YOU SOME GIRL isn't straightforward but won well at Newcastle under Charlie Maggs last week and can follow up under a penalty if in the same form. Planet Legend might be the danger.

Verdict
Finally got off the mark as a hurdler in 3m Newcastle handicap last week, hard to believe it took her so long given the way she won, no inkling of her getting out of it after she scythed through the field under this rider. Good chance under penalty having landed a bumper here.

Verdict
Placed in 3 handicaps in a row at around this trip this year, finding only one too good back from a break at Worcester in September. Folded as though amiss at Huntingdon since, but clear shout if shrugging that off, and expected to kick on in front.

Hurdles winner for yard at the start of the year and also opened account on the level in 2m handicap here last month. Needs more from this mark.

Modest handicap hurdler, last win came in this in 2022 while he was third last year. More needed.
