Found only a well-handicapped rival too strong in 2m handicap at Stratford last month and successful on the level either side of that, drawing clear at Bath 10 days ago. Major player back hurdling.

Placed on the second of 2 starts in Irish bumpers (for Mags Mullins) and has shown promise in his qualifying runs. No immediate impact on handicap debut at Stratford but slight step up in trip can only help his cause.

Maiden but shaped better than the result on more than one occasion last term. Likely he needed the run on last month's return to action and better expected for in-form yard.

Got back on track for his new yard when second in handicap hurdles over C&D and at Cartmel this summer. Backward step returned to this venue 3 weeks ago.

Winner over fences in France and, having had a wind op, opened his hurdles account with a comfortable success at Plumpton in March. Hurdles efforts since a bit disappointing but he did win on the level at Epsom in July and is fit from that code.

Modest form in bumpers/maiden hurdles and having attracted support, he failed to land a meaningful blow when fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (16.3f) a month ago.

In good hands but no promise in his qualifying runs in early 2024. Handicap debut following a break fitted with cheekpieces.

Modest Flat winner (on the AW) who hasn't shown much over hurdles so far. May up his game now handicapping.

Modest maiden hurdler for David Brace and looked in need of the experience sent chasing by his new yard in recent weeks. Has a handy mark to exploit over timber.

Forecasts

Calshot Spit (3/1), Atreides (4/1), Greenways (9/2), Go On Ya Goodthing (7/1), Miss Applejack (7/1), No Mean Feat (10/1), Martin Spirit (11/1), Harry Gulliver (16/1), Pyrrhic Dancer (33/1), Wonderful Delight (33/1), Rubies Or Gold (40/1), Cellar Club (40/1)

Verdict

Having found only a well-backed stable switcher too good at Stratford, CALSHOP SPIT comfirmed he's in excellent order when an easy winner on the Flat at Bath 10 days ago. He's fancied to continue the good work, possibly at the chief expense of Go On Ya Goodthing (returned to timber) and Atreides.
