4/9

Pretty useful on the Flat (stays 1¼m) and he quickly surpassed the form he displayed in pair of maiden/novice hurdles when running out a smooth winner of an 8-runner handicap at Huntingdon (15.8f) 16 days ago. Appeals as the type to progress further and he's shortlisted here.

11/4

Fairly useful on Flat and she built on pick of her hurdles form following wind op/5 months off when successful in 5-runner mares' maiden at Haydock (15.6f) last month, her jumping looking an asset. Will need to settle better now handicapping but she undoubtedly remains with potential.

Uhtred Ragnarson³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Philip Armson⁽³⁾| T: A King| OR: 102

7/1

Placed once from 3 starts in bumpers and showed ability in 2 hurdle runs, second of 4 in Junior Hurdle at Chepstow (2m) 4 weeks ago. In good hands and switch to handicaps now but the assessor has taken no chances with his opening mark.

Indemnity (4/9), Soleil D'arizona (11/4), Seraphic (7/2), Uhtred Ragnarson (7/1)

A fairly useful performer on the Flat, INDEMNITY continued his theme of race-by-race progress over hurdles when taking advantage of a lenient opening mark at Huntingdon 16 days ago. The manner of that victory suggests there's further improvement in the offing and he can follow-up. Soleil a'Arizona and Seraphic both arrive with reasons to recommend them also and head up the dangers in that order.
