Hillview (G)
Useful on his day but no show both starts during 2023/24 campaign and recent reappearance display at Doncaster (first run for almost 2 years) reaffirmed the impression that he's no longer the force of old.

Akimos (G)
FAV
Left first 2 efforts behind when winning a Ffos Las maiden hurdle last spring and resumed with a handicap debut near-miss at Sandown (19.8f, good) in November. Disappointing at Leicester since but this lightly-raced 6-y-o is in top hands a…

Below The Radar (G)
Winner of first 3 starts under Rules and, though disappointing initially in handicaps, he went close at Ayr last spring and kicked off this season with a creditable third at Kempton (21f, good to soft). Fell at around the halfway point on …

Knomorediamonds (G)
Came good in 2½m Hexham handicap (heavy) on reappearance in October, forging a long way clear under desperate conditions. Delivered another bold show when a clear second here (19f, good) last time and while his mark has shot up 13 lb since…

Ring O Roses (M)
[H]
Fairly useful hurdler for Henry de Bromhead and reasonable start for present yard when third in a 6-runner Lingfield handicap in December 2024. However, she didn't get far (unseated at the third flight) back from almost a year off at Sando…

Magic Wave (G)
Very lightly-raced 9-y-o who cashed in on a falling mark in 20.8f handicap at Kelso last spring. Has visited the same course for his 2 subsequent outings, most recently finishing a good second on his reappearance at the end of December. So…

High Dancer (G)
FAV
Low-mileage 6-y-o who opened his account in C&D maiden last March and improved further when good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Kelso the following month. Stepped up on his reappearance effort when runner-up at Doncaster last time and h…

Judicial Deference (G)
[T]
Point winner who made a promising start in this sphere on the back of wind surgery (also tongue tied) when second in a Bangor novice in November. Duly went one better with an all-the-way success in a maiden at Musselburgh (19.8f, good to s…

Kilmore Rock (G)
[P]
Four-time winner over hurdles, the latest gained off a 1 lb lower mark at Kelso last spring. He has failed to reproduce that form in 4 subsequent starts, though (2 in this sphere; 2 over fences) and others make more appeal on this occasion.

Conor Rabbitt | S Corbett | 7 | 73 kg |

Jasmin De Cotte (G)
Winner of a maiden chase in May 2024 for Paul Nolan, which was his sole success from 14 starts under Rules in Ireland. However, he did show some promise over hurdles and is worth a second look on debut for the Skelton yard off what is pote…

Wasthatok (G)
[T]
Ready scorer at Newcastle in November before an early unseat over fences at Catterick. Returned to this sphere with an excellent second in a14-runner handicap hurdle at the same course (19.3f, good) 20 days ago and, though now 5 lb higher…

Broderick (G)
Hasn't really kicked on from his Newcastle maiden hurdle success last January, failing to make much of an impact switched to handicaps with cheekpieces enlisted during the spring. Headgear discarded back from an 8-month absence here and he…

Killycarn (G)
Runner-up sole completed start in Irish points and, having hinted at promise in a trio of novice hurdles, he predictably took a step forward when striking on recent handicap debut at Catterick (15.7f, good). Can be expected to raise his ga…

Victoria Milano (M)
[T1]
Dual winner of novice hurdles during 2023/24 campaign for Alastair Ralph but she was generally below par last season. Has undergone a wind op since latest appearance during the spring and starts out for new yard on a workable mark but othe…

Roaring Home (M)
Yet to add to Exeter maiden hurdle success back in October 2024 but positive start to this season when making the frame in handicaps at Chepstow and Warwick. Shaped as though amiss upped to 24.3f at Doncaster last time (since undergone ano…

Fast Work (G)
Modest at best in bumpers but quietly progressive over hurdles and took another step in the right direction when 3¾ lengths third to Brookside La on handicap debut at Wetherby (19.7f, soft). 5 lb pull may not be enough for him to turn the …

Brookside La (G)
Six-figure buy as a store and no surprise that he left his maiden/novice form well behind when making a winning handicap debut at Wetherby (19.7f, soft). Did well to come from behind in what was a slowly-run race that day and, with further…
