a revival.

Fairly useful Flat performer who won a pair of novice hurdles at Newton Abbot (21.5f) last summer. Solid start for new yard when runner-up in handicap at that venue in May but not in quite the same form when fourth at Stratford (18.6f) 5 weeks ago. Still, he's no forlorn hope.

7-y-o mare who has built up a healthy strike rate in handicaps, looking as good as ever after 7 months off when landing 4-runner handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (21.5f) 45 days ago. Career-high mark to defy now but she's respected again.

Irish point winner who made a winning debut over hurdles at Hexham (20f) back in the autumn. Hasn't kicked on from that subsequently, including over fences, and he was below his best returned to hurdles for new yard at Uttoxeter (23.3f) 24 days ago. Others stronger.
