Fairly useful hurdler; up in trip for Flat handicap debut; could be very dangerous

Has modest strike-rate but finished well for close third over C&D last month

Won 1m4f classified here last month and could plausibly have untapped potential over 2m

Safely held in three handicaps (1m-1m2f) but this hike up in trip is an interesting move

Went close over 1m4f here in February and last month's C&D fifth was also a good effort
9 (9)	Adrian Grey J:Shay Farmer(5) T:Bernard Llewellyn	J:Shay Farmer(5) T:Bernard Llewellyn	124	b	42308-	46	71	-	—	—	—	+1	3.9	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Back from break on career-low mark but has not won since 2021; difficult to enthuse over
1 (4)	Chillhi Bay J:Liam Wright(3) T:Barry John Murphy	J:Liam Wright(3) T:Barry John Murphy	138	—	31066-	60	69	33	—	—	—	+4	7	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Well beaten over hurdles on stable debut on Tuesday; back on Flat with fair bit to prove
3 (2)	Regally Blonde Chestnut J:Connor Planas T:Ben Case	J:Connor Planas T:Ben Case	136	p	24107-	58	72	-	207d	—	—	+6	8.8	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Dual turf winner last summer; resumes on fairly tough mark; rarely seen on AW
