Katate Dori^t,v⁴^{(ex 7)}

Age: 7| Weight: 12-7| J: Dylan Johnston⁽³⁾| T: S Thomas| OR: 110

5/4

Bumper winner in early 2023 who immediately bettered his hurdles form when easily making a successful debut over fences at Exeter on New Year's Day. More to come and obvious claims under a penalty.

Form: 333-541

Ultra Beat²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Alice Stevens| T: H D Daly| OR: 110

13/2

Improved model this term, second on handicap chase debut at Bangor (3m) in October. Fell early at Hereford but quickly back on track when third at Warwick last month. Likely to stay long distances.

Form: 5P-32F3

Fairlawn Flyer^p²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Shane Fenelon| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 105

14/1

Won at Cartmel in August 2023 and looked set to coast in at Fontwell the following month only to go lame before 3 out. Off 15 months after that but shaped as if retaining ability when fourth at Kelso on comeback 4 weeks ago.

Form: 321PP-4

Stellar Stream^p³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Callum Pritchard⁽³⁾| T: K Woollacott| OR: 105| D

6/1

Gained a deserved breakthrough success over fences (in first-time cheekpieces) in staying event at Bangor. Failed to complete next 2 starts and looked rusty at Ffos Lason return but better than bare result at Exeter last month. Not taken lightly back on winning mark with headgear re-applied.

Form: 31UP-9P

Shot Boii^t,v²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Gearoid Harney⁽⁶⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 103

7/2

Becoming well handicapped and showed enough when third at Lingfield last month to suggest he'll be able to take advantage near to hand, no extra only late on.

Form: 42P-833

Fortunefavorsdbold³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Jamie Brace⁽³⁾| T: Christian Williams| OR: 101

22/1

Fair winning hurdler in Ireland and left previous form for this yard well behind with a brace of handicap chase wins at Huntingdon/Lingfield. Struggled since, however.

Form: P7-74P5

The Big Reveal^p²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: James Turner| T: G Harris| OR: 85

10/1

Yet to match debut hurdles form, including switched to fences handicaps this season after 20 months off, tried in this headgear when seventh at Lingfield latest.

Form: 467/P57

Katate Dori (5/4), Shot Boii (7/2), Stellar Stream (6/1), Ultra Beat (13/2), The Big Reveal (10/1), Fairlawn Flyer (14/1), Fortunefavorsdbold (22/1), Kadex (25/1)

KATATE DORI took very well to his new discipline when making a winning chase bow at Exeter on Wednesday and can defy a penalty given how much he had in hand that day. Stellar Stream was better than the bare result at Exeter last month and is interesting back on a winning mark with cheekpieces re-fitted, while Shot Boii shaped as if his turn is near at Lingfield.
