For Old Times Sake (G)
[H1]
Placed both completed starts in Irish points and brought along steadily in 3 novice/maiden hurdle runs in recent months. Hood goes on for handicap bow and yard among the best at getting improvement out of such types. Interesting.

Glenmuick (G)
No impact in a bumper and 3 maiden/novice hurdle run and he failed to improve for switch to handicaps (also tongue tied) when well-beaten eighth in 9-runner contest at Market Rasen (20.6f) 18 days ago. Quickly steps back down in trip now b…

Peace In The Park (G)
Runner-up in a point and showed a bit when third in a Stratford bumper on Rules debut in July 2024. Limited impact in trio of novice/maiden hurdle outings last year, midfield on qualifying run at Hereford (16.2f) in December. Switch to han…

Postponed Legacy (G)
FAV
[P]
Improved model following a break, successful in 2m handicaps at Doncaster and Uttoxeter. Hit with a 10 lb rise for the latter of them but confirmed himself still in top form when runner-up at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 5 weeks ago. High on th…

Neeps And Tatties (M)
[H]
Fourth only start in bumpers debut at Hereford in December 2024. However, proven very head strong (including fitted with a hood last 2 starts) in finishing down the field all 3 starts in mares' novice hurdles so far this winter. Will certa…

This Sway (G)
First form over hurdles granted run of the race when fourth of 9 in novice at Southwell (15.8f) but hasn't kicked on from that subsequently, finishing well held ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, soft) 17 days ago, folding whe…

Glancing Back (M)
[H]
Passing Glance mare who is related to winners and there's been definite encouragement to glean from her exploits in maiden/novice hurdles. Entitled to sharpen up for last month's Hereford run and better can be expected now attentions switc…

Steel Soldier (G)
Little impact in Irish points and same story under Rules thus far, including in handicaps last 2 starts. Looks up against it again.

Celine Man (G)
Showed nothing in a couple of runs for Henrietta Knight in 2024 and, following a wind surgery in the interim, he showed nothing from 9 lb out of the weights returning from 22 months off when pulled up in handicap hurdle at this C&D (heavy)…

Ramaah (G)
[B]
Modest 13f Flat scorer who wasn't disgraced in form terms but ultimately didn't mark herself out as one to be interested in when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f) 18 days ago, struggling from 4 out. Others stronger desp…

Cosmic Spirit (G)
[H]
Huge odds and no form in AW events/3 novice hurdle runs. Starts out in handicaps from a basement mark but he needs to take a sizeable step forward to feature from out of the weights.
