Snapius (G)
[V]
Capitalised on falling mark with a comfortable success at Huntingdon in March, before running respectably when 8½ lengths fourth of 9 to Midnight View at Warwick (19f) last time. Could be in the mix with yard amongst the winners.

Midnight View (G)

Showed improved form when opening account in 19f handicap at Warwick 17 days ago, benefiting from the longer distance. Major player with more still to offer upped further in trip.

Jafimgoso (G)
Fairly useful bumper winner but went the wrong way over hurdles in 2024/25. After 13-month absence, finished well held in 2m handicap at Huntingdon in March. This run should reveal more for his leading yard.

Izzy's Grey (G)
[T]
Placed twice over 23f at Bangor in spring 2025. Pulled up on first 4 starts in 2025/26, but there were better signs when sixth of 10 in novice handicap at Chepstow (19f) in March. Mark has eased further if able to build on latest run.

Steady The Ship (G)
Dual winning chaser but yet to score over hurdles. Pulled up over fences on first 3 starts for current yard and fared little better reverted to hurdling when tailed off at Wetherby (3m) 6 weeks ago.

Man Of Riddles (G)
Fairly useful staying handicapper on Flat earlier in his career. However, he struggled for form this winter and given another try over hurdles he's finished well held at Huntingdon last 2 starts. Makes handicap debut in this sphere.

Jour D'orage (G)
[P]
Shaped with a bit more encouragement than previously for this yard when seventh of 12 in novice handicap at Wincanton in March. Failed to build on that effort when failing to beat a rival at Ffos Las 19 days ago.

Ramaah (G)
[B]
Remains a maiden over hurdles but from well out of the weights he ran one of better races when third of 7 in novice handicap at Hereford (2m) in March. However, followed that with a poor effort over the same C&D last month.
