Templar Medical Handicap Hurdle

0-9 but was runner-up on handicap debut at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) last month and he filled the same position behind an odds-on rival in a maiden at Ascot (2m3f, good) last time; needs to find more at this new trip but he still has potential and is a half-brother to a 2m7f chase winner.

2m hurdle winner who landed the odds with an easy win in a handicap chase at Hereford (3m1f, good) last Thursday; that was a three-runner race but he won by a long way and is still unexposed at staying trips; major player again off 5lb higher back over hurdles.

Back from a break with a clearcut win over C&D (good to soft) in December and he's finished runner-up in three subsequent starts; up another 2lb but he had a near-miss at Market Rasen (2m7f) last time and this return to quicker ground is no problem (won a point on good to firm); respected.

Won a novice here (2m5f, good to soft) in December 2024 but she's been up and down in handicaps since; finished second of five at Newbury (3m, soft) in February but she didn't fire at Chepstow (2m3f) last time; now goes back up in trip and down in grade but this is competitive and others are more persuasive.

Off the mark with 20-1 win in a handicap here (2m5f, soft) in February but she failed to back that up on her return visit last month; still has low mileage but she needs to resume her progress at this new trip.
