Brewin'upastorm (G)
[T]
Smart and likeable veteran who proved as good as ever when landing a Fairyhouse Grade 2 in spring of 2024. However, seen in action only twice since, off 20 months prior to finishing 12½ lengths fifth of 9 to Bear Market in a C&D handicap 3…

Supremely West (G)
Useful for Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole, winning 3m Haydock handicap in the mud last December. Encouraging reappearance third for Dan Skelton at Cheltenham in October but not in the same form either outing since. Passed over at presen…

Indeevar Bleu (G)
Low-mileage 7-y-o who was quickly back on track and looked potentially useful when resuming winning ways on handicap debut at Ffos Las (15.8f) in April. Solid reappearance second at Newbury (16.3f) 4 weeks ago and the way he shaped suggest…

Serious Operator (G)
[T]
Gradually worked his way back to form this autumn and he duly capitalised on a sliding mark in 6-runner handicap hurdle at Newcastle (20.3f) in November, looking about as good as ever in the process. 4 lb rise should see him competitive ag…

Dedicated Hero (G)
Progressed over hurdles last season, winning Grade 2 Rossington Main at Haydock. Given a considerate return when finishing midfield at Carlisle (20f) and drop back to 2m didn't look in his favour when seventh in last month's Greatwood Hurd…

Florida Dreams (G)
[P]
Is a while without a win but started this campaign in good form, just touched off on chase debut at Hexham (20f) in October. Similar story returned to hurdles at Carlisle (20f) next time and shaped as if still in good order when third at H…

Rubber Ball (G)
Irish point winner who showed fairly useful form last term, landing brace of maiden/novice hurdles. Overfaced in Grade 1 here final outing but he did at least fare better than on reappearance when 11 lengths fourth of 9 to Bear Market over…

Bear Market (G)

[T]
Unbeaten in bumpers and going the right way over hurdles fitted with a tongue tie, bagging 17f novice here on final start for Nicky Henderson in May. Improved further to land handicaps at Southwell/over C&D in recent months and this likeab…
