16/5
Made a winning return at Kelso last season and took a step back in the right direction when third at this C&D on his first start of the current campaign. Well below par in 3 subsequent starts but he has dipped to an attractive mark and will be a threat if responding well to the new headgear.

7/4
Thurles maiden hurdle winner for Jonathan Fogarty in March 2022. Too headstrong for his own good in 3 starts over fences for new connections since returning from a 21-month absence but the handicapper is showing mercy and perhaps the addition of a hood will give him a lift.

Would be thrown in off this mark if back to anything like his best but he's just 1-18 over fences. Conversely, his latest second to an in-form rival at Newcastle (16.3f, soft) was a decent effort and sports a first-time visor here in place of the usual cheekpieces.

Runner-up in a point before making a winning hurdles bow for new yard in maiden at Sedgefield in November. Rather disappointing both starts since, though, and needs to raise his game now switched to fences.

14:33 Ayr - 9 March 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Headgear could be the key to this race, with DREAMS OF HOME, Salamanca Bay and Cornerstone Lad all sporting first-time aids. The first-named is now 18 lb below his last winning mark and he shades preference in the hope that the blinkers will have the desired effect.
