Unibet Pony Racing Authority Graduates Handicap Hurdle (Conditionals/Amateurs)

Dual bumper winner who made amends for a costly late error on hurdles debut when readily landing a Doncaster maiden in February. Similar form in defeat under a penalty at Bangor behind promising one before resuming winning ways back at Doncaster. This mark looks fair and has to be of interest.

In good form last summer, winning at Uttoxeter. Quickly returned to form when second at Warwick (19f) on final outing in October but remains vulnerable to anything remotely progressive.

Returned an improved model this season, resuming winning ways in cosy fashion in 2m handicap at Sandown in December, ridden more patiently than usual. Beat all bar the one who'd had an easy lead at Huntingdon prior to finishing a good third at Newbury. Should go well again.

Stood out on form and made the most of a good opportunity in emphatic fashion in 6-runner novice Ludlow (2m, 4/7) last April. Off since but capable fresh and must enter the reckoning.

In top form at Worcester last summer, winning twice and runner-up 3 times. Out of the handicap when well held in Welsh Champion Hurdle at Chepstow when last seen in October and back off his correct mark now.

Back in the groove when scoring in decisive fashion over fences at Ffos Las last May. Solid second over hurdles at Aintree later that month but has been pulled up both chase starts since and others more persuasive on this return to hurdling.

French recruit who got off the mark at the third time of asking for Paul Nicholls in a novice at Taunton (19f) in February and backed it up with a solid third under a penalty in 2m Newbury juvenile. Steps into handicap company now but needs more.
