Tomorrow, HurdleClass 42m

KING OF RECORDS was much improved from his hurdling debut effort when third at Ludlow in February and backed that up when second at Chepstow next time, so he is taken to open his account in this sphere with more still to offer on his reappearance. Ufouria showed promise over hurdles in Ireland and could be the main danger, ahead of Minella Jury.

    Verdict
    Posted a fairly useful effort when bagging Wexford bumper in October on final run for John Nallen, form boosted by the second winning over hurdles time. Since changed hands for £80,000 and he's an interesting hurdling debutant for his new yard. Engaged 12.18 Uttoxeter Friday.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful winner on Flat in France in 2023, then missed following year. Left stable/hurdling debut form behind when third in a Ludlow novice in February, before running to a similar level when second in maiden at Chepstow in April. Remains capable of better on return.

    Verdict
    Bumper winner at the fourth attempt and promise on both completed starts over hurdles, seeming stretched by the longer trip when well-beaten fourth of 10 in maiden at Wexford (20.7f) in April. Off since but she's respected back down in distance with tongue strap added.

    Verdict
    Promise sole outing in bumpers but only modest form when mid-field in 2 starts over hurdles this season, fifth of 10 in mares' novice at Warwick (19f) on latest run a month ago. Capable of better, though she might be more one for handicaps after another run.

    Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser Drop Out Joe (2½m-3¼m winner). Dam, 2¼m chase winner in France, half-sister to smart chaser up to 3m La Landiere. Has a fair standard to aim at on debut.

    Fair form in bumpers, placed twice from 4 starts, but well held tried on the Flat in April. After 7 months off (had wind op), some encouragement when staying-on fourth of 8 in novice at Plumpton on hurdles bow 19 days ago. More needed in this contest.

    Down the field in varied events on Flat, tried in cheekpieces when well held on handicap debut at Chepstow final outing in May last year. Has enough to prove making first run since leaving Archie Watson following a lengthy absence.

    Verdict
    Made plenty of appeal on paper, but tailed off in a bumper (for Gordon Elliott) in January and fared no better tried in tongue strap when down the field in a Fontwell novice on stable/hurdling debut last month. Needs to leave previous efforts well behind.

    Verdict
    In need of the experience in 2 bumpers, but showed a bit more than on hurdling debut when fourth of 7 in novice at this course (19.7f) last month. However, he'll be of more appeal once handicapping.
