Exeter Staying Handicap Hurdle

Completed a 4-timer in 21f Warwick handicap hurdle after 4 months off. Will go on improving, and latest rise again looks generous. Big shout up in trip.

Won at Newton Abbot last season and should be sharper for his recent Worcester return following 11 weeks off/another wind op. Dropped 3 lb which will only help his cause. Not ruled out.

Hurdles winner for Dan Skelton in 2019 but lost his way, not seeing his races out. New yard in form but he might need it.

Back to winning ways at Ffos Las over 20f in June and better since when second at Ludlow (extended 21f) in blinkers last time, staying on all too late. More needed up in trip.

Returned to winning ways in 25f Huntingdon handicap hurdle a fortnight ago. This is tougher up 4 lb but everything from red-hot yard has to be taken seriously at present.

Perked up by a change of headgear when beaten only by one on opposite side of the track at Worcester (23f) in August but ran out at Sedgefield next time, confirming that she's not to be trusted.
