Newton Abbot 14:35 Odds Comparison

Produced his best effort of the current campaign to end a long losing at Hereford 10 days ago, though was suited by there being a contested pace. Remains on a workable mark but may not get the race panning out as kindly this time around.

Maiden over hurdles who showed benefit of his reappearance when running out a decisive winner of handicap chase at Taunton in February. Asserted close home when following up over 2½m at Leicester and he's a leading contender upped further in trip.

Gained reward for a string of consistent efforts when resuming winning ways in this sphere at Wincanton in December. Bounced back from a lesser effort when scoring comfortably at Leicester last month and he can make his presence felt.

Recorded a hat-trick last season (over hurdles on the second occasion) but yet to fire in 3 starts this term, faring no better back down in grade when well-beaten fourth of 8 at Sedgefield in February.

Fair winning hurdler at best for Alan Jones. Successful in a point last spring, but making only his second chase start he found it tougher when third of 6 in hunter over C&D in May last year. Off since ahead of first start for Tim Vaughan.

Maiden over hurdles and has gone backwards from this season's reappearance in 2 handicaps since, last of 9 upped to 3m (bred to stay) at Wincanton on latest outing. Has work to do as he goes chasing.

Made the frame on his last 2 starts in Irish points, but didn't offer much in varied events over hurdles and, in first-time cheekpieces, fared no better sent chasing when pulled up in 3m handicap at Exeter last month.

Sole success under Rules came in a C&D handicap back in September 2024. However, has run poorly in 3 of her 4 starts this season, well beaten at Warwick 6 weeks ago, and she's 9 lb out of the weights in this contest.
