Course hurdles winner who scored at Newcastle on third chase start; firmly in calculations

2-2 over fences at Kelso and could play a leading role now back here
5	Red Happy Chestnut J:Jonathon Bewley T:George Bewley	J:Jonathon Bewley T:George Bewley	144	t	652111	116	142	116	28d	—	—	+28	45	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Rejuvenated 7yo who remains well treated on old form; doubt about this deeper ground

Stamina to prove but he's below his last winning mark and is not ruled out

Shot up weights after 5-timer; soundly beaten latest but could go well if jumping better
1	Floueur Bay J:Tabitha Worsley(3) T:Rebecca Menzies	J:Tabitha Worsley(3) T:Rebecca Menzies	168	t	0188P-	140	-	-	302d	—	—	+21	25.2	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Useful in his prime but has struggled on last three runs; starts out for another new yard

Check betting on second stable start but he has to leave his stable debut run miles behind
