Reigning Champion Hurdler who has found Hurricane Fly too strong in Ireland lately but was much better than result last time (close second when mistake last) and should make bold bid to defend crown.
Tough top-class hurdler who met trouble before running on into third behind Jezki in last year's Champion Hurdle and has won all of his 5 starts since. Sure to go well again.
Front runner who was top class over hurdles (won all 7 starts) and quickly reached a similar standard over fences, easily brushing aside Clarcam in Grade 1 at Leopardstown last time. Hard to oppose.
Landed 2 juvenile events in France and unlucky not to win last year's Fred Winter on first run for this yard, but he's not troubled the judge in 4 starts this term, including over fences. Headgear on.
Expensively bought Irish pointer who showed a bit of promise in maiden/novice hurdles this time last year. Could come into own now chasing but market possibly best guide given length of absence.
Very useful in bumpers and made a winning start over hurdles at Ludlow in December. Below par next time, but very much back on track since, including when fourth in a strong Newbury event. Big player.
Grade 2 winner as a novice and second in Hennesy last season. Better than ever when winning valuable handicap at Kempton in February but needs to put lacklustre effort in Grand National behind him.
Promising sort. Improved to win 8-runner RSA Chase (13/8) at Cheltenham (24.5f, good) 48 days ago by 6 lengths from Southfield Theatre, storming clear. Leading claims.
Found the frame in a couple of bumpers, and didn't need to be at best to make fourth hurdles start a winning one over C&D last month (beat sole rival). Obvious claims once again.
Far from convincing when making all to follow up his victory here over 26f at Wincanton (25f) in April but should have completed hat-trick over C&D recently, kicking on too soon. Should go well again.
Made the most of simple opporunities in maiden/novice company on last 2 starts. The pick of her form suggests she could be well treated off this opening handicap mark.
Winning hurdler who has won twice over fences for Graeme McPherson this year, including at Bangor last month. Races off just a 1 lb higher mark back hurdling for new yard and looks sure to go well.
Further progress when registering second chase win at Bangor (3m) in May. Fair third over hurdles for new yard in June, but cheekpieces need to enable him to pull out more back in this sphere.
King Of The Wolds - (Perth, 17:15) 6/1 2nd Back to best under a positive ride when regaining winning thread at Ayr (25f) in March, but limitations exposed off revised mark at Haydock following month. Eased 2 lb.
Took form to a new level over fences when successful here over 3m in April. Absent since and hurdles mark has shot up on first start over timber for 2 years.
Well backed and benefited from step back up to 3m to resume progress/winning ways in Taunton handicap in March. Creditable fifth at Cheltenham (3m) a month later, and market best guide on chase bow.
Smart hurdler. Below form when fifth of 10 to Killultagh Vic in Irish Daily Mirror Novices' Hurdle at this course (24f, soft, 5/2). back in April. However, very much of interest now chasing.
WHAT A GOODNIGHT in the 1st at stratford today my mate gave me this to follow last year after 2 good wins especially at wetherby was then unseated and last time broke a blood vessel,back on a track where it won a novice handicap chase over C/D has to be worth following from a betting perspective for next 3 or 4 runs,9lb higher than last winning mark but could be more to come. skeltons stable is one I like to follow and I cant wait for WILLOW SAVIOR to jump a fence missed a full season through injury after winning a couple of top handicap hurdles in tremendous style wants softish ground
ooooouuucccchhh decent bet on it drifted to 5s got the race sewn up pulling clear when fell slipped up at the last,thats jump racing got to take the ups and downs

Cannot find Willow Savior. Have put "What A Good Night " into my tracker
High-class staying hurdler (runner-up in World Hurdle in March) who promises to be an even better chaser after his romp in a Grade 1 novice at Aintree in April. Hard to beat.
240 warwick WILLOW SAVIOUR not run for 700 days but I will be following and backing this horse all season needs soft ground was improving over hurdles at a very fast rate won me loads when winning its last 3 runs especially when winning the ladbrook hurdle in its last run beating PITT ZIG who gave it plenty of weight and is a top horse in its own right,could very well need the run but ive been waiting for this to run for a while now...

Rejuvenated since joining this yard, winning twice, scoring with plenty in hand at Wetherby. Had the race at his mercy when falling at the last at Stratford on recent return and can make amends.
