Debut 13f Flat winner in France in October. Hasn't achieved a great deal despite finishing third both hurdles starts but he's in top hands and is capable of a bigger performance.

Made some appeal on pedigree and shaped like the stayer he's bred to be when fifth of 8 in maiden hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f) on debut in October. Should benefit from that first experience.

Second in a Tramore bumper and given a considerate return for new yard when fourth at Hereford in November. Promising start over hurdles when second of 4 at Newbury in February and he's the one to beat.

Fairly useful performer at best on Flat (stays 1¼m). Showed a bit when sixth of 10 on his recent Wincanton hurdle debut but he will need to improve on that form to play a prominent role here.

Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful hurdlers Silver Sheen (2½m-25f winner) and Miah Grace (2m/17f winner). Dam bumper/2m-19f hurdle winner (stayed 3m), half-sister to useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser (stayed 3m) Quickbeam. Sound start to her career when third of 5 in October. More to come.

Forecasts

Up For Appeal (11/10), Angel's Dream (9/4), Artistic Endeavour (13/2), Definite (15/2), Wonderweasle (8/1), Cassowary (80/1), Elmejor (100/1), Eile Tara (125/1), Moorgate (125/1)

13:45 Plumpton - 14 May 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Not a strong maiden hurdle so it looks a good chance for UP FOR APPEAL to go one place better having made a promising start to his hurdles career at Newbury. Wonderweasle is the obvious threat, though Angel's Dream is capable of better.
