Won a Fakenham hunter on Rules debut in May 2022 and ran well when runner-up in a stronger race at Stratford the following summer. Prolific in points after but shaped terribly on belated Rules return last month.

Winning hurdler who matched that form over fences when runner-up at Taunton in December. However, has mostly been let down by his jumping in this sphere since, his best recent effort coming in a small field at Doncaster.

Dual point winner who shaped quite well on his last 2 starts over hurdles. However, has made an inauspicious start over fences despite being well backed both starts.

Benefited from step up in trip when making second chase start a successful one at Southwell (3m) in November off 3 lb higher. However, yet to build on that and shaped as if amiss 19 days ago.

Is 0-16 over hurdles but went close to making a winning start in this sphere over C&D 6 weeks ago. That form is working out well and he's open to progress as a chaser.

Got on top close home with first-time headgear enlisted on third chase start at Sedgefield in December and resumed winning ways at Huntingdon in May. However, efforts in between those wins were poor so not an obvious type to follow up.

6/1
Maiden hurdler but this point winner was greatly improved on his third run over fences when scoring over C&D under this rider in May. Went off too hard here following month and has since had breathing operation. Worth another chance fitted with a tongue strap and reunited with Sheehan.

Back-to-back wins at Fontwell and Newton Abbot under this rider in October. Below par since, though shaped well up with the pace for much of the way at Cartmel on return 9 weeks ago.

Forecasts

Jongleur D'etoiles (3/1), Izzy's Grey (9/2), Kenzo Des Bruyeres (11/2), Jo Arengeot Bey Aa (6/1), Queens Wish (10/1), Jullou De Grissay (11/1), Slaney Opera (12/1), Of Corse I Can (14/1), Uncle Al (16/1), Betty's Tiara (16/1), Jack's A Legend (25/1), Normofthenorth (33/1), Miami Jim (33/1), Collingham (66/1)

Verdict

IZZY'S GREY stopped the slide sent chasing when second over C&D 6 weeks ago and might well have crowned it with a first ever win had his jumping not turned wayward once in front. Open to progress over fences, he's taken to go one better at the main expense of Jo Arengeot Bey Aa and Of Corse I Can.

  1. Izzy's Grey9/2
  2. Jo Arengeot Bey Aa6/1
  3. Of Corse I Can14/1
