Irandando Has (G)

Fairly useful second in listed hurdle at Auteuil on debut for Francois Nicolle in September 2022. Made light of lengthy absence (had breathing operation) when winning maiden at Southwell in December and stepped up on that when runner-up in…

Dartmouth Castle (G)
Fair form when scoring at Sedgefield in May on the second of his 3 bumper outings. Looked in need of the experience on hurdling debut and was much improved with that under his belt when runner-up in a 12-runner novice at Ludlow (15.8f, sof…

Flaming Norman (G)
Showed much more than first time up when fourth in a bumper here in December, worth full credit for the improvement shown given he came from towards the rear in a steadily-run affair. Didn't see things out sent hurdling at C&D 3 weeks ago,…

Prince Of Clova (G)

Looked a hard ride on sole bumper outing and jumped ponderously before pulling up on hurdles bow at Doncaster. Hood goes on.

Return To Florida (G)
Well held on his completed start in points. Looked a staying type when third in a 7-runner Musselburgh bumper in December and little immediate promise on 2 starts over hurdles to date.

The Shanachie (G)
Workforce gelding out of half-sister to World Hurdle winner Cole Harden. Shaped like a stayer when sixth of 9 in bumper at Kelso (16.2f, heavy, 9/2) on NH debut 29 days ago. Kept to around 2m for hurdles debut.

Is bred to stay well but made the frame all 3 outings in bumpers. Went backwards from hurdling debut when fifth of 6 in maiden (11/4) at Sedgefield (19.8f, good) when last seen in September, Back down in trip after 6-month absence in first…
