ANALIESE should have more to come on the back of her Hereford success and is narrowly preferred to fellow hurdle winner Believitanducan. Across Earth may prove best of the remainder.

Signed off for Jessica Macey with a 2m Flat win at Beverley and followed up in 2m Newbury juvenile on hurdle debut. Well beaten when stepped up to Grade 2 level at Cheltenham since but retains potential with sights lowered.

Buck's Boum gelding. Dam (h87) maiden hurdler. In goods hands so would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong on debut.

Fair maiden on the Flat. Lost his way for Ollie Sangster towards the end of 2024 and showed only minor promise when well-held fourth on Newbury hurdle debut last month.

Well held in 2 bumpers. Sprung a 25/1 surprise on Fontwell hurdle debut but the form is barely modest and he was well beaten under a penalty at Newbury since.
