Monday, March 17, 2025HurdleClass 52m5f

Perhaps the return to hurdles will give PROPER TWELVE a lift following a couple of potentially confidence-damaging scenarios in the early stages of handicap chases at Taunton (unseated at the first) and here (lost his position after being slammed into at the first fence) the last twice. He is now 1 lb lower compared to when scoring over hurdles in May 2023 and the first-time cheekpieces may aid his cause. Vendant is feared back down in trip, while Ivane is of interest on debut for James Owen.

    Verdict
    Successful over 19f for Mitchell Hunt last February. Below that level in 4 runs for Tim Vaughan, his latest run back at Taunton was particularly poor (labouring badly before pulled up approaching the second-last), and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

    Verdict
    Responded well to blinkers/tongue strap when runner-up in a Huntingdon handicap chase (23.6f, heavy) in December. Has failed to complete both subsequent starts but couldn't rule out back hurdling off an attractive mark.

    Verdict
    Twice a winner over fences, latterly off a 3 lb higher mark at Fakenham last spring. It's been a struggle since his encouraging reappearance second at Plumpton in October but he's another that returns to hurdles on a workable mark, so all is certainly not lost.

    Verdict
    Just the one win from 24 starts overall for Ciaran Murphy in Ireland, with a lack of consistency a notable feature. Conversely, he wouldn't be the first to benefit from the switch to the James Owen yard and it'll be interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting.

    Verdict
    Placed in points and left previous form in this sphere a long way behind when a fine second over this C&D (soft) in January. Step up to 25f didn't quite work out at Plumpton next time but this lightly-raced 7-y-o is of strong interest back at this trip.

    Verdict
    Shaped well upped to 20.5f when fourth of 10 on handicap debut at Plumpton last March. Failed to build on that next time but there were at least some signs of encouragement on his belated reappearance at Taunton last month and he's entitled to come on for that spin.

    Verdict
    Hit the target between the flags back in October 2022 but overall record in that sphere is hardly compelling (that success is his sole win from 11 starts in points) and he hasn't shown a great deal in a handful of appearances under Rules. Debut for new yard.

    Fairly useful Flat winner but has underachieved over hurdles so far, continuing the theme of disappointment in this sphere when a well-beaten fifth over C&D last time, hanging badly right throughout.

    Verdict
    Bumper winner who was runner-up twice prior to opening hurdles account in 15-runner Plumpton handicap (20.5f, soft) in December. Pulled up at Wincanton later that month and absent since, but she shouldn't be judged too harshly on that and will have a chance if able to bounce back.

    Verdict
    Fair way behind second-placed Ask Her Out when third over 19f here in November but improved when landing a Plumpton handicap (20.5f, good to soft) next time. Misfired dropped to 2m at the same course on latest start, adding to what has become a patchy profile.

    Verdict
    Seemed suited by the switch to prominent tactics when breaking longstanding maiden tag over fences here last spring. However, she hasn't shown much in 4 runs this season, taking record in this sphere to 0-15 when beaten a long way over C&D in a first-time hood (retained) last time.

    Verdict
    Showed he can be competitive from a basement mark when third of 10 at Lingfield last February but that is very much a standout effort, which she doesn't appear likely to repeat anytime soon judged on last month's poor display back at that track.
