Bounced back to his best when winning a 6-runner C&D handicap last summer but hasn't kicked on as expected from that, losing his place when falling out 17 days ago. Lines up 3 lb below last winning mark if return to this track/trip has a positive effect.
|
Lightly-raced 6-y-o who has been knocking on the door over hurdles, runner-up in pair of handicaps at Newcastle before a creditable third in a Sedgefield maiden 29 days ago. Appeals as the type to make his mark over fences, so he's well worth a look for in-form yard.
|
Failed to get his head in front on Flat/over hurdles for Richard Hughes/Paul Nicholls but belatedly off the mark in 5-runner handicap chase at Sedgefield (19.3f) for present yard 4 weeks ago, holding on gamely. Respected with a repeat
|
Largely consistent sort who doubled his chase tally in 4-runner C&D handicap in November. Absent since finishing a solid third at Musselburgh (15.8f) later that month and he's certainly not out of things back from a break.
|
Irish point winner at sixth attempt (finished alone). Modest maiden hurdler after 9 attempts and, well backed, he got no further than the fourth making his chase debut over C&D 26 days ago. This ought to reveal more.
|
Exploits distinctly mixed over hurdles in recent months but eased in weights as a result and produced an encouraging effort on first try in this sphere when third in 9-runner C&D handicap 26 days ago. Worth a second look from this mark.

WILLIE SHAKE HANDS has been knocking on the door over hurdles in recent months and, appealing as the type who could do even better over larger obstacles, he gets the narrow vote with his yard continuing in good form. Fellow chase debutant From The Clouds is also worth a look on return for Lucinda Russell. Scots Poet and Beny Nahar Road are others to consider.
