Lightning Flash (G)
Made a successful debut in this sphere at Chepstow (2m) in October. Probably would have won but for a heavy fall at Ludlow following month but that has seemingly blunted his confidence, and he jumped badly again back from 12 weeks off at D…

Northern Air (M)

Maiden hurdle winner for Fergal O'Brien but went backwards from an eye-catching chase bow for Dan Skelton, stopping quickly at Warwick on New Year's Eve. Back on track reverted to hurdling on yard debut here last month and tongue strap now…
