Ludlow 16:20 Odds Comparison

Handicap hurdle winner at Cork last April on his final run for Stuart Crawford but well held all 4 starts for current yard, including over fences.

Runner-up in valuable Newbury bumper on debut and opened account over hurdles at Wincanton in December 2024. Yet to build on that promise, though he hinted at more to come when fifth at Huntingdon (2m) in December and longer trip may suit despite his free-going ways.

Two-time 3m novice winner over hurdles in 2024 and bounced back to something like his best (returned to positive tactics) when runner-up in a 3m2f handicap at Warwick on New Year's Eve. Shaped as if still in form when fourth at Market Rasen last month and respected back down in trip.

In frame on 3 of his 4 outings last season but recent form has been patchy and predictably found things too competitive when seventh of 14 in a well-contested handicap hurdle at Windsor (16f, soft, 100/1) 62 days ago. Vulnerable to less exposed rivals again.

Has proved expensive to follow since making a winning hurdles debut at Uttoxeter in November 2024, often flattering to deceive.

On the up in the summer with wins in handicap at Warwick and novice at Newton Abbot. Might have needed the run after a 4-month break at Ascot in November but arrives here after a similar absence.

Winless since completing a hat-trick as a juvenile hurdler but showed promise from a reduced mark when third in a 15-runner handicap at Huntingdon in January. Just a respectable effort when filling the same position at Fontwell last month. Cheekpieces sported there are retained.

Stoutly-bred mare who showed much improved form on her second start in handicaps to win a 12-runner event over C&D (soft) last month. 8 lb higher now but she's not yet fully exposed.

Largely respectable efforts in handicaps during 2023/24 campaign but went with little promise returning from 21 months off at Wetherby on Boxing Day.
