Landed back-to-back hurdle wins at up to 3m in the spring. Interesting chase newcomer back from 5 months off (has had wind surgery).

Can make mistakes but placed twice over 23f at Worcester over this summer and ought to be on the premises again if keeping the errors down.

Dual hurdle winner, latterly a 3m Chepstow handicap in April. A point background provides hope that she can go on to even better things over fences this time round. Big player for top yard.

Maiden over hurdles but got off the mark at the first time of asking over fences at Worcester in July. Two creditable efforts in defeat since but has nothing obviously in hand of his mark.

Three-time hurdle winner but lightly raced in recent times. Showed he retains his ability after 9 months off when fourth in Newton Abbot handicap hurdle in June but off again since. Probably best watched on this rather belated chase debut.

Forecasts

Florencethemachine (11/10), Magical Escape (9/4), A Definite Getaway (11/2), Ajp Kingdom (7/1), Valentino (18/1)

Verdict

FLORENCETHEMACHINE improved for the step up to 3m when successful over hurdles at Chepstow in the spring and a point success at the start of her career provides hope that she can do well over the larger obstacles. Fellow chase newcomer Magical Escape is feared most.
