Paxtons Official Case IH Cumbrian Dealer Handicap Hurdle

Not particularly consistent but has a chance on his best form; successful at Carlisle in March (2m3f, good to soft) when wearing a visor for the first time, but well beaten off this 7lb higher mark with same headgear when favourite at Newcastle last time (2m4f, good).

Won a Listed mares' hurdle at Doncaster in March 2024 (3m, soft) and fine effort when fourth in a Grade 1 at Aintree the following month (3m, soft); a bit disappointing since and has been pulled up in two of her last three starts; blinkers replace cheekpieces; stable going well; revival needed.

Cartmel winner off 8lb lower last May (2m6f, soft); in fair form recently, last time finishing 3l fourth of six at Kelso (2m5f, good) when cheekpieces were back on; same headgear here and he's a possible.

Went up 19lb for wins at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) and Southwell (2m4f, good) last year; beaten at odds-on next time but subsequently fair third on chase debut; back over hurdles after pulling up last time; others look better handicapped.
