Glenmuick (G)

No impact in a bumper and 3 hurdles but rates a potential improver now handicapping over a longer trip. Also tongue tied first time.

Wind Your Neck In (G)
FAV
[T]
Remains a maiden over hurdles but recent 2m efforts respectable, including here. Stays 2m on Flat so this longer trip may suit. Should go well.

We Got Your Back (G)
[H]
Third handicap chase success when scoring over 2m at Hexham in October. Good second there since but run of good form came to a halt when well-held fourth at Southwell in December. Now back hurdling for first time in 18 months.

Cooler Than Me (G)
[P1]
Lightly raced sort who has made no impact in maiden/novice hurdles since returning from a long absence for new trainer Fergal O'Brien but he was runner-up in a bumper in March 2023. One to note in the betting now handicapping in first-time…
