Modest maiden on Flat (stays 9f) who shaped with no promise sent hurdling after 16 months off at Carlisle recently.
|
Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 2m), creditable third last time. Sold for just 6,000 gns from Ralph Beckett in September.
|
Headstrong sort who made the frame in a maiden/novice last winter but has been disappointing since, making no impact back hurdling after 4 months off at Kelso last time.
|
Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 1¼m) and showed an aptitude for hurdling with a tongue tie refitted when fourth at Sedgefield (16.8f) 51 days ago. Had undergone a breathing operation and likely to improve.
|
Useful performer on Flat (stays 2¼m), below form in November Handicap recently. Found only one too good on Catterick hurdle debut in December 2022 prior to winning jumper bumper. Should have more to offer making a belated return to this sphere.
|
Fair handicapper on Flat, stays 2¼m. Showed some aptitude for hurdling when sixth of 10 at Carlisle last month but was well positioned.
|
Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 1½m), left D. Borad, won at Hamilton in September, then runner-up next 2 starts before possibly finding race coming too soon last time. Not dismissed if transferring that form to hurdles at the first attempt.
|
Modest maiden handicapper on Flat (stays 1¼m), respectable efforts last 2 starts.

Forecasts
Wise Eagle (1/3), Sea Legend (6/1), Jet Patrol (15/2), Zephlyn (12/1), Susiesparkle (14/1), Clan Chieftain (33/1), Violeta (80/1), Barrister Blaster (250/1)
SEA LEGEND seems likely to build on his opening effort in this sphere at Sedgefield, especially with this slightly sharper test promising to suit. He gets the nod ahead of Wise Eagle, who should have more to offer making a belated return to hurdling, while Susiesparkle is another who could go well if taking to this new discipline.
- Sea Legend6/1
