Le Yacht (G)
FAV
Stepped forward from reappearance fifth when making a successful handicap debut at Doncaster (16.5f, soft) in November. Not seen to best effect (raced wide) when beaten favourite at Haydock (19f) just before Christmas. Might be worth anoth…

Homme D'Un Soir (G)
[TV]
Won 3 times (1 hurdle, 2 chase) last season. Excellent second over fences at Huntingdon on return and better than subsequent well-held fourth at Ludlow (chase again). Has a lower mark back hurdling.

Cornish Storm (G)

Both hurdle wins at Taunton, latterly a 19f handicap at the end of December. Likely still on a competitive mark but he is a bit hit and miss.

Ufouria (M)

Bumper winner in Ireland. Fourth on her first 3 completed starts over hurdles but made a slightly disappointing start to her handicap career when seventh of 9 at Ludlow 23 days ago. Bounce back needed.

Service Minimum (M)
Novice winner over 2m and 2½m last summer. Respectable fourth of 15 on 2½m Worcester handicap debut in September but below that level twice since. Needs to resume her progression.

Supreme Yeats (G)
[T]
Successful over 23f at Uttoxeter last May. Has come up short off higher marks since but he had an excuse (raced freely and did too much too soon in first-time blinkers) at Kempton when last seen in November. The blinkers are discarded back…
