2	Made a winning start over hurdles at Ascot and while his inexperience was still evident when fifth in Haydock Grade 2 last month, he's well worth another chance back in a thin novice. 1st Pick 2 Whiskey Yankee Jockey: Dylan Johnston Trainer: Sam Thomas J: Dylan Johnston T: Sam Thomas	100	-	-	-	56%

1	Confirmed the promise of his Leicester second when going one better in a 4-runner novice at Uttoxeter (soft) on New Year's Eve, though not for first time looked a hard ride when last in Grade 2 at Haydock latest. Sights very much lowered, however, and ground/track will suit. 2nd Pick 1 Lon Chaney (Ire) Jockey: Sean Bowen Trainer: Olly Murphy J: Sean Bowen T: Olly Murphy	94	-	-	-	56%

4	In contention when unseating rider 3 out only start in Irish points (Feb 2025) and still in need of experience when well held third in 4-runner C&D novice hurdle last month. Entitled to improve for that, though has plenty to find on the bare form. 3rd Pick 4 Soldier For Glory (Ire) Jockey: Ben Jones Trainer: Rebecca Curtis J: Ben Jones T: Rebecca Curtis	86	-	-	-	17%
