C'EST QUELQU'UN looks ready to end his losing run having gone close from out of the weights at Sedgefield 3 weeks ago. This does look competitive, though, with Dr Shirocco and Super Citizen heading the dangers.

Verdict
Consistent sort who deservedly got his head back in front in a 4-runner Carlisle handicap (24.5f, good) last month. Creditable second at Kelso since and should give another good account.

Verdict
Low mileage point/hurdles winner who made a decent start over fences when a back-to-form second at Newcastle in March. However, ran poorly when well backed in this headgear there later that month so needs to bounce back .

Narrow winner of a handicap chase at Cartmel last summer but it was a low-key 2024 otherwise. Off 6 months and others preferred.

Verdict
Now 13 runs since his last win in 2023 but went close from 3 lb out of the handicap at Sedgefield 3 weeks ago so claims off the same mark back down in class.

Verdict
Successful over C&D a year ago (second win here) and left low-key reappearance behind when scoring at Musselburgh (23.6f, good to soft) in November. Excuses last 2 starts so not taken lightly back on a winning mark.

Fair 2m winner over hurdles but just modest form at best in this sphere and only fourth of 5 at Sedgefield on yard debut/return 3 weeks ago.

Tumbled down the weights and posted best effort for some time when third of 16 in handicap hurdle at Ayr (24.3f, heavy, 25/1) 56 days ago. Claims if building on that on belated chase bow.
