Verdict

YOUDECIDE offered definite signs of promise in a trio of maiden/novice hurdles late last year, not least with a view to stepping up in trip, so he gets the nod on handicap debut before the benefit of market clues. Greenways, back over hurdles. and Irish-raider Victory Star are others fancied to be in the mix.

Verdict
Certainly not without hope on pedigree but low-key efforts in trio maiden/novice hurdles since the turn of the year. In good hands though, so not one to write off now attentions switch to handicaps and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant.

Verdict
Irish point winner. Hasn't bettered modest form in trio of hurdle starts to date but not for first time he displayed signs there's better to come, sixth of 9 in a Kempton maiden (2m) in December. Longer trip promises to suit now handicapping and he's worth a second look.

Verdict
Lightly-raced maiden who ran best race in refitted hood when fourth on handicap debut at Huntingdon (19.6f) in November. However, failed by a long chalk to back that up when well-beaten tenth at Taunton later that month. Absent since.

Verdict
Justified support making yard debut when readily scoring in handicap hurdle at Hereford (21.7f) in November. Best effort since when third at Warwick in January and quickly returns to this sphere following a disappointing chase debut effort latest. Considered with cheekpieces fitted.

Verdict
Maiden who posted one of his better efforts when fifth in an 11-runner Southwell handicap in December. However, he was pulled up back at that venue next time and unseated first at Hereford (19.7f) 4 days ago. Cheekpieces worn then retained here but others more persuasive.

Verdict
Irish raider who won a claimer on Flat at Dundalk (10.7f) 12 months ago. Seen only twice over hurdles upon joining present yard thereafter, disappointing at Fairyhouse in October. Still, it's too soon to be writing him off and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant.

Verdict
Showed more than first time up over hurdles when third in a Stratford novice last summer but she checked out tamely on return/handicap debut upped to 19.8f at Sedgefield 5 weeks ago. Needs to leave that behind if she's to feature.
