Racing TV Handicap Hurdle

Finished last season on the up with success at Fontwell. Shaped as if another win may not be far away when chasing home a thriving sort at Doncaster (3m, soft) in January but found to have bled when well beaten at Warwick last month. The stable won this race last year.

Made a successful start for Neil King in 2½m course maiden hurdle in October. 3m Doncaster second in December shows he can be competitive in handicaps. Has run poorly twice since but it's possible a recent breathing operation and a return to Fakenham could spark a revival.

Dual hurdle winner for Olly Murphy and struck at the fourth time of asking for Andy Irvine in 23f Lingfield handicap in November. Claims if returning from a break in similar form.

Placed in a bumper and maiden hurdles but the form is only modest. Left Willie Mullins and off 4 months, well below par when remote third of 4 at Ascot (19f) 15 days ago. Steps up in trip now handicapping for the first time.

Now 0-15 over hurdles but did shape with promise on last month's first outing for new yard after a year off at Uttoxeter, racing with plenty of zest in front and briefly clear before tying up on the run-in. This might be her day.

Stoutly-bred gelding who has yet to seriously threaten in a handicap and might find this test a little on the sharp side.

Dual winner for Olly Murphy and back to form out of blue for new yard in refitted cheekpieces (retained) when springing a 28/1 surprise in 3m Southwell handicap last month. Claims if the headgear continues to do the trick.

25/1 winner of 25f Plumpton handicap on reappearance in September but has been largely below par since, including back at Plumpton on his recent return from a break.
