George & Dragon Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Enterprisingly ridden when winning on reappearance for the second successive season at Southwell in early June before having his limitations exposed back up 9 lb at Newton Abbot. Ran in void race at Uttoxeter last month. Has the blinkers added but may face competition for the lead this time.

Capitalised on big drop in grade when winning selling hurdle at Hexham in May for Paul Nicholls. Yet to fire in 2 starts for new yard (well backed on stable debut), though still in clear lead when race voided at Uttoxeter last month. Still to prove she's as good in this sphere as over hurdles.

Versatile mare who's progressing at a rate of knots, completing a 7-timer in just over 3 weeks when landing 8-runner handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (17f, good to firm) by 3 lengths from Hello Sweety in June, hard held. Holds outstanding claims back chasing after a 10-week break.

Fairly useful winner over both hurdles and fences for Dan Skelton. Yet to fully fire for this yard but looked back in better heart before falling last when in share of second over C&D when last seen in May. Seemingly has questions to answer now from a jumping perspective.
