I Am The Moon (M)
[P]
Made up into a fairly useful hurdler last term, scoring at Warwick in January and followed that with a series of creditable efforts in defeat. Failed to shine on return/chase debut with cheekpieces enlisted (retained here) at Fakenham but …

Another Folly (G)
FAV
[P]
Without a win sent chasing last term but put that right when making all on his reappearance in 22.6f Stratford handicap in October. Beaten only by a progressive one form the Skelton yard at Warwick next time (since undergone a wind op) and…

Bolsover Bill (G)
[TP]
Better than ever when landing back-to-back handicap chases at Exeter in January 2024 on first 2 starts for current yard. Well below his best in a couple of runs since returning from a lengthy absence in November but this 9-y-o is now lurki…

Move With The Beat (G)
Multiple point winner who shaped better than result when fifth in 3m Exeter handicap chase on yard debut in November. Refused on penultimate start but looked set to score before falling at the last at Taunton (23f, good to firm) recently a…

The Grey Man (G)
Shaped encouragingly after 6 months off when fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (2½m, good to soft) in October. On a fair mark for this chase debut and wouldn't be without each-way hope, granted a clean round of jumping.

Lucky Lugger (G)
[T]
Off the mark in 2m Uttoxeter handicap chase last February but that remains his sole success from 17 starts overall and this season's efforts have left much to be desired.

R T Dunne | M Sheppard | 9 | 74.4 kg |

Jaitroplaclasse (G)
[TP1]
Opened his account at Newton Abbot in September and latest third at Sedgefield (16.4f, good to soft) on Boxing Day was a respectable effort. One to consider back up in trip here with first-time cheekpieces enlisted.

Zoeman (G)
Hadn't cut much ice in 3 starts over hurdles in 2023/24 but made an encouraging chasing debut back from a long absence when third at Southwell. Again third at Huntingdon (16.5f, soft) next time and he needs considering now faced with a sti…

Black Occ (G)
[P1]
Modest maiden hurdler in 2023/24. Pulled up on return from long absence in October and can only be watched now switched to fences in first-time cheekpieces.

Owl Of Athens (G)
Landed a gamble over hurdles this time last year and whilst he's bred to make a chaser, it's been a low-key start for him in this sphere. Others make more appeal.

Night Jet (G)
Placed 3 times on the bounce before deservedly opening his account over fences at Leicester last February. Encouraging start to this season when sixth in a 13-runner handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (15.8f, good to soft) and he's interesting ba…

Stopherandgo (M)

Winless since early 2023 and has offered little in 2 starts since returning from a break in November. Tongue strap applied.
