Fair hurdler who posted a good second at Kelso (2m) before hampered and unseated rider 3 out in 17f Sedgefield maiden later in December. This reliable sort can't be ruled out after a break.
|
Winning pointer who has shown fair form on all 3 outings over hurdles, including in a first-time tongue strap when third at Doncaster on latest outing. Has since undergone a breathing operation and holds very good form claims.
|
Twice-raced Irish maiden who failed to progress from debut effort when fourth of 9 in maiden hurdle here 66 days ago. Needs to take a step forward down in trip.
|
Fair bumper performer. Hasn't been the most fluent jumper but ran his best race when pushing an odds-on winner all the way in a C&D novice 53 days ago.
|
Debut bumper second at Huntingdon (for Tom Weston) last March and shaped well after nearly 12 months off when filling same position in bumper here in February. Interesting hurdling debutant for leading yard.
|
Made mistakes when a well-held fourth of 7 in novice hurdle at Ludlow (2m) on his hurdles bow 50 days ago. Lots more is required.
|
Has offered little in a pair of bumpers and maiden hurdles, pulled up at Hexham 23 days ago.
|
Fair Flat winner who was in good form without scoring over hurdles until ninth in 17f Carlisle handicap 26 days ago. The sort to bounce back though.

Forecasts
Dropematthestation (5/2), Linalene (10/3), Lirion (10/3), Green Angel (7/2), Bohemond Antioch (15/2), Penn Avenue (16/1), Magna Patch (80/1), Culzean (200/1)
Olly Murphy's LIRION has shaped well in finishing runner-up on both starts in bumpers, most recently here, and is taken to make a winning start over hurdles at the chief expense of Dropematthestation who has had a breathing operation since his good Doncaster third. Both Bohemond Antioch and Penn Avenue also have the form to play a part.
- Lirion10/3
