Lightly-raced hurdle winner who placed 3 times in handicaps last spring but was disappointing on his return at Exeter (21.6f) last month, carried his awkwardly under pressure prior to being pulled up. Bit to prove now.
|
Has won a couple of races in maiden/novice company but hasn't looked like winning a handicap. Did show a bit more in a 0-100 last time but he may need further leniency from the handicapper.
|
Well-below form on final run for Barry Bannan on New Years' Day, pulled-up over fences. Only went with minor promise in a weak race on stable debut last month, would have finished a well-beaten third but for a faller. Needs more.
|
Disappointed on yard debut on the Flat but justified support back over hurdles when landing a Huntingdon handicap last month (form franked by second). Ran creditably to place on two subsequent starts, only beaten by a better treated rival at Sedgefield 3 days ago. Respected in first-time visor.
|
Best effort to date over hurdles when runner-up over C&D in October, still displayed signs of greenness. Disappointing on handicap debut at Hereford (seventh of 15, 16.2f) in December. Didn't look the most straightforward of rides, but he should appreciate the return to this track.
|
Left the impression that he was back on a workable mark when finding just one too good with blinkers refitted at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) in March, but failed to build on that promise when sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Taunton later that month. Handicapper has given him another chance.
|
Bagged handicaps at Fakenham and at Plumpton last season but well-held over hurdles and on the Level of late. Best to look elsewhere.
|
Third of 8 in maiden at this course last April and shaped better than the bare result at Fontwell the following month. Largely raced on the Flat since but ran other creditable race reverted to hurdles when runner-up at Fakenham on handicap debut 23 days ago. Solid claims with Bowen taking the ride.

Forecasts
Tara Iti (6/5), Goodwin Face (5/1), Arenas Del Tiempo (5/1), John Betjeman (11/2), Jubilee Gold (11/1), Clinton Lane (12/1), Mi Sueno (28/1), Hardy Buck (40/1)
ARENAS DEL TIEMPO has shown promise in three starts since making her hurdles debut, the latest when runner-up on handicap debut last month. She's taken to go one better under Sean Bowen. John Betjeman has been given another chance by the handicapper and will be a threat if on a going day, while Tara Iti should continue her recent run of good form over hurdles.
- John Betjeman11/2
- Tara Iti6/5
