Knight Templar
KNIGHT TEMPLAR arrives fit from hurdling and might prove the answer at a track where he's tasted success before. Bashful Boy is feared most ahead of former C&D scorer Zoran, the mount of Oisin Murphy.

Needs to shrug off a disappointing effort at Southwell just after Christmas but he won over C&D off 4 lb higher last January and Oisin Murphy takes the reins on him for the first time. A bold show would come as no surprise.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSouthwell2m 102yStandardFlat7/9Kempton Park1m 7f 218yStandard / SlowFlat6/12Southwell2m 102yStandardFlat5/10Uttoxeter2m 3f 207yGoodHurdlepu/14Stratford-on-avon2m 6f 7yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdleur/15- 3(5)Bashful BoyJ: Edward GreatrexT: David Pipe35032-3Age 104/14/17/2

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023 but he has bene shaping up quite well returned to AW in recent weeks. The steady pace didn't suit when 2¼ lengths third of 6 to Appier at Wolverhampton latest and capable of having a big say if getting a stronger gallop to aim at this time.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton2m 120yStandardFlat3/6Southwell2m 102yStandardFlat2/9Kempton Park1m 7f 218yStandard / SlowFlat3/8Taunton2m 3f 1yGood to Firm (Good in places)Hurdle11/13Newmarket (rowley)2m 2fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat11/19- 5(4)EducatorJ: Billy LoughnaneT: Henrietta C Knight48985-5Age 711/211/25/1

Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (25/1) at Lingfield (1½mW) 18 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Significantly up in trip.

Off the mark at the fourth time of asking for new trainer Richard Bandey when making all over 2m at Wolverhampton last month. Did very much enjoy the run of that race so even a 2 lb nudge may be enough to stop him.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton2m 120yStandardFlat1/6Wolverhampton1m 4f 51yStandardFlat3/10Wolverhampton1m 5f 219yStandardFlat3/7Southwell1m 4f 14yStandardFlat6/11Wolverhampton1m 5f 219yStandardFlat1/6- 4(7)I'd Go ManiacJ: Luke CattonT: Alan King35614-Age 79/115/28/1

Went close over 11f here last July but down the field on next 2 Flat outings and also a remote fourth of 5 returned to hurdles at Plumpton last month.
