Blackwater Lilly (M)
[P]
Bangor maiden hurdle winner who ran well with McMenamin taking over in the saddle when third of 7 in C&D handicap last week. That performance is supported by the timefigure and she seems likely to be thereabouts again.

King Sacre (G)
Backed up his previous effort at Wincanton when second of 8 in a C&D handicap (good to soft) last month, albeit no match for the well-treated winner. Needs to pull out a bit more to defy his current mark.

Justlikefire (G)
Built on earlier promise when second in 8-runner handicap at Uttoxeter in November. Held in third when falling 2 out at Newcastle 12 weeks later, though.

William Yeats (G)
[T1]
Easily landed a small-field bumper here in November. Has yet to match that form over hurdles but was left with a lot to do at Wetherby on latest start and rates a likely improver now going handicapping in a first-time tongue strap for new …

Clean Getaway (G)
[P]
Showed the benefit of a recent run as he capitalised on a drop in the weights in 7-runner handicap chase (5/1) at this course (16.4f, good to soft) last week. Reverts to hurdling from same mark and has to be respected.

Scots Poet (G)
[BT]
On a long losing run, but that's reflected in his mark, and he did well under the circumstances when third at Carlisle (17f) on his most recent outing, having raced keener than ideal. Remains one to bear in mind.

Nevershedatear (M)

[H]
Winning pointer who didn't cut much ice in 3 qualifying runs but showed first form under Rules fitted with a first-time hood when second at Bangor (19.6f) recently, albeit flattered by her proximity to the winner. Needs considering from sa…
