GOLD CLERMONT is potentially well handicapped on her best form and could be worth chancing on debut for powerful yard. Last year's winner Unanswered Prayers is the obvious threat having made an encouraging return at Cheltenham, with the thriving Shantou Lucky completing the shortlist.

    Gradually got his act together in this sphere, scoring here (26f) in February. Enhanced good record at this track when second on return and not taken lightly.

    Better than ever and likeably consistent over hurdles and fences since joining the James Owen stable, bagging a fourth win for the yard in staying event at Sedgefield. Ran well despite let down by jumping when second of 3 at Plumpton 2 weeks ago.

    Consistent rather than progressive over hurdles and rather fortunate to make a winning start over fences at Newton Abbot on return last season. Failed to build on that after but did at least end the campaign with a decent third at Ffos Las.

    The latest of his 4 wins over fences came in a Plumpton handicap in March 2024. Ended last season on a downer but reappearance spin at Fontwell was encouraging and he built on that when third at Hereford.

    Clearly had his issues over hurdles last season but looked better than ever following another breathing operation when making a winning return/chase bow at Plumpton last month. Will find this a lot more demanding, though.

    C&D winner more miss than hit last season but more encouraging signs with cheekpieces added on last 2 starts and she's made a very interesting yard switch ahead of return. Very much one to note following wind surgery. Engaged 13.17 Uttoxeter Saturday.
