Precious Man
PRECIOUS MAN surrendered crucial experience when runner-up to One Horse Town at Cheltenham in November and having since landed the odds over C&D last month, is fancied to reverse that earlier form on 5 lb better terms. The Harry Derham inmate remains the obvious threat with cheekpieces on, with La Luna Artista perhaps best of the rest.

Looked highly promising in France for Daniela Mele when winning second of 2 starts over hurdles at Auteuil (17.5f, soft) last May. Had breathing operation following runner-up effort to One Horse Town at Cheltenham and left clear when landing the odds over C&D last month. More to come.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKempton Park2mGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle1/8Cheltenham2m 87yHeavy (Soft in places)Hurdle2/8Auteuil2m 1f 88yVery softHurdle1/9Auteuil1m 6f 201ySoftHurdle2/14- 1One Horse TownJ: Paul O'BrienT: Harry Derham111132Age 43/13/110/3

Fair Flat winner for this yard and won first 4 stats over hurdles, including making all in Cheltenham Grade 2 in November. Hasn't done a great deal wrong in finishing placed both starts since at the same venue and he's the obvious threat to Precious Man. Cheekpieces worn on the level back on.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCheltenham2m 179ySoftHurdle2/10Cheltenham2m 179yGood to SoftHurdle3/10Cheltenham2m 87yHeavy (Soft in places)Hurdle1/8Kempton Park2mGood (Good to Firm in Places)Hurdle1/5Stratford-on-avon2m 70yGood to Firm (Good in places)Hurdle1/8- 5Fantasy WorldJ: Nico de BoinvilleT: Nicky Henderson4Age 415/215/27/1

A useful performer on Flat who signed off for Andrew Balding with victory in 1m6f Ascot listed race in October. Changed hands for 600,000 gns after and was most disappointing on hurdles debut at Musselburgh on Sunday. Turns out quickly and has to be capable of better.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosMusselburgh1m 7f 124yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle4/11Ascot1m 6f 34yGood to SoftFlat1/8Haydock Park1m 6f 1yGoodFlat3/10York1m 5f 188yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/12Yarmouth1m 3f 104ySoftFlat1/12- 6La Luna ArtistaJ: Ciaran GethingsT: Mrs Jane Williams115Age 48/18/19/1

Won Exeter bumper on debut in October and followed up in 2m Warwick juvenile hurdle a month later. Fared about as well as could be expected when fifth of 10 in Grade 2 Finesse at Cheltenham last month but has work to do with One Horse Town.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCheltenham2m 179ySoftHurdle5/10Warwick2mGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle1/7Exeter1m 5f 38yGood to FirmBumper1/7- 3AllureJ: James ReveleyT: N.

Useful on Flat (stays 15f) for A. Fabre. ½-length second of 14 to Mieszko in juvenile at Fontainebleau on hurdling debut, left clear 2 out but caught late on. Given time to get over that and he's open to improvement. Tongue tie on.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFontainebleau2m 1f 142yVery softHurdle2/14Deauville1m 4f 94yVery softFlat8/10Longchamp1m 6f 201yVery softFlat5/7Deauville1m 6f 201yGood to softFlat3/11Saint-cloud1m 6f 201ySoftFlat1/6- 4Falls Of AcharnJ: Harry CobdenT: Paul Nicholls16Age 422/122/120/1

Progressive dual winner on Flat in Ireland for Jessica Harrington and completed hat-trick on hurdles debut for Paul Nicholls at Musselburgh on New Year's Day. Too free to make an impact in listed company back there 3 weeks ago but he's in the right hands.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosMusselburgh1m 7f 124yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle6/6Musselburgh1m 7f 124yGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle1/10Cork1mYieldingFlat1/14Leopardstown1mGoodFlat1/10Curragh1m 2fGoodFlat6/19
