Classic King (G)
Dual 19f hurdles/chase winner last term who signed off with a good second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, good to soft). Underwent a wind op prior to an encouraging reappearance kept to hurdles at Cheltenham and shapes as though …

Thunder Rock (G)
Very smart chaser at best but not at the same level in handful of outings over hurdles last season. Resumes from a 7-month absence on a potentially very handy mark, but it's not hard to have reservations all the same.

Punctuation (G)
[T]
Five-time hurdles winner for Fergal O'Brien and ended time with that yard with victory in 2m Flat handicap at Goodwood in May 2024. Good third over 21f at Kempton on the second of his 3 starts for new yard last term, but one or two of thes…

Samuel Spade (G)
Five-time winner over hurdles, including a career best at Ascot (23.5f, good) in February and backed that up with a solid fifth in a competitive handicap at Uttoxeter next time. However, he was tailed off on his reappearance over C&D earli…

Diamond Ri (G)
Easy winner only start in bumpers and confirmed hurdles debut promise when taking a Warwick maiden (19f, soft) in January 2024. Solid second in 20.2f Cheltenham novice in April of that year and, though absent since, he's unexposed and is o…

J J Moon (G)
Signed off last term by opening his account in an Exeter maiden and, having undergone a wind op in the interim, he raised his game when making a winning handicap debut on return at Newton Abbot (21.6f, soft). Further progress likely now fa…

Keable (G)
Did the job in good style when getting off the mark in a 21.5f Exeter handicap on New Year's Day. Followed up over this C&D 2 weeks later, but struggled on final run of last season and it could be that he's a shade too high in the weights …

I'm A Lumberjack (G)

Fairly useful bumper performer who confirmed hurdling debut promise when running out a tidy winner of 11-runner maiden at Warwick (21f, soft) last December. Added to that when landing the odds in a Bangor novice on final start of last seas…

Permis De Tuer (G)
Fairly useful form when winning 11-runner listed juvenile hurdles on debut for Noel George & Amanda Zetterholm at Auteuil in September 2023. Completely unexposed, but subsequent absence has to be a major concern ahead of this handicap/stab…

Blue Carpet (G)
Fairly useful bumper winner who built on hurdling debut promise when easily landing the odds in 3-runner novice at Wetherby (19.7f, good). Handed a reasonable mark for this handicap bow and he's in good hands to progress.

Kruger Park (G)

Progressive switched to handicaps during second-half of 2023/24 season and made the frame twice off higher marks than this last term. However, ended that campaign on a low-key note and reappearance effort at Lingfield wasn't particularly e…
