Three-time point winner who completed at the third time of asking in hunters when 8 lengths second over 27.5f at Stratford in May. His opening mark isn't obviously generous but he brings unexposed potential.
|
Runner-up over C&D in April. Filled the same position in a hurdle here last month before going one better at Newton Abbot (hurdle) 5 days later. 3 lb lower back over fences so his claims are obvious.
|
Won this race under Brian Hughes 2 years ago. In good form in spring 2024 (including a win at Fakenham) but he's been absent for 17 months. Fitted with a first-time tongue tie on return. Player if ready to roll.
|
Went close to snapping his losing run when second in 3¼m handicap chase at Uttoxeter in July but 3 lesser efforts have followed.
|
Arrives well below par, tried in cheekpieces when pulled up at Perth in August. Has something to prove at present.

Hostile Hotelier (4/6), Red Delta (7/2), Ballylinch (15/2), Lights Are Green (11/1), Zoffalee (12/1)
HOSTILE HOTELIER races off 3 lb lower than when scoring over hurdles at Newton Abbot last month and holds obvious claims at a track he runs well. 2023 winner of this Ballylinch hasn't been seen for 18 months but might still be the one to give Jennie Candlish's charge most to do.
- Ballylinch15/2
- Red Delta7/2
