Runner-up sole outing in Irish points in March 2022 and shaped encouragingly on belated hurdling debut when second in maiden at Perth (20.2f, soft) last April. Pulled up at Uttoxeter next time, but he's one to note on return from another 9 months off.

Runner-up on completed start in Irish points and bit of promise when fourth of 10 in maiden at this course (21.9f, heavy) on hurdling 22 days ago, though ultimately finished well beaten. Major step forward required.

Looked to need the run when pulled up in Newbury maiden hurdle on debut, but having left Nicky Henderson he fared no better when tailed off a long way out at this course (21.9f, heavy) 22 days ago. Tongue strap now reached for.

Would have been placed but for unseating between the last 2 in an Irish point, but was never dangerous when fifth of 12 in maiden hurdle at Lingfield (19.5f, good to soft) in December. Pulled up at Chepstow 19 days ago and he looks one for the longer term.

40/1
Last of 6 finishers in an Irish point but showed ability when fourth of 11 in maiden at Sedgefield (19.8f, soft) on hurdling debut at the start of the month. Well held at Fakenham 9 days later, though he's worth another chance to build on his previous promise.

Always behind when pulled up in maiden hurdle at this course (21.9f, heavy) on debut, but again offered little at Chepstow 6 days ago. Looks to be up against it.

4/6
Bumper winner who is yet to score over hurdles but has finished runner-up at this course on 2 of her last 3 starts, unable to reel in the all-the-way winner in mares' novice (15.8f, heavy) 22 days ago. Leading contender back up in trip.

Forecasts

Followango (4/6), Dexterity (15/8), Fat Faced Columbo (9/1), Girls Best Friend (22/1), Jack's Jury (40/1), Ferando (250/1), Nil Vert (300/1)

Verdict

FOLLOWANGO produced another creditable effort when second at this course earlier in the month, just lacking the winner's speed dropped back in trip, so she could be ready to open her hurdles account this time around. Dexterity has been lightly raced but is feared most given the promise of his hurdling debut, with Jack's Jury the pick of the remainder.
