Record of 6-54 and his last win was at Kempton (1m4f) in January; hasn't posed a serious threat in two runs for current yard but he's had traffic issues on both occasions and was beaten less than 2l at Southwell (1m3f) last time; on same mark here and he's a big player if things go more to plan.
Comment
Didn't get much luck when third at Southwell latest and he's an interesting contender
Quotes
"I didn't want to hit the front too soon on Sisterandbrother as he was keen early and he picked them up well. I don't know how strong the race was but it was only his second run over hurdles so he could be a fun summer horse - Harry Cobden, jockey."

His last win was in July 2022 but he returned to the Flat for new yard with a front-running third at Pontefract (1m2f, good; tongue-tie added) two weeks ago; that was an encouraging effort after a break and he has possibilities if he can build on that.
Comment
On long losing run but he ran well for a long way back on the Flat last month; in the mix
Quotes
"Piecederesistance is a horse whose taken a little bit of time to get to know. We've given him a bit of time and hopefully he's going to repay us. He was too buzzed up over hurdles, we gave him the winter off, we sent him to Cindy Burnett to do some flat work with and that's been the making of him. Billy (Garritty) said he'd be better in a better race when they go that bit quicker - Micky Hammond, trainer."

Form figures of 323 in maiden/novice events but he's been well held in four handicaps; may have had stamina issues over 2m at Lingfield (AW) last month but he needs to raise his game on this big drop back in trip.

Inconsistent sort with record of 1-16; finished behind Sisterandbrother when fifth at Southwell (1m3f) last month but a close third in big field over C&D on her reappearance in March; has claims if she can recapture that form and her win was on good ground.
Comment
Hard to predict but looks interesting on her close third over C&D in March; dangerous

Won on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last April but he's 0-9 since and has been well held in four runs this year; now 10lb lower than for his win but he weakened quickly at Nottingham three weeks ago and others are preferred; cheekpieces (tried once last year) are reapplied.
Comment
Just one win from 13 starts and he's been well held in last eight runs; others preferred

Won at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last spring but he's struggled in his last eight starts including over hurdles in last two runs; now 10lb lower than for his last success but he needs a big turnaround for new yard (has changed hands and left Mike Smith); hood removed and cheekpieces return.
Comment
Has struggled under both codes for his current yard and needs a big turnaround

Just one placed effort from 30 starts and and he's struggled in three runs for new yard this spring; has lots to prove and he was withdrawn after bolting before the start at Beverley 12 days ago; stablemate of Recobella.
