Hey Flint (M)
Yet to go off shorter than triple-figure odds over hurdles and wasn't given the hardest of times at Ludlow on latest. Bred to stay well and she appeals as one who'll improve now handicapping over further.

By The Grace (M)
FAV
Seen only twice since 2024 and shaped with some encouragement after an 11-month absence when fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, soft) 33 days ago. Entitled to come on for that and is respected.

L'empire Vert (G)
[T]
Improved when beating a weak field to win a novice handicap chase at Ludlow in November but has been badly let down by his jumping over fences since and broke a blood vessel last time. Tricky to fancy back hurdling.

Sean Houlihan | Sheila Lewis | 6 | 73 kg |

Neeps And Tatties (M)
[H]
Showed more than previously over hurdles when fourth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, heavy) 16 days ago but still looks a headstrong type, so longer trip wouldn't promise to suit.

Finn Lambert | R T Phillips | 7 | 71.2 kg |

Glenmuick (G)
Little show in bumpers or over hurdles so far, so this others make more appeal for all step back up in trip should suit.

Lily Pinchin | C E Longsdon | 5 | 71.2 kg |

Conniemak (M)
FAV
Produced her most solid piece of form when third of 13 in a mares handicap hurdle over C&D in December but failed to back that up at Warwick the following month.

Churchman (G)
[P]
Maiden who produced his best effort of the season when third at Warwick in January and wasn't disgraced when fifth at Chepstow (19.4f, soft, 7/2) 22 days ago. Frame claims.

Jack Hogan | A Ralph | 8 | 67.1 kg |

Nobody Told Me (G)
[V]
Still a maiden in this sphere but shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, soft) 14 days ago, weakening only after 2 out.

Tabitha Worsley | T Faulkner | 6 | 66.2 kg |

Getaway Sam (G)
No show over hurdles and is very hard to fancy after returning amiss last time.

Prairie Queen (M)
[TP1]
In the frame 3 times in the autumn but well held after a 12-week break at Huntingdon last time. Cheekpieces now go on.

Joker Jack (G)

Poor maiden hurdler fared no better sent chasing at Taunton last month. Can't be fancied quickly reverted to hurdling.
