Friday, May 2, 2025ChaseClass 44m

HERE COMES MCCOY has been given a bit of time since pulling up at Lingfield in January on his final start for Olly Murphy. His chase form prior to that had been progressive and he's taken to bounce back with a bang and deny Law of Gold a second win in this race. Jeffery's Cross, a recent Ludlow winner, and Norton Hill complete the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Pretty useful sort who made a promising return when second of 9 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) in December. Pulled up at Lingfield in January (final start for Olly Murphy) but major player if bouncing back to his best for new connections.

    Landed 5-runner hunter at Exeter last March but has pulled up on his last 3 outings under Rules. Did get round in a point a fortnight ago but he was a well-held last of 3 finishers. Blinkers worn then are retained.

    Made a winning hunter debut for his leading yard at Ludlow (3m, good) 9 days ago. Shapes as if he'll stay long distances and looks sure to figure if coping with the quick turnaround.

    Verdict
    A fairly useful winner at 21f over hurdles but failed to build on a promising chase debut for Nicky Henderson in 2024. Has been in reasonable form in the pointing field for this yard lately but it's still probably best to look elsewhere.

    Smart novice chaser in early 2022 but nowhere near that level in a light career under Rules since, including pulling up on Warwick hunter debut in January. Has won a point since but can still only watch here.

    Second in this in 2022 before winning in 2023. Pulled up 12 months ago but a recent point success suggests but he could go well in this again.
