Sodexo Live! Juvenile Handicap Hurdle (GBB Race)

Dual winner in France, including a listed race, but well below that form in 2 runs in graded contests over here for new yard this year. Difficult to assess at present.

Useful juvenile over 17f in France, winning twice, but has made a distinctly underwhelming start on these shores, easy to back in tongue tie and producing a disappointing finishing effort at Kelso. Cheekpieces added for this handicap debut. Tricky to fancy.

Fair on Flat and has quickly reached a higher level over hurdles, winning pair of early-season juveniles and third in Grade 2s on last 3 starts, albeit well held in the Finesse 9 weeks ago. Should be competitive now handicapping.

Fairly useful Flat performer who has quickly reached a similar level over hurdles, winning at Fontwell on Boxing Day and running well behind a very good prospect at Huntingdon recently. Respected back in a handicap.

Fair Flat winner in Ireland for Gavin Cromwell and started well over hurdles for this yard with victories at Kempton and Taunton. In the process of bouncing back when crashing out at the last in listed juvenile at Musselburgh before finding the Fred Winter too hot. Tongue tie goes on now.

Expensive Flat winner in Ireland and has improved with each run over hurdles, sticking to the task behind an easy winner at Newbury 4 weeks ago. Can go well on handicap debut if cutting out the mistakes.

Took a junior hurdle at Exeter in December and made the most of an excellent opportunity at Market Rasen a fortnight ago. Could do better now handicapping.

Fair maiden on Flat in Ireland and going the right way over hurdles for Jo Davis, making a winning start to his handicap career when seeing off 11 rivals over 2m at Huntingdon in good style earlier this month. Can go well again up 7 lb.
