Verdict
BUCKNA was a bit disappointing upped in trip at Newbury last month, but he's well worth another chance based on his hurdling debut promise, a performance supported by the clock. King Califet ran out a very fortunate winner on his hurdling debut at Newbury but shaped clear second best on the day nonetheless and can be expected to improve, with Sole Solution also of firm interest.

VerdictDual bumper winner who understandably shaped as if needing the run after almost 2 years off when a well-held sixth at Bangor in November. Subsequently chased home a potentially smart novice in Sixmilebridge at Leicester (20.5f, heavy) and likely to progress further. - 2. BucknaJ: James BowenT: Warren GreatrexF: 23

Went backwards upped in trip at Newbury subsequently but well worth another chance. - 1. King CalifetJ: Joe AndersonT: Emma LavelleF: 1

Verdict£110,000 Califet gelding. Dam (c111/h110), 17f-3m hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 23f) Boreham Bill. Runner-up sole start in Irish points and showed clear promise for all that he ran out a very fortunate winner on his Newbury hurdles debut 4 weeks ago. Can improve.
