7/2
On a steep upward curve in the autumn and picked up where he left off when completing hat-trick at Ludlow in March. Up further 8 lb but hasn't finished improving yet.

4/1
Showed a cracking attitude to land pair of novice hurdles at Doncaster early in 2020. Last season was a write-off but fared better with cheekpieces omitted when third at Worcester (23f) 11 days ago.

4/1
Struck for the first time since 2018 when making all over hurdles at Exeter in February. Good return to the larger obstacles when fourth at Ffos Las and he should be a factor back over timber.

Placed in a point and promise in maiden hurdles for Denis Hickey in Ireland. Could have more to offer now handicapping for new yard.

Bumper winner and fair level over hurdles but below-form fifth of 9 on handicap bow at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good to soft) 46 days ago. More needed to open his account in this sphere.

Progressive form without getting his head in front over hurdles for John O'Shea but yet to make an impact in 3 starts for new connections.

Fairly useful hurdler. Not quite so good over fences, leaving Jeremy Scott after pulling up at Chepstow and was held when falling for new yard over hurdles a fortnight ago.

Forecasts

Animal (11/4), Apache Creek (7/2), The Macon Lugnatic (4/1), Looks Like Power (4/1), Neachells Bridge (15/2), Spider Cullen (12/1), Bay Of Intrigue (16/1), Hey Bud (25/1)

13:45 Ffos Las - 17 May 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

APACHE CREEK is a handicapper on the up and his limit may not have been reached, so he is taken to shrug off an 8 lb rise and complete the hat-trick. Looks Like Power is lower in the weights over timber and is feared most.

  1. APACHE CREEK (IRE)
  2. LOOKS LIKE POWER (IRE)
  3. THE MACON LUGNATIC
