A King Of Magic (G)
FAV
[T]
Left first hurdle start well behind (in first-time tongue strap) when staying on strongly from an unlikely position to land 2m maiden at Taunton (heavy). Ran at least as well in defeat under a penalty at Sedgefield and remains with potenti…

King Jon Oliver (G)
Turned over an odds-on Willie Mullins rival to make a winning start for Olly Murphy at Fakenham and got back on track when fourth in 23f handicap at Uttoxeter last month. Still unexposed for yard which has an excellent record at this track…

Kingston Narcissus (G)

Returned to winning ways (tongue tied) at Sedgefield on Boxing Day but below form both outings subsequently, including in a first-time visor on latest start.

Monaco Rules (G)
Made a winning start over hurdles for Francois Nicolle in October 2024. Yet to match that for his current yard but he stepped up on his reappearance when runner-up in 2½m Sedgefield handicap in November. Remains low mileage.

Bois Guillbert (G)
Lost his way over fences and again ran poorly reverting to hurdling at Musselburgh (2½m, good to soft) in February. Plenty to prove.

Joeybottles (G)
[T]
Put his tame finishes behind him following a breathing operation when winning 10-runner handicap at Bangor (2½m, good) last month, readily. More to come and a 10 lb higher mark may not be enough to prevent the follow up.

La Vish (G)
Improved to get off the mark in 3-runner novice hurdle (20/1) at Warwick (21f, good to soft) 28 days ago, readily. That form isn't the easiest to pin down and further progress possible now handicapping.

Bel Ombre (G)

Fair in bumpers and matched that level sent handicapping when landing a gamble in 13-runner event at Taunton (19f, soft) in January, pushed out. Open to further improvement.

Platin Moon (G)
Doubled his tally in hard-fought fashion in 7-runner handicap hurdle at Ayr (2m, soft) in March, all out. Step back up in trip not guaranteed to suit though given his free-going tendencies.

Largy Meadow (G)

Headstrong sort who improved a chunk on his second handicap start when runner-up in 12-runner event at Newcastle (2½m, good) 12 days ago. Task is to now back that up in a stronger race here.
