Scored three times over fences around 2m in 2024 but he's been pulled up on his last two starts at Musselburgh this year. Cheekpieces are reached for now.

Made a winning start in this sphere in 5-runner handicap over C&D 25 days ago, cruising 5½ lengths clear of Nathan Wells. Big shout despite taking a 7 lb weights rise.

Signed off with Philip Hobbs & Johnson White with a creditable second of 7 in handicap chase at Worcester (16.5f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Can't be discounted starting out for another new yard here.

Reliable sort who got back to winning ways in 6-runner handicap chase at Hexham (15.6f, good) 19 days ago. Up 3 lb but he can go well again.

Remains a maiden after 19 runs. Off 17 months before a well-held fourth of 7 in novice hurdle at Kelso (16.2f, good) 14 days ago. Can take a step forward reverted to fences.

10/1
Ex-Irish maiden hurdler made an encouraging start over fences for his current yard when second of 5 to Schmilsson in handicap over C&D 25 days ago, though no match for winner. More is needed from 5 lb "wrong" in the weights here.

Forecasts

Schmilsson (8/11), Dream Jet (9/2), Salamanca Bay (8/1), Breizh River (17/2), Nathan Wells (10/1), Champ De Gane (33/1)

Verdict

Olly Murphy's SCHMILSSON got off to the perfect start over fences when an easy C&D scorer and this fairly useful winning hurdler is faniced to make light of a 7 lb rise in the weights. The consistent Dream Jet is feared most on the back of his Hexham success, with Salamanca Bay not ruled out on his first run for Laura Morgan.

  1. Schmilsson8/11
  2. Dream Jet9/2
  3. Salamanca Bay8/1
