TIMEFORM VIEW Fair performer on the Flat who again ran creditably when fourth in 14-runner Goodwood handicap (9f ) early on last month. Never totally convinced on first spell over hurdles last year, though and he’s a long while without a win. Star RatingHHHII Official BHA Rating 99 BEN FFRENCH DAVIS (3)

TIMEFORM VIEW Arrives very much on the up escaping a penalty for his C&D victory and having little trouble in completing 4-timer at Worcester (20f ) 18 days ago. Much higher mark to contend with now but he’s a player nevertheless. Star RatingHHHHI Official BHA Rating 101 BRADLEY HARRIS (8)

TIMEFORM VIEW Hit the crossbar on first two starts for this yard following eight months off and not far off her best when 9 1/4 lengths fifth of 9 to Appreciate in a C&D handicap 26 days ago. Fact she remains winless after 26 starts is off-putting, however. Star RatingHHHII Official BHA Rating 90

TIMEFORM VIEW Fair winner on the level in France and promise on his qualifying run over hurdles at Plumpton (15.9f) in April. Easy to back, ran poorly on handicap debut at Newton Abbot in May but it does remain early days at least. STEWARDS NOTE: Following its run on 11/5/2022 it was reported that the horse ran too freely.
