11/10

Ended last term on the up over hurdles, including a 20.5f win here. Promising second in 21.5f Haydock handicap on chase debut/reappearance. Looks sure to progress and win races over fences.

Form: 32114-2

16/5

Posted career best when making a winning return/chasing bow at Hexham (2½m) in October. Disappointed at Kelso last time but he remains on a fair mark and could well bounce back.

Form: 3262-16

Hashtag Boum²³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: B S Hughes| T: Ruth Jefferson| OR: 120| D

7/2

Fairly useful winning hurdler who struck at the first time of asking over fences in 21f Sedgefield handicap at the beginning of October. Bumped into a smart prospect when second at Uttoxeter since. Likely more to come and respected.

Form: 2148-12

28/1

Hurdle winner. Also runner-up 3 times over fences at the end of 2022 but off since pulling up twice at Carlisle in early 2023. Returns in quite a warm race and can only watch.

Ozzy Cosmo^t²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: Bruce Lynn| T: N W Alexander| OR: 110| C

16/1

Irish point recruit who landed a 2m course novice hurdle on Rules debut last December but fell both subsequent hurdle starts last season and made an inauspicious start to his chase career when last of 6 on Kelso reappearance. Should do better at some point but can only watch this time.

Form: 441FF-6

Step Above^t³³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: P W Wadge| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 108| CD

17/2

Shaped well when third on his 2½m Perth reappearance in September but pulled up at Newcastle 2 months later.

There was plenty to like about PRESIDENT SCOTTIE's chase debut second at Haydock last month and he's narrowly preferred to Ruth Jefferson's Hashtag Boum in quite an interesting novice handicap.
