Tomorrow, July 7, 2025HurdleClass 52m7f

Question marks linger over most of these for one reason or another. ONEFORTHEFAIRGREEN remains a maiden and her temperament isn't all it could be, but she is nevertheless worth chancing on the back of a fair effort over 20.4f at Southwell where she shaped as though the extra yardage here will be in her favour. Stamina Chope is interesting off a reduced mark, despite this being her first run since last June, while Champetre and Faded Fantasy are others to consider.

    Verdict
    Resumed winning ways in a 9-runner handicap hurdle at Stratford (26.4f, good) last July. Pulled well clear of the rest when chasing home the progressive Saint Bibiana (winner again since) back from a break at Warwick last month, but his sketchy jumping continues to be a significant drawback.

    Verdict
    Winless following 16 starts overall (0-10 in this sphere), but she wasn't disgraced when fourth of 12 with a first-time tongue strap enlisted (retained) at Southwell (20.4f, good) last month. Worth another crack at this trip judged on that evidence and she's one for the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Winless since 2022 and, despite signs of encouragement when third at Warwick in November, he's failed to reproduce form akin to that since and he's probably worth taking on, for all that his mark continues to slide southwards.

    Verdict
    Yet to score, but he's a consistent sort and wasn't disgraced after 7 months off when fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (3m, good) in May. Live each-way chance if able to shrug off a lesser show at Southwell next time.

    Verdict
    Sole previous visit here resulted in a C&D handicap in September, but that is starting to look like something of a false dawn in light of her subsequent efforts. Hopes now pinned on the first-time visor helping to spark a turnaround.

    Verdict
    Capable when in the mood, as he demonstrated when landing a 7-runner Southwell handicap (20.4f, good) without breaking sweat in March. Below par over this C&D next time, but 10-week break ahead of that race may have been a factor and, now 2 lb lower, he will be a threat if on-song.

    Verdict
    Returned to form when winning over 25f at Plumpton back in October 2023. Not in the same form all 4 subsequent starts and 12-month absence to overcome, but she's dangerous to discount having slipped to an attractive mark.

    Verdict
    Both previous wins gained here and, though the latest was gained back in May 2023, he posted his best effort for a while when third of 13 at Southwell last month, despite again racing lazily. 1 lb lower now and he needs considering.

    Verdict
    Winner over fences off 10 lb higher at Fakenham during the winter, but hasn't reproduced that form by a long chalk since, failing to complete all 3 starts following another round of wind surgery during the spring, including in this sphere at Southwell in May.

    Verdict
    Point winner who left poor hurdles debut display behind when chasing home Miss Goldfire (winner again since) in a mares' Fontwell novice (21.7f, good) in April. However, it would be something of an understatement to say that she has failed to build on that in 2 subsequent appearances.
