Last Kingdom (G)
Won at Listowel in September and posted another good effort when in frame at Fairyhouse when next seen 2 months later. Unable to sustain effort from poor position at Leopardstown over Christmas. Market may prove best guide having since lef…

Fingle Bridge (G)

Went 3-3 over hurdles last season, including a listed novice. Best of the rest behind Lulamba on Exeter chase debut/reappearance and came home alone at Uttoxeter next time. Held back by jumping when beaten at Ayr since but remains with pot…

Phantomofthepoints (G)
[PT]
Useful hurdler who ran a cracker when again finishing third in valuable stayers' handicap here on reappearance/first start since wind surgery. Fell on chase debut next time (Fingle Bridge was sole rival) and not quite at best back hurdling…

Luttrell Lad (G)
[TV]
Seen to advantage when resuming winning ways at Exeter (18.5f, soft) in November but seemed caught out by a rise in the weights when fourth of 10 against fellow veterans at Sandown (19.8f, good to soft) 35 days ago. Place claims from same …

Junker D'allier (G)
[T]
Multiple novice hurdle winner last term and no great surprise that he returns to this sphere having disappointed in a handicap chase on third try over fences at Ayr last month. This will be his first run in a handicap over hurdles and he h…

Believitanducan (G)
Gained third win of his short hurdling career at Plumpton (20.5f, soft) in December. Failed to fire up in grade when sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, good) 43 days ago but remains one to view positively overall.

Champagne Twist (G)
[P1]
Won the EBF Final at Sandown in March 2024 but hasn't progressed as might have been expected since. Didn't look a natural sent chasing this autumn and again jumped sketchily back hurdling at Newbury in December. Cheekpieces now go on.

Prince Zaltar (G)
Ex-Irish gelding made winning start for Dan Skelton at Newton Abbot handicap hurdle in September and held form well next 3 starts, better than ever back over fences when third at Doncaster in December. Perhaps unsuited by conditions last t…
