Useful hurdler for Dan Skelton but well beaten both starts for current yard.

Form: 1/3535-7

King Of The Lake^t²³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Chad Bament⁽⁷⁾| T: J Scott| OR: 124

3/1

Progressed well following a second breathing operation, recording a hat-trick under this rider in 8-runner handicap at Exeter (16.7f) in March. Reappears from an 11 lb higher mark in what looks a warmer race though, so more will be needed.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: H Cobden| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 122| DWS

3/1

Much improved when making third bumper start a winning one. Shaped with plenty of encouragement when just denied in novice hurdles at Wincanton and Kempton prior to completing a simple task under a confident ride at Exeter (21.6f). Yard going well and of interest on handicap debut/reappearance.

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁵⁾| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 121| D

7/4

Some encouragement only start in bumpers and, after another 11 months off, left his hurdling debut effort behind when 7½ lengths third to The New Lion in a maiden at Chepstow (19.4f) last October. Completed a simple task at Exeter (21.6f) 5 months later and retains plenty of potential.

Form: 35/31-

Ambion View¹⁹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR: 120

4/1

Made a winning start over hurdles in 2m2f maiden at Exeter last October. Showed similar form in defeat under a penalty but produced a lacklustre effort when well held on handicap debut at Plumpton on final outing. Needs to get back on track.

125/1

Fair maiden hurdler who won a minor event over fences at Le Touquet in 2023/24. Well held only subsequent outing that term however, and absent since (left Francois Nicolle in interim).

Forecasts

Kayf Dancer (7/4), J J Moon (3/1), King Of The Lake (3/1), Ambion View (4/1), Don't Wind Me Up (4/1), Punta Del Este (18/1), Road Senam (125/1)

KAYF DANCER is seemingly hard to train but he shaped well when third to The New Lion in a maiden hurdle at Chepstow last October and has to be of major interest now going handicapping with a good-value claimer in the saddle. JJ Moon is another with solid novice form and is much respected for a yard amongst the winners, while the selection's stablemate Don't Wind Me Up is capable of making his presence felt at this higher level.
