GAVIN ran well when finding just an improver too good on his return over C&D 3 weeks ago and can notch up a third course success if in the same form. John Betjeman ended a losing run at Newton Abbot recently and can go well again back at the scene of his other wins. Privilege is another to consider.

    Verdict
    C&D winner well supported back down in trip here after 5 months off and ran better than for a while, arguably a bit unfortunate to come up against an improver. There doesn't look to be too many of them in opposition now and he can go well.

    Well suited by a strongly-run race when winning 13-runner 2m handicap hurdle at Hexham in March. Bit disappointing at Plumpton next time but should bounce back.

    Verdict
    Ended losing run in 17f Newton Abbot handicap in the mud a fortnight ago in a first-time visor, doing so in tenacious fashion. Still fairly treated after a 5 lb rise and his other 3 wins were over C&D.

    Showed her first form in this sphere after 4 months off at Ludlow 5 weeks ago, despite clearly shaping as if a sharp 2m wasn't enough of a test.

    Verdict
    Flat winner in 2023 for Clive Cox and has proved inconsistent over hurdles for this yard, failing to build on a better effort at Hereford (first-time cheekpieces) when well backed and well beaten at Stratford last time.

    Verdict
    Ran a couple of good races last month having joined Billy Aprahamian, jumping right and beaten fair and square by an unexposed one who possessed more gears at Haydock (bare 2m) latest. One to consider back handicapping starting out for another trainer.

    Fair form in bumpers and third in 2m Southwell maiden hurdle in February. Seemed to get bogged down in the mud at Exeter next time and could do better now handicapping on a sounder surface.

    Some signs of ability in a couple of bumpers but she's shown nothing since switched to hurdles, including in handicaps the last twice. Mark dropping all the while.
