Useful hurdler/chaser in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien in 2020/21. In touch when unseated rider 3 out in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (16f, soft) in March and he's entitled to come forward from last month's reappearance run at Chepstow. Could be worth chancing up in trip.

Registered a fourth career success at Doncaster (24.4f) in February and not disgraced on 2 of her 3 starts thereafter last term. Unseated rider at start on return at Chepstow 9 days ago but she's not out of things judged on pick of last season's form.

Dual 2m hurdles winner early in 2023 but pulled up at Newbury final start and he finished well held once more on return/following wind op at Plumpton (15.9f) last month. This should reveal more upped significantly in trip.

Improved for step up to staying trips last term, winning handicaps at Plumpton/Newton Abbot and unlucky not to complete the hat-trick when runner-up at first-named venue on final outing. Remains one to be interested in back from 6 months off.

Fairly useful hurdler who matched that level without getting his head in front over fences during second half of last season. Switched yards ahead of return and worth noting he's now operating 2 lb below last winning mark.

Fairly useful hurdler who didn't convince in trio of starts over fences earlier this year and he was again some way below his best over hurdles when fourth of 5 in handicap at Uttoxeter (23.3f) 32 days ago. Ease back down in trip may help here.

Positive profile over hurdles, gaining third career success in 4-runner mares' handicap at Uttoxeter (20f, heavy) in July. Not in same form at Worcester in September but she returns from 2 months off with her yard amongst the winners.

Well beaten in bumpers but not without promise in novice/maiden hurdles and likely he'll come on for last month's reappearance run at Bangor/following a wind op. Tongue tie refitted for handicap debut and worth monitoring closely in the betting for clues.

Fairly useful winning hurdler in Ireland for Peter Fahey but he has failed to fire in 4 outings for his yard, beaten quickly when pulled up at Worcester (20f) in August. Hard to warm to back from 72 days off.

Emphatically doubled her tally over C&D in April and, back from 5 months off, produced a solid comeback effort when second in 4-runner handicap here 4 weeks ago. Remains lightly raced and stable landed this race 12 months ago. Worthy of respect.

Won at fourth time of asking over hurdles in 4-runner Fakenham maiden in June but hasn't replicated that in pair of Worcester handicaps subsequently. Steps up in trip on the back of a break now.

3-time winner (twice over C&D) for Henry Daly during 2022. Below best first 3 starts this term but made it first time lucky having been picked up cheaply by new yard at Hereford (19.6f) 23 days ago, keeping on well. This rates tougher, however.

12:15 Ludlow - 9 November 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

A competitive opener and with that in mind it may pay to take a chance on top weight FRONT VIEW. His recent record is patchy but he ought to strip fitter for last month's reappearance run at Chepstow and he's lurking on a very dangerous mark judged on the pick of his form in Ireland. Ramo was progressing well when last seen and he's feared, along with Regal Renaissance and Call Me Tara.
