Premier
PREMIER comes here on the up and can quickly resume winning ways on the back of an excellent Newbury third. Fellow C&D scorer Phoenix Risen is in fine form too so should ensure Warren Greatrex's 4-y-o doesn't have things all his own way though, while Imaginarium, Teorie and Courageous Strike all enter calculations too in this competitive handicap.

Arrives better than ever, going in over C&D in December before posting an excellent third of 11 in handicap at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) 20 days ago when faring best of those held up. Capable of further progress.

Fairly useful Irish Flat winner who signed off last season with success in 2m Perth handicap in April. Off 8 months before coming in last of 8 in 2m Sandown handicap (good to soft) 31 days ago but no surprise to see him bounce back under these more testing conditions.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosSandown Park1m 7f 216yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle8/8Perth2m 47yGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle1/14Exeter2m 161yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdlepu/8Huntingdon1m 7f 171yGood to SoftHurdle1/8Ffos Las1m 7f 182yGood to SoftHurdle5/12- 4TeorieJ: Lorcan MurtaghE: Daisy Hitchins-625505Âge 67/18/115/2

It's now 11 runs since his last win in 2024 and he jumped none too fluently when a below-form fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (19.8f, heavy) 19 days ago.

A three-time winner over hurdles in 2024. Below form both runs back in this sphere of late but not totally disgraced when fifth of 8 at Ffos Las (2m) 26 days ago. 6 lb "wrong" in the weights here though.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosFfos Las1m 7f 182yHeavyHurdle5/8Hereford2m 53ySoftHurdlepu/15Bath1mHeavyFlat5/9Bath1m 2f 37yGood to SoftFlat5/12Ffos Las1mSoftFlat8/8
