9/2

Made it 2 wins from first 3 starts this season when scoring at Haydock (19.9f) in December and continued in good form when second of 5 at Doncaster (16.4f, soft) 23 days ago, beaten only by an unexposed type. Respected back down in grade.

Here Comes Georgie^t⁵⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-13| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 128| C| D

13/2

Fairly useful hurdler/chaser for Patrick Neville and good effort on second start for current yard when going close in handicap chase at Doncaster (19.1f, good to soft) in November. Below form at Ascot since but he's capable if on a going day.

Form: 3-13626

Hardy Du Seuil^p³⁰

4/1

Retuned to winning ways in handicap hurdle at Windsor in November and, back over fences, matched that form when fourth of 10 at Haydock (16.3f, good to soft) a month ago. Can make his presence felt with yard continuing to go well.

Form: 03-3104

13/2

Landed a bumper/first 3 starts in novice hurdles and lost little caste in defeat in pair of handicaps to end 2021/22. After 21-month absence, made a winning start over fences in 3-runner handicap at Ayr (16.5f, soft) in December 2023, but he's been off again since.

Karafon^t²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: J J Slevin| T: S R B Crawford| OR: 125

13/2

Fairly useful hurdler for Willie Mullins who shaped well on second start over fences when runner-up in handicap at Ayr (20.5f, soft) in January. Possibly found race coming too soon when well held at Down Royal 18 days later, so he could bounce back.

Form: F7792-6

Hello Judge^t²⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-3| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Mrs A Hamilton| OR: 118| C

9/2

Made a winning reappearance at this course (20f) in October, his fifth success here, and followed up at Hexham. However, lesser efforts the last twice, fifth of 9 at Wetherby (19.4f, heavy, 20/1) 25 days ago. Needs to get back on track returned to this venue.

Form: 12-1185

Willie Shake Hands^t³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 109| D

9/2

Off the mark on chasing debut at Hexham in May and ran well on return from 5 months off when third of 6 at Doncaster (16.4f, good to soft) in December. However, found it tougher in this grade at Haydock last time and has largely been kept away from testing ground.

NETYWELL took a step back in the right direction when fourth at Ayr 18 days ago and, with conditions looking set to be in his favour, he could be ready to take advantage of his reduced mark. Hardy du Seuil ran well back over fences behind a trio of last-time-out winners at Haydock on his latest outing and isn't taken lightly, with Grain d'Oudairies also in the mix.
