Very useful at his best for Harry Fry but made an inauspicious start for new yard when tailed off in handicap hurdle at Worcester (12/1) 215 days ago, with usual cheekpieces and tongue strap left off. Off a further 7 months but worth a market check down in grade on second start for new yard.
|
Useful at best and returned to hurdling in November after an unsuccessful spell over fences and ran respectably on first two starts. Pulled up at Haydock (15/2) 21 days ago, ran no sort of race from mid-field, jumped poorly and struggling badly after the eighth. Something to prove.
|
Mixed form over hurdles and fences last year, shaping better than the bare result on his return from 7 months off at Aintree in November. Proved a disappointment when well-beaten eighth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (3/1) 42 days ago. Not ruled out if back on song.
|
Progressive sort who won on handicap debut at Cheltenham in November before following up at Leicester. Third of 15 in Lanzarote at Kempton Park (16/5) 28 days ago, travelled smoothly and showed plenty. Looks up to winning more races and very interesting if he stays this longer trip.
|
Won back-to-back races last season but has made an underwhelming start to this campaign. Ninth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Ascot (8/1) 50 days ago, dropped out before merely closing late. Remains to be seen if he can get back on track in first-time tongue strap/cheekpieces following wind surgery.
|
Winless since March 2024 but went close at Ayr last April. Second of 17 in handicap hurdle at Haydock (13/2) 21 days ago, ran up to pick of his novice form reverting to hurdling though not always fluent. Up 3 lb but unexposed over 3m and can make his presence felt.
|
Low-mileage 9-y-o who landed a brace of handicaps at around 3m in 2023 without looking the finished article. Mixed round of jumping to blame for disappointing chase debut when last seen but has gone well fresh and could feature back hurdling after 16-month break from track.
|
Won at Chepstow in October but hasn't built on that. Eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Windsor 20 days ago, brief headway three out but no further impression. Looks no more than averagely treated at present (Harry Skelton prefers A Pai de Nom) but should be suited by this test of stamina.
|
Useful in France but has lost his way and pulled up in handicap at Ffos Las 30 days ago on first go over fences (wore first-time blinkers following wind op), showing no aptitude for chasing. Returns to hurdles with significant step up in trip and market can guide on second start for top yard.

Forecasts
A Pai De Nom (11/8), Below The Radar (11/2), Kyntara (11/2), Kapal Layar (8/1), Tranquil Sea (10/1), Crebilly (11/1), Alentejo (14/1), Goshhowposh (18/1), Might I (28/1)
A PAI DE NOM is a progressive sort who won on his handicap debut at Cheltenham before following up at Leicester. Third at Kempton in the Lanzarote, he travelled smoothly and looks up to taking this if seeing out the longer trip. Below The Radar ran up to the pick of his novice form when second at Haydock and can make his presence felt back over staying distances, while low-mileage 9-y-o Goshhowposh has won fresh previously.
